PixCompress compresses JPEG, PNG, WebP, and GIF files in the WordPress media library while keeping the same filenames, URLs, and dimensions. Themes, page builders, and existing posts keep working.
All local features work after you activate the plugin. No license key, account, or payment is required to compress images, run Compress library, restore backups, or auto-optimize new uploads.
Why it is safe
- Public URLs never change
- Dimensions stay the same unless you turn on optional resizing
- Animated GIFs and animated WebP are skipped
- If compression does not shrink the file, or the result is invalid, the original is kept
- Originals are backed up privately so any image can be restored
- WebP copies are extra files unless you enable replacement
Easy admin

- Image library with search, filters, optimize, re-optimize, and restore
- Quality presets: visually lossless, balanced, smaller files, or custom

- Media library column and bulk actions
- Optional paid support plans from the author, if you want them
External services
PixCompress compresses images on your own server with GD or Imagick. That does not require an account.
If you open PixCompress → License, the plugin may request the public plan list from the author website
https://www.itsolutionspot.com/ . That request sends only a plugin user-agent. No site content or images are uploaded.
If you paste a license key and click Activate, the plugin sends that key and your site URL to
https://www.itsolutionspot.com/ so the author can record the optional commercial license. This is optional and does not enable or disable local optimization.
Paid checkout, if you choose it, happens on the author website and may use PayPal. Author website:
