## Opis
**Australcode Uniform Images** solves the classic WooCommerce catalog problem: product
photos with different proportions that the theme crops brutally to align the grid.
This plugin makes them uniform without cropping — it adds smart padding over a colored
canvas (white by default), optionally trims the uniform background first to normalize
inconsistent margins, and delivers each thumbnail in AVIF + WebP + JPEG using the`
` element. The result: **same size product images** across your whole shop—
resize product images without cropping and regenerate product thumbnails in bulk,
with no catalog limit.
#### Key differentiators
* **Alt text from the product, not the filename** — your uploads are called `IMG_4832.
jpg`. Image SEO reads the WooCommerce product title, category and brand and writes
real alt text: “Vape Pod XYZ — Pods, Brand Z”. Automatic on every new upload,
free, no AI and no API calls. It never overwrites alt text you wrote yourself.
* **No accidental crops** — the entire product fits inside the thumbnail, always.
The plugin pads to a uniform canvas instead of guessing where to crop.
* **Real `` markup** — multi-source with AVIF + WebP + JPEG fallback. **
Survives any page cache** (LiteSpeed, WP Rocket, Cloudflare APO, W3 Total Cache)
because it does not use `Vary: Accept`. The browser picks the optimal format;
the cache serves HTML without negotiation.
* **4-tier quality preset** — Maximum / High / Standard / Economy with per-format
values calibrated (e.g. Standard = AVIF Q60, WebP Q82, JPEG Q85 — visually indistinguishable
from the original at half the size).
* **HPOS-ready from day one** — declares `custom_order_tables` and `cart_checkout_blocks`
compatibility without any setup.
* **Cloudflare Image Transformations (CIT)** — optional integration to serve via
Cloudflare edge (`/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto`) with automatic availability detection
on your zone. If CIT is not enabled on your CF plan, the plugin keeps serving
local derivatives without breaking anything.
#### Free (no license required)
* **Bulk regenerate with Action Scheduler** — async processing resumable after
worker death, error classification (`oom`, `missing_original`, `engine_failed`,`
fs_permission`), scope filters (`auto` = products only based on Settings; `all-
used` = every image referenced in posts/products/Bricks templates/terms).
* **Embedded sample test** — processes 1-5 images on demand and shows the before/
after grid with bytes and % savings. Available on the **Settings** page (“Quick
preview”) and on **Bulk regenerate** (“Generate sample”).
* **Health page with CDN detection** — engine diagnostics, encoders, filesystem
permissions, detected competing plugins (Smush/EWWW/ShortPixel/Imagify), Cloudflare
Polish status (alerts if active — incompatible with the plugin's AVIF/WebP),
Image Prioritizer (Performance Lab) status with automatic detection.
* **Image SEO on every upload** — new product images get alt text, title and caption
built from the product title, category and brand (caption off by default — WordPress
fills it from the photo's IPTC data, and that text is usually the photographer's).
Deterministic, no AI, no API calls. Existing images can be filled one at a time
from the Media Library; filling the whole library in one pass is Pro.
* **Extreme-padding detection** — the Dashboard flags product images that get squared
with a lot of empty canvas (panoramic or very tall photos) and a gentle, dismissible
notice points you to how each aspect is handled. Detection is free; the per-aspect
fix is a Pro upgrade.
* **WP-CLI — 9 commands** — 7 free: `wp acimg health`, `stats`, `regenerate`, `
derivatives `, `purge-cache` (orphans; `--stale`/`--all` require Pro), `restore-
originals`, `migrate-from-sir`. 2 Pro: `wp acimg doctor` (extended diagnostics)
and `wp acimg reset` (full state reset).
#### Pro (license required)
* **Cloudflare Image Transformations (CIT) delivery** — emits `` with CIT
URLs (`/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto`) instead of local derivatives when CIT is
enabled on your zone. Defensive automatic fallback to the normal path if CIT
is unavailable.
* **Media Library audit + cleanup** — orphan image detector that understands **
Bricks Builder** (PHP serialize), `wp_termmeta`, WooCommerce shortcodes, custom
meta. Trash mode with typed confirmation, immutable audit log, and an `untrash`
endpoint for rollback.
* **Image Health Monitor** — weekly cron that scans for missing derivatives, stale
derivatives, Cloudflare Polish conflicts, and storage usage. Email digest to
the admin only when there are actionable findings.
