## Leírás

MegaOptim 2.0 is a WordPress image optimizer built around three goals:

 1. **Further compress existing WebP and AVIF images.** Next-gen formats are already
    small — MegaOptim 2.0 squeezes more out of them while keeping originals intact.
 2. **Convert old JPG, PNG, and GIF images to WebP or AVIF.** Modernize your Media 
    Library and serve next-gen formats to supported browsers, with the original file
    preserved as a fallback.
 3. **Optimize old formats in place.** Make JPEG and PNG smaller without changing the
    format — useful when you want savings but don’t want a next-gen conversion. GIF,
    WebP, and AVIF compression are available through MegaOptim Cloud.

The plugin is **free** when you use the local method (GD or Imagick on your server).
For smarter compression — including further optimization of existing WebP and AVIF
files — add an API key and use **MegaOptim Cloud**, available for around **$54 per
year** on **unlimited sites**.

#### Why Use MegaOptim?

 * Further compress existing WebP and AVIF images for extra savings
 * Convert JPEG, PNG, and GIF images to WebP or AVIF
 * Optimize JPEG and PNG in place with no format change (GIF/WebP/AVIF compression
   via Cloud)
 * Bulk process the WordPress Media Library
 * Browse and process folders outside the Media Library
 * Free local processing or smarter MegaOptim Cloud compression
 * Automatically convert or compress newly uploaded images
 * Serve WebP and AVIF with Apache `.htaccess` or PHP passthru
 * Track background jobs with a built-in queue monitor
 * Restore compressed originals from backup or remove generated next-gen files
 * Optionally process retina images generated by WP Retina 2x / Perfect Images
 * Use WP-CLI for bulk conversion, stats, reset, logs, and queue tools

#### Free Local Processing or MegaOptim Cloud

MegaOptim works without an API key. If your server has GD or Imagick, you can convert
JPEG/PNG/GIF to WebP, generate AVIF where your server supports it, and compress 
JPEG and PNG entirely on your own server — free, forever. GIF, WebP, and AVIF compression
are available via MegaOptim Cloud.

For noticeably better results — including further compression of existing WebP and
AVIF images, smarter JPEG/PNG optimization, and broader AVIF support — add a MegaOptim
API key. MegaOptim Cloud offloads processing from your server and costs just **$
54 per year** for **unlimited sites**. Get an API key from [the MegaOptim dashboard](https://app.megaoptim.com/)
and see plans at [MegaOptim pricing](https://megaoptim.com/pricing/).

#### What MegaOptim 2.0 Can Do

 * Next-gen optimization: Further compress existing WebP and AVIF images through
   MegaOptim Cloud
 * Convert mode: Generate WebP or AVIF versions from JPEG, PNG, and GIF images
 * Compress mode: Optimize original images in place (no format change) with local
   or smart cloud compression
 * Media Library view: Process individual images, selected images, or run bulk jobs
   across the library
 * File System view: Browse folders on your server and bulk-process images outside
   the Media Library
 * Upload automation: Automatically convert or compress new uploads in the background
 * Delivery settings: Choose Apache `.htaccess` rules or PHP passthru rewriting 
   to serve WebP and AVIF
 * Queue monitor: Watch active jobs, progress, failures, and background processing
   state
 * Tools page: Run restore actions for compressed originals or remove generated 
   WebP/AVIF derivatives
 * Restore support: Restore compressed images from backup and regenerate thumbnails
 * Logging and diagnostics: Use the built-in log viewer and queue statistics through
   WP-CLI
 * Retina support: Optionally process `@2x` images created by WP Retina 2x or Perfect
   Images

#### Originals Preserved

MegaOptim 2.0 keeps your original uploads in place and generates next-gen derivatives
alongside them. On the front end, MegaOptim serves the best format the visitor’s
browser supports while keeping the original file available as a fallback.

#### Migration From Older MegaOptim Versions

MegaOptim 2.0 includes background migration for legacy settings and older attachment
data. Existing users can upgrade and let MegaOptim migrate data in batches, with
progress shown inside the admin UI while migration is running.

## Telepítés

 1. Upload the MegaOptim plugin to `/wp-content/plugins/` or install it through the
    WordPress plugin screen.
 2. Activate the plugin.
 3. In WordPress admin, go to `Media > MegaOptim`.
 4. Open `Settings` and choose the local method (free) or add a MegaOptim API key for
    cloud processing.
 5. Configure your conversion format, compression options, upload automation, and delivery
    method.
 6. Go to the `Optimizer` page to process Media Library images, or switch to `File 
    System` view to process folders on your server.

## GYIK

### Can MegaOptim further compress existing WebP and AVIF images?

Yes — this is a main focus of MegaOptim 2.0. MegaOptim Cloud can take WebP and AVIF
files you already have and reduce them further, in addition to working on JPG, PNG,
and GIF.

### Does MegaOptim work without an API key?

Yes. The plugin is free with the local method. If your server has GD or Imagick,
you can do WebP conversion (JPEG/PNG/GIF sources), local AVIF generation where supported,
and JPEG/PNG compression at no cost. MegaOptim Cloud is needed for smarter compression,
compressing GIF / WebP / AVIF files, and further optimization of existing WebP/AVIF
files.

### How much does MegaOptim Cloud cost?

The cloud plan is about **$54 per year** and works on **unlimited sites**. It provides
smarter compression, offloads work from your server, and unlocks further optimization
of existing WebP and AVIF files.

### How do I convert JPEG to WebP in WordPress?

Install and activate MegaOptim, open `Media > MegaOptim`, choose `Convert` mode,
set the output format to `WebP`, and start a bulk job from the Media Library or 
File System view.

### Can I convert PNG images to AVIF?

Yes. MegaOptim can generate AVIF images through MegaOptim Cloud, or locally where
your server supports AVIF encoding. If your server does not support local AVIF encoding,
use MegaOptim Cloud.

### Can MegaOptim convert GIF images to WebP or AVIF?

Yes. MegaOptim 2.0 can convert GIF images to next-gen formats as part of its conversion
workflow, alongside JPG and PNG.

### Can I just optimize JPEG and PNG without converting them?

Yes. Use `Compress` mode to reduce file size while keeping the original format. 
Local compression handles JPEG and PNG, runs free on your server, and uses fixed
quality levels. MegaOptim Cloud additionally compresses GIF, WebP, and AVIF — and
applies Smart Compression (SSIM-tuned per image) for smaller files at visually identical
quality.

### What is the difference between Convert and Compress?

Convert creates next-gen WebP or AVIF files alongside the original image. `Compress`
optimizes the image in its existing format — including further compressing existing
WebP and AVIF files — without changing the format.

### Why use MegaOptim Cloud compression instead of local compression?

Local compression is free and runs entirely on your own server. MegaOptim Cloud 
is the recommended option when you want smarter compression, further optimization
of existing WebP and AVIF images, and less CPU and memory usage on your hosting.
The cloud plan is **$54 per year** for **unlimited sites**.

### Can MegaOptim automatically convert uploaded images?

Yes. You can enable automatic conversion or automatic compression for newly uploaded
images. MegaOptim processes those jobs in the background so new uploads can be handled
without manual bulk actions.

### How are WebP and AVIF images served on the front end?

MegaOptim can serve next-gen images through Apache `.htaccess` rules or a PHP passthru
delivery mode. Both options are designed to serve WebP and AVIF to supported browsers
while keeping the original image as a fallback.

### Can I restore my original images?

Yes. If you compressed originals with backups enabled, MegaOptim can restore the
original image and regenerate thumbnails. You can also remove generated WebP and
AVIF derivative files without changing the original upload.

### Can I process folders outside the Media Library?

Yes. MegaOptim 2.0 includes a File System view that lets you browse server folders
and bulk-process images outside the WordPress Media Library.

### Does MegaOptim support WP-CLI?

Yes. Current commands include `wp megaoptim convert`, `wp megaoptim stats`, `wp 
megaoptim reset`, `wp megaoptim log`, `wp megaoptim queue:process`, and `wp megaoptim
queue:stats`.

### What happens when I upgrade from an older MegaOptim version?

MegaOptim 2.0 migrates legacy settings and attachment data in the background. If
migration is needed, the plugin shows a migration progress banner in the admin area
while the old data is being imported into the new 2.0 tables.

## Változási napló

#### 2.0.2

 * File System view: Convert and Compress now work on folders and single files, 
   with live progress via the shared browser-worker loop (same mechanism as the 
   Media Library bulk flow).
 * Fix: Convert no longer drops thumbnail siblings. Every thumbnail size now produces
   its own `.webp` / `.avif` next to the source file.
 * Fix: forced re-convert kept the freshly converted files instead of wiping them
   at the end of the run.
 * Polished folder modal (mode-aware hero, force re-process toggle, cancel-during-
   run, per-file failure list).

#### 2.0.0

 * Complete refactor of the plugin (Vue 3 admin, modern PHP architecture, new conversion
   engine for WebP/AVIF, File System view, queue monitor, WP-CLI commands).
 * Backwards compatible: legacy v1.x mode remains available and existing settings/
   attachment data are migrated in the background.
