and sizes for you and your wp accounts to save time, site speed, SEO score, disk

### Features

 * Automatically optimize all future uploads.

 * Set compression level from 0 to 10 (also for PNG).
 * Ignore roles for all set resize settings.
 * Don’t leave unnecessary files on the server.
 * No change in the upload process at all.
 * Easy setup.

### Try our PRO version

The Pro version of Resize Control offers advanced features such as:

 * Customize resize control per post type, allowing for different settings for products,
   blogs, etc.
 * Convert any image automatically to JPG or WEBP, not just PNG to JPG.
 * Choose between different resize methods: cover, contain, fill, and scale down.
 * Set default background colors for resizing.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `resize-control` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. In the dashboard sidebar, click on “Resize control” to go to the “general” screen.
 4. Here, you can activate resizing globally and you can choose which WP roles shouldn’t
    be affected by the resize/optimization options (e.g., the admin role).
 5. Now go to “Per post type” in the sidebar and click “default” to set overarching
    options for all post types.
 6. Enter “Image dimensions,” check the option to convert png to jpg, and set the compression
    level.
 7. Click “Save.” All future uploads should now be automatically resized and compressed.