* **Image SEO bulk backfill** — fill the alt text, title and caption your library
is missing in one pass, with a dry-run preview before anything is written. It
only writes where the field is empty and never touches text you wrote yourself.(
This is the _fix at scale_ for the backlog the free Dashboard counts.)
* **AI Alt Text BYOK** — alt text generation per attachment via OpenAI Vision (`
gpt-4o-mini`) or Anthropic Vision (`claude-haiku-4-5`). Bring Your Own Key (no
Merchant of Record over AI costs). Context enrichment with WooCommerce product
title + category + brand. Complements Image SEO rather than replacing it: use
it on the photos where the product name doesn't describe the picture.
* **Catalog Watch + Auto-Heal** — daily cron that detects ghost derivatives (DB
rows without files), orphan files (files without DB rows), products with broken
thumbnails. Auto-heal with dry-run preview + strict path validation. Persistent
admin notice when there are actionable issues.
* **Multi-Site Manager** (Agency) — centralized dashboard to monitor up to 25 client
sites from a single wp-admin. BYO Application Password, aggregated metrics (derivatives
+ bytes + issues), automatic hourly sync + ad-hoc. No external services: direct
wp-admin wp-admin communication via native REST.
* **CIT Cost Analyzer** — daily pull from Cloudflare GraphQL Analytics API. MTD
cost + monthly projection + peak day to identify spikes. BYO API token (CF authenticates
directly).
* **Per-aspect-ratio override** — within a single WordPress size, process each
aspect ratio (1:1, 4:3, 16:9, vertical, horizontal) differently: uniform with
canvas, proportional without cropping, or skip. Keep square photos proportional
while the rest follow the base mode. Wired into upload + bulk regeneration +
derivative invalidation. (This is the _fix_ for the extreme-padding the free
Dashboard flags below.)
#### Integration with other plugins
* **Image Prioritizer / Performance Lab** — Australcode Uniform Images detects `
fetchpriority="high"` and propagates correct loading/decoding to the final `<
picture>`. Native LCP optimization.
* **Bricks Builder** — supports `wp_get_attachment_image` and optional output buffer
rewriter for themes/page builders that bypass that filter.
* **WP Rocket / a3 Lazy Load** — compatible with `data-src`/`data-sizes` lazy loaders(
reads both if present).
#### v1.0 non-goals
* **Smart crop** — would break the “no cropping” promise. If you need that, this
plugin is not for you.
* **SaaS-only / phone home** — the plugin is 100% local. All optimization happens
on your own server.
* **JPEG XL** — format still immature in browsers. We will reevaluate in 2027.
#### Why this approach
* **Padded canvas, never cropped** — every thumbnail pads the product onto a uniform
canvas, so the full product is always visible. No subject-guessing, no accidental
crops.
* **`` element, cache-safe by design** — AVIF + WebP + JPEG fallback served
without `Vary: Accept`, so it survives any HTTP page cache (LiteSpeed, WP Rocket,
Cloudflare APO, W3 Total Cache). The browser picks the format; the cache serves
one HTML.
* **AVIF + WebP + JPEG, all free** — modern formats are part of the free core,
not a paid add-on.
* **Unlimited bulk on Free** — regenerate your whole catalog with no image cap
and no monthly credit quota.
* **100% local** — all processing happens on your own server. No SaaS, no phone-
home, your images never leave the site.
* **Built for WooCommerce grids** — reads `wp_get_registered_image_subsizes()`
and respects the WC thumbnail-cropping setting, so it targets exactly the product
sizes your theme uses.
Australcode Uniform Images does one job: uniform product thumbnails for WooCommerce
grids, served cache-safe. It only touches images on registered WooCommerce sizes,
so it coexists with any general image optimizer you already run.

### External services
This plugin connects to external services **only when you explicitly enable or
use the corresponding optional feature
. The free, core functionality (uniform
images, AVIF/WebP/JPEG ``, bulk regenerate, health) runs 100% on your own
server and contacts no external service.
#### Freemius (account, licensing & secure checkout)
Australcode uses Freemius as its billing and licensing platform (Freemius is the
Merchant of Record for Pro purchases). Connecting to Freemius is **optional**: on
activation you can click **“Skip”** and the plugin stays fully functional without
ever contacting Freemius.
