Speed boost with Smart image resizer pro

    I have for months the Pro version.
    My goals of this plugin is to compress the already uploaded photo’s so they are smaller.
    The image compression on Smart Image Pro is 10%, but how far can I go?
    If I place new products to I need to do every time a thumbnail regeneration?
    I did the regeneration only 1 time, that was months ago when I start with this plugin.
    In the documentation I can not find any information about that.

    Reason is that the product categories and single products load very slow.
    I assume it is because of the photos that are to big.
    For now the resolution is 600×600 for thumbnail, single thumbnail and gallery thumbnail.
    Hope someone can help me so the site loads much faster.
    Most photo’s are around 40kb and have a size of 600×600

    Hi @0108daniel

    The image compression on Smart Image Pro is 10%, but how far can I go?

    If your images are in high resolution, consider setting the compression to around 50% to achieve a good balance between image quality and file size.

    Keep in mind that if original images are big you can scale them down by adding the following WordPress filter to your child theme’s functions.php file:

    add_filter('big_image_size_threshold', function(){
return 1500;
});

    The code snippet above will resize your images to a maximum of 1500px for the width or height.

    If I place new products to I need to do every time a thumbnail regeneration?

    Thumbnail regeneration is necessary only for images that were uploaded prior to installing the plugin or when you make changes to the settings.

    I hope this helps! If you need any further assistance with the pro version feel free to email support[at]sirplugin.com
