Preguntas frecuentes
-
What does the speed of image compression depend on?
-
Because the compression process happens directly into your browser – it depends on your device’s performance.
-
Image compression process seems to be stuck. The browser doesn’t respond.
-
It may happen if you are trying to compress a PNG image with a high resolution. In that case, you should wait a while, until the image finishes its compression or a “Request timed out.” error message occurs.
-
How to fix a “Request timed out” error
-
Go to the plugin’s setting page (Media -> Squeeze Settings).
At the “Basic Settings” tab increase the value of the field “Compression timeout (in seconds)”. By default it equals 60 seconds, try to make it bigger. If the error still persists, that means the script cannot process your image. -
How does the plugin work?
-
The plugin uses client-side compression algorithms and provides you with the ability to compress images in your WordPress media library or during the image upload process.
-
How are the images processed? Are they sent to an external server?