* If you **opt in** (free or Pro), the plugin sends your **admin email**, **site
URL
and basic environment data (WordPress, PHP and plugin versions) to the
Freemius API (host `api.freemius.com`, path `/v1/`) to create your account and
check for updates.
* If you **activate a Pro license**, the plugin sends your **license key** and
**
site domain** to Freemius to validate the license and enforce the per-plan site
limit. The license is re-validated periodically.
* Purchases and license management happen on Freemius-hosted pages
(hosts `freemius.
com`, `users.freemius.com`).
* The **“Support Forum”** menu entry is a plain link to this plugin's forum on
WordPress.org (`wordpress.org/support/plugin/australcode-uniform-images`). It
opens in a new tab and sends nothing to us or to Freemius.
* The **“Contact Us”** menu entry opens Freemius’ contact form. In the free build
it is an external link, and opening it sends — **in the URL itself, at click
time, before you type anything — your site URL, your login URL, the plugin ID,
public key and version, and, if you opted in, your Freemius install identifier.
Whatever you then write in the form (your name, email address and message) is
sent when you submit it. Nothing is sent if you never open it.
Apart from opening “Contact Us”, no data is sent to Freemius if you skip the
opt-
in and do not enter a license key.
* Terms of Service: https://freemius.com/terms/
* Privacy Policy: https://freemius.com/privacy/
#### OpenAI / Anthropic (AI Alt Text — Pro, Bring Your Own Key)
If you enable **AI Alt Text** and provide your own API key, the plugin sends the
**
image** (as a base64 data URI) plus the related **WooCommerce product context** (
title, category, brand) to the provider you choose, to generate alt text:
* OpenAI Vision (`gpt-4o-mini`) — host `api.openai.com`, path `/v1/chat/completions`
- Terms: https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use
- Privacy: https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy
* Anthropic Vision (`claude-haiku-4-5`) — host `api.anthropic.com`, path `/v1/messages`
- Terms: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/consumer-terms
- Privacy: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy
This runs only when you trigger alt text generation and only with the key you
supply.
The plugin is not a Merchant of Record for these AI costs (BYOK).
#### Cloudflare (Image Transformations + Cost Analyzer — Pro)
If you enable **Cloudflare Image Transformations (CIT)**, image URLs of your own
site are served through Cloudflare's edge (`/cdn-cgi/image/...`) so Cloudflare can
transform them on-demand. If you enable the **CIT Cost Analyzer**, the plugin queries
the Cloudflare GraphQL Analytics API (host `api.cloudflare.com`, path `/client/v4/
graphql`) with the API token **you provide** and your zone identifier, to report
usage and cost. The plugin also performs a HEAD request to one of **your own** derivative
URLs to detect whether CIT and Cloudflare Polish are active on your zone (no third-
party data is sent in that detection).

## Instalacija
#### Requirements
* **WooCommerce** — required. This plugin works on WooCommerce product images,
so WordPress will not let you activate it unless WooCommerce is installed and
active.
* WordPress 6.5+ · PHP 8.2+
* **Imagick** (preferred, with `libheif` for AVIF) or **GD** as fallback.
#### Via WordPress Admin (recommended)
1. Go to **Plugins Add new** in your WP admin, search for “Australcode Uniform Images”
and click Install + Activate.
2. Navigate to the new top-level menu **Australcode Uniform Images Settings** and
choose your quality preset (default Standard works well for most cases).
3. Go to **Australcode Uniform Images Bulk regenerate**, run a Sample Test with one
product to validate visually, then click “Start bulk” to process the full catalog.
Full setup guide, the free-vs-Pro comparison and the Pro license: https://uniform-
images.australcode.io
#### Via WP-CLI
```
`
```
wp plugin install australcode-uniform-images –activate wp acimg health # verify
everything is OK wp acimg regenerate # bulk dry-run wp acimg regenerate –start –
yes # starts bulk in the background wp acimg purge-cache –orphans –yes # clean up
derivatives whose image is gone `
Pro adds two more commands — `wp acimg doctor` (extended diagnostics) and `wp acimg
reset` (wipes every persisted artifact: the 6 custom tables, options, post meta,
transients and derivative directories, without deactivating the plugin). They ship
only in the Pro build, so in the free version they are not registered at all. Pro
also unlocks the `--stale` and `--all` scopes of `purge-cache`; the free version
runs `--orphans`. The destructive ones default to an interactive confirm; pass `--
yes` to skip it.
## ČPP
### Does Image SEO rename my image files?
No. Image SEO writes the alt text, title and caption attributes — it does not touch
filenames. Renaming a file after upload means rewriting every URL that already points
at it, and getting that wrong breaks live product pages. If file renaming is what
you're after, this is not the plugin for it.
### What's the difference between Image SEO and the AI alt text feature?
Image SEO reads your WooCommerce product data — title, category, brand — and builds
the alt text from a template. It's instant, free, deterministic, and runs on every
upload. AI alt text (Pro) looks at the image itself and describes what it sees,
using your own OpenAI or Anthropic key at a fraction of a cent per image.
Most stores run Image SEO on everything and AI only on the images where the product
name doesn't describe the picture — a lifestyle shot, a detail close-up, a size
comparison. They write the same field, so neither runs automatically on top of the
other, and neither overwrites alt text you wrote yourself.
### Will it overwrite the alt text I already wrote?
No. The automatic path only writes where the field is empty. The plugin also records
what it generated, so if you edit an alt text by hand afterwards it's locked — no
automatic pass will touch it again. The only way anything gets overwritten is if
you click the button on that specific image yourself, or explicitly pick the “replace
existing” option on a bulk run.
### Why is the alt text empty on some images?
Because they aren't attached to a product. Image SEO builds the text from the product
title, category and brand — a logo, a banner or a blog image has no product to read
from, so the plugin writes nothing rather than inventing something. The Dashboard
counter reflects this: it reports how many images it can actually fill, not how
many are missing alt text.
### Do I need WooCommerce?
Yes. Australcode Uniform Images makes **WooCommerce product images** uniform, so
WooCommerce is a hard requirement: the plugin declares `Requires Plugins: woocommerce`
and WordPress blocks activation if WooCommerce is not installed and active. It is
not a general-purpose image optimizer.
### Is it compatible with WooCommerce HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage)?
Yes. Compatibility with `custom_order_tables` and `cart_checkout_blocks` is declared
from day one via `before_woocommerce_init`. No manual configuration required.
### Does it work with Cloudflare?
Yes, and well. The plugin emits `` with `` per MIME type — **it
survives Cloudflare APO** and any page cache perfectly because it does NOT use `
Vary: Accept` (which would break caching).
If you have **Cloudflare Pro+**, you can enable **Image Transformations** from Settings
CDN edge. The plugin automatically detects whether CIT is available on your zone
and emits `/cdn-cgi/image/` URLs that CF transforms on-demand with `format=auto`.
**Caution with Cloudflare Polish**: if active, it re-compresses the AVIF/WebP that
the plugin already optimized — double compression equals visual artifacts. The plugin
detects this on the Health page and alerts you with an admin notice. Recommendation:
disable Polish, keep APO.
### Which image engine does it use?
**Imagick** (preferred) with `libheif` for AVIF. **GD** as fallback. **libvips**
is wired in the code but requires bundled binaries (not included in v0.x — future
sprint). The active engine and its capabilities (read/write per format) appear on**
Health Image engines**.
### Do I need anything special for AVIF?
Imagick compiled with `libheif` (common on modern hosts: Kinsta, WP Engine, SiteGround,
recent Cloudways). If Imagick does not support AVIF, the plugin still emits WebP
+ JPEG and the Health page reports the limitation. **You do not get stuck without
anything** — you just lose the most efficient format.
### How much storage does it use?
Estimate: ~700 KB of derivatives on average per original image at Standard preset(
varies a lot by content type — product photos with a uniform background compress
better). For a catalog of 1,000 products with one image each, that's ~700 MB of
derivatives. By default the plugin **never modifies your originals** — derivatives
are separate files, so you need space for original + derivatives. The only exception
is the optional “apply trim to original” setting (off by default), which backs up
the pristine file first and is reversible with `wp acimg restore-originals`.
### How do I regenerate after changing settings?
Change settings on **Australcode Uniform Images Settings**, save (the plugin shows
a modal warning you that existing derivatives are invalidated), and then go to **
Bulk regenerate** or run `wp acimg regenerate --start --yes`. The plugin keeps serving
the old derivatives until regeneration completes — **zero visual downtime**.
### Conflicts with Smush / EWWW / ShortPixel / Imagify?
Yes, **disable those plugins** before installing Australcode Uniform Images. The
Health Doctor page detects them and alerts you. The typical conflict is that those
plugins also hook into `wp_get_attachment_image` and rewrite the HTML — the output
ends up inconsistent.
### Does it have WP-CLI?
Yes, 9 commands under `wp acimg `. Seven ship in the free version: health(
CI smoke test), stats, regenerate, derivatives , purge-cache, restore-originals,
and migrate-from-sir. Two more ship only with Pro: doctor (extended diagnostics)
and reset (resets all persisted state without deactivating). Each command supports`--
format=json`, and `wp help acimg` lists the commands available in your build.
### How do I report a bug or request a feature?
Open a support thread in the WordPress.org plugin support forum — the plugin menu
links straight to it. For Pro license-related issues, use the “Contact Us” screen
in the plugin menu, or email info@australcode.io.

## Zapis promijena
#### 0.45.0
* **The paid features now leave the menu when a license expires.** Clean library,
Catalog Watch, Multi-Site Manager and CIT Cost stayed in the sidebar after a
license lapsed, and each one opened onto a screen that only offered to sell you
the plugin again. They are now hidden while the license is inactive and come
straight back when it is renewed. The pages themselves still answer if you have
one bookmarked, so no link you saved breaks.
* **An expired license is asked to renew, not to buy.** The license screen could
not tell “never paid” apart from “paid and expired”, so a customer whose subscription
had lapsed was shown the same pitch as a brand-new visitor — offering to sell
what they already own. It now recognizes the expired state and points at renewal.
* **The license screen lists everything the paid plans include.** It listed 8 of
the 11 paid capabilities, quietly leaving out the weekly Image Health Monitor,
the Pro WP-CLI commands and priority email support. All eleven are listed now.
* **The Pro WP-CLI commands are no longer part of the free download.** `wp acimg
doctor` and `wp acimg reset` used to ship inside the free version and refuse
to run without a license. They now ship only in the Pro build, so on the free
version they are simply not registered — `wp acimg doctor` reports an unknown
command instead of a license error. The advanced `purge-cache` scopes (`--stale`/`--
all`) still appear in the free command's help and point you to Pro when used;
only `--orphans` runs there, as before. Nothing changes for Pro users, and every
free command (`health`, `stats`, `regenerate`, `derivatives`, `purge-cache --
orphans`, `restore-originals`, `migrate-from-sir`) works exactly as before.
* **WooCommerce is now stated as a requirement everywhere.** The plugin has always
required WooCommerce — WordPress blocks activation without it — but the readme
and the website never said so. They do now.
#### 0.44.2
* **Fix: the Clean library audit could report more images in use than you have.**
The counter behind “In use” was built from every reference the plugin finds,
including numbers that are not images at all — a stored timestamp could be counted
as an image in use. On a library of 8 images it reported 10 in use, which is
impossible and made the whole panel hard to trust. The count is now restricted
to your actual images, so “in use” plus “orphaned” always adds up to your total.
This only affected the number shown: the list of orphaned images was always correct,
and nothing was ever deleted because of it.
#### 0.44.1
* **Fix: product images could still render stretched — this is the root cause.**
Earlier releases fixed two contributing causes; this one fixes the origin. The`
` the plugin serves was not declaring its width and height, so the browser
had no shape to reserve and themes that impose no aspect ratio of their own drew
the image at whatever height the slot allowed — a square product image could
render as a tall strip. Themes that set their own aspect ratio were masking it,
which is why it only showed on some sites. The image now declares the dimensions
of the file it actually serves. Safe in-place upgrade — no regeneration, no settings
change.
* **Fix: the fallback image could point at the wrong shape.** Its `srcset` still
listed WordPress’ original crops instead of the uniform ones the plugin generates,
so a browser could pick a file whose proportions contradicted the image it belonged
to.
* **Fix: deleting a product image now cleans up after itself.** Nothing was listening
for deletions, so the generated files and their database rows stayed behind forever—
the cleanup tool existed, but nothing ever triggered it. Shared files are ref-
counted and preserved: a file used by another size is never removed.
* **Fix: an image that fails to process no longer fails silently.** Until now a
corrupt or unreadable image produced no derivatives and no trace anywhere — not
in the Errors page, not in the health log. You saw an image that never got uniformed
with no way to find out why. These failures are now recorded with a reason, and
show up in the Errors page labelled “On upload”.
* **Fix (accessibility): the setup dialog is usable with a keyboard.** It had no
dialog semantics, did not move focus, could not be closed with Escape, and let
Tab move focus onto controls hidden behind the overlay. It now announces itself
as a dialog, traps focus, closes with Escape and returns focus where it was.
#### 0.44.0
* **Fix: product images no longer break your theme's layout.** This closes the
second — and last — cause of the oversized images that 0.43.0 started fixing.
The `` wrapper the plugin adds was invisible to your theme's CSS, so
the height your theme sets on an image was measured against the wrapper instead
of the card it sits in. The wrapper now behaves like the image it replaces.
* **New: the wrapper carries a class (`acimg-picture`)**, so your theme can style
it directly. If your theme already worked around this, your own styling still
wins over the plugin's.
* Admin polish: on narrow screens the dashboard cards no longer force sideways
scrolling, and the Clean library steps wrap instead of running off the edge.
#### 0.43.0
* **Fix (accessibility): images no longer lose `alt=""`, `aria-hidden` or `role`
when served as ``.** The rewrite kept only a fixed list of attributes
and dropped empty values, so a decorative image marked `alt=""` reached the browser
without it — screen readers announced the filename instead of skipping the image.
Every attribute your theme sets is now passed through untouched.
* **Fix: images could render stretched inside sliders and carousels on WordPress
6.7+.** A square 768px photo was being drawn as 500×1500 on a live store. WordPress
6.7 adds an `auto` token to the `sizes` of lazy images that is meant for the `
` tag only; the plugin was copying it into the `` elements of the`
`, where it made the browser resolve the wrong shape. The `` keeps
the token, the `` copies no longer do — no settings change and no regeneration
needed.
* **Fix (licensing): the Pro screens no longer light up before the Pro build is
installed.** Right after buying, the license is valid but the site is still running
the free build — the plugin now waits until the Pro code is actually installed,
instead of showing Pro screens backed by nothing.
* **Improved: the licensing screen speaks to the person reading it.** If you already
own Pro, the menu entry reads “License” instead of “Upgrade” and the page confirms
what you have running, rather than pitching what you already paid for.
* **Improved: support is one click away.** The plugin menu now links straight to
this plugin's support forum on WordPress.org, instead of leaving you to find
it.
* Admin polish: the license box no longer squashes on narrow screens, long tab
bars scroll instead of overflowing, and keyboard focus is visible again on every
control.
#### 0.42.0
* **New: Image SEO (free).** Alt text, title and caption built from your WooCommerce
product data — title, category and brand — instead of from the filename. Runs
on every new upload, deterministic, no AI and no API calls. Off by default: nothing
is written until you turn it on.
* **New: “Missing alt text” on the Dashboard (free).** Counts how many product
images Image SEO can actually fill, and says plainly how many aren't attached
to a product — because those have nothing to read from and no upgrade fixes that.
* **New: Image SEO bulk backfill (Pro).** Fills the alt text your library is missing
in one pass, with a dry-run preview of real rows before anything is written.
* **Fix (data): AI alt text no longer overwrites alt text you wrote yourself.**
The bulk action applied the generated text unconditionally, replacing hand-written
alt text. It now skips those images unless you explicitly pick the new “replace
existing alt text” action — and it skips them _before_ calling the provider,
so no tokens are spent on a result that gets discarded.
* **Improved: AI alt text now gets product context on gallery and variation images.**
It previously only recognized featured images; the rest reached the model with
no context at all.
* The media modal now has a single “Image SEO” field with both buttons (“Fill from
product data” and, with a key configured, “Generate with AI”) instead of two
separate rows writing the same field.
#### 0.41.0
* **New: full-bleed photo detection (free).** The plugin now recognizes photos
that already fill the frame — lifestyle shots, banners — as opposed to product
cutouts on a plain background. The Dashboard and Health page flag how many are
being shrunk and framed in white, with an honest “N of M analyzed” count.
* **New: “Keep full-bleed photos” setting (opt-in).** Turn it on and those photos
are served edge to edge instead of scaled down to the content size; real cutouts
are still scaled as before. Off by default — your existing derivatives are untouched
until you enable it.
* **New: the “Content size (%)” is now editable in Settings.** It controls how
much of the canvas the subject fills in Uniform sizes (85% leaves a margin, 100%
fills edge to edge). It was previously fixed and only reachable via WP-CLI.
* **Fix (data): saving Settings no longer resets the content size.** Sites that
had customized it — for example after migrating from Perfect Image Resize, where
it defaulted to 100% — silently lost the value on every save and needlessly regenerated
their whole catalog. Fixed.
* **Fix: with “Apply trim to the original” enabled, full-bleed photos are no longer
re-encoded.** When the trim finds nothing to crop, the original is now left byte-
for-byte untouched instead of being re-saved at a lower quality with no benefit.
* Internal: static-analysis cleanups. No breaking changes — safe in-place upgrade.
#### 0.40.1
* Maintenance: removed the “More by Australcode” cross-promotion section from the
Upgrade screen.
#### 0.40.0
* **New: “Heavily padded” detection (free).** The Dashboard now flags product photos
that get squared with a lot of empty canvas — panoramic or very tall images —
and a gentle, dismissible notice points you to how each aspect ratio is handled.
Detection is free; the per-aspect fix is a Pro upgrade.
* **Admin theme now fully matches the Australcode family.** Every page header shows
the product app-icon and the sidebar menu icon recolors like a native WordPress
icon (de-forked onto the shared Admin Kit) — consistent chrome across every Australcode
plugin.
* **Polish:** the Upgrade page header gained the product icon + a one-line intro,
the Catalog Watch and Multi-Site tables now scroll cleanly on mobile instead
of squashing, smoother transitions throughout, and the Freemius account screen
picks up the green accent.
* No data or settings changes — safe in-place upgrade.
#### 0.39.1
* **New “Upgrade” page** replaces the separate “Family” submenu — it bundles the
Pro feature pitch and the “More by Australcode” cross-sell into a single, less
intrusive growth surface (the family catalog still lives there, ad-free).
* **Refined menu icon** — the sidebar now shows the product glyph (the 2×2 uniform-
grid mark), matching the plugin icon for a consistent identity.
* **Completed Spanish translations** for the Pro weekly health digest email, the
health severity labels, and the Cloudflare cost analyzer placeholders.
* **Housekeeping:** SPDX license identifier in the headers, refreshed static-analysis
tooling (PHPStan 2.x), and documentation tidy-up. No behavior changes for the
free version.
#### 0.39.0
* **New look: the Australcode admin theme.** Every plugin page now ships the Australcode
Admin Kit — same typography, spacing and the new green accent across the whole
plugin family. No settings change; purely visual.
* **English-first interface.** The admin UI source language is now English, with
complete Spanish translations bundled (`es_ES` and `es_CL`, 100% coverage). WordPress
picks your site language automatically.
* **New “Family” page** — discover the other Australcode plugins, see which ones
you already run, and install the free ones in one click. No ads, no admin notices—
it lives quietly as the last submenu.
* **Fixed:** PHP notices when the premium and free builds are swapped in place (
constant guards).
* **Fixed:** the WooCommerce cropping how-to path in Settings was untranslatable.
#### 0.38.0
* **Licensing and checkout moved to Freemius.** Pro licensing, purchases and the
in-plugin account now run through Freemius — our new billing platform and Merchant
of Record — replacing the previous provider. Image processing, bulk regeneration
and delivery are unchanged; this release only swaps the billing/licensing layer.
* **Privacy-first, optional opt-in.** The connection screen is fully WordPress.
org-compliant: clicking “Skip” keeps every free feature working and sends no
data to any external service.
* **The free version stays 100% functional** with no account required.
* **Updated the “External services” disclosure** in this readme to reflect the
move from Lemon Squeezy to Freemius.
#### 0.37.0
* **`wp acimg migrate-from-sir` is now free** — import your Smart Image Resize
settings (background color, trim, sizes) into Australcode with one command. Makes
switching effortless.
* **New output-format controls (free)** — force JPEG-only or PNG-only output per
your needs, plus an optional delivery filesystem check on the Health page. Off
by default; existing sites unaffected.
* **Catalog Watch repair now runs in the background** — on large catalogs the repair(
and its preview) no longer time out behind Cloudflare. Progress is shown and
you can close the page; the job continues. (Pro)
* **Cleanup, Multi-Site and CIT Cost pages redesigned** — Cleanup is now a 3-step
wizard (Audit Review Move), Multi-Site has a guided empty state, and CIT Cost
leads with a budget KPI + projection.
* **Fixed** — Settings page polish: the AI Alt Text and aspect-ratio override sections
now align with the settings column, and their “Pro” badges correctly disappear
once a Pro license is active.
#### 0.36.1
* Page-builder coverage extended to Beaver Builder (`_fl_builder_data`) and Oxygen(`
ct_builder_shortcodes`). The detection now combines two strategies per builder:
structured ID extraction (precise for Bricks/Elementor) and a universal URL scan
of the builder's stored markup (covers Beaver, Oxygen, and any builder that embeds
the image URL). Divi/WPBakery remain covered via `post_content`.
#### 0.36.0
* Page-builder coverage: Bulk Regenerate (“All used images” scope) now detects
images placed directly in Bricks and Elementor templates — they live in the builder's
own storage (`_bricks_page_content`, `_elementor_data`), outside `post_content`,
so previous versions never found or optimized them. Divi was already covered (
it stores in `post_content`). The frontend delivery already handled any `` from any builder; this closes the generation side.
* Bulk runs now process exactly what the chosen scope selected: the “All used images”
scope optimizes every used image (products and non-products alike), instead of
silently skipping images whose post type isn't in the processing filter. The
per-type filter still governs automatic processing on upload.
#### 0.35.0
* New (opt-in): auto-detect transparency. When enabled, images whose original has
significant transparency (logos, cut-out products with shadows) keep their alpha
channel — the plugin uses a transparent canvas and a PNG raster fallback instead
of flattening onto the canvas color. WebP and AVIF already preserve transparency.
Off by default, so existing sites are unaffected until you turn it on (which
regenerates derivatives). Set it in Settings Formats & quality Transparency.
#### 0.34.1
* Internationalization: the admin JavaScript layer is now fully translatable. All
dynamic UI text in Bulk Regenerate and Clean Library (counters, confirmations,
progress, summaries, error messages) — plus the previously localized Catalog
Watch, Multi-Site, CIT Cost Analyzer and settings preview — now routes through
WordPress translations instead of hardcoded strings.
* The English (en_US) translation bundle is now 100% complete.
* No behavior changes: every string keeps its original fallback until the site's
active language provides a translation.
#### 0.34.0
* Pro: new per-aspect-ratio mode overrides. For each main WooCommerce size you
can choose how each aspect ratio is processed (square 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, portrait,
etc.): uniform with canvas, proportional without cropping, or skip. For example,
keep square images on “proportional” while the rest of the size follows its base
mode. Available on all paid plans.
* The per-aspect override is wired into the generation pipeline (upload and bulk
regeneration) and into derivative invalidation, so changing it regenerates only
what is needed.
* Visibility: the Dashboard now shows how many images were skipped by the context
filter (not attached to a processable post type), with a shortcut to adjust the
filter. Avoids the “I uploaded an image and nothing happened” confusion.
#### 0.33.2
* Security: REST endpoints that operate on attachments now verify the edit/delete
capability per attachment (current_user_can edit_post/delete_post), in addition
to the general manage_woocommerce gate.
#### 0.33.1
WP.org re-submission compliance + listing polish. No user-facing behavior changes—
safe in-place upgrade.
* **External services URLs no longer pingable as 404** — the readme's “External
services” section referenced API endpoints (`api.lemonsqueezy.com`, `api.openai.
com`, `api.anthropic.com`, `api.cloudflare.com`) as full URLs. WP.org's review
scanner pings every URL in the readme and flagged the Lemon Squeezy endpoint
as a broken Terms/Privacy URL. Endpoints are now declared as host + path (not
full clickable URLs); Terms/Privacy links remain and resolve.
* **Explicit output-buffer close** — `OutputBufferHook` (opt-in feature, off by
default) now closes its `ob_start()` buffer explicitly on `shutdown`, guarded
by `ob_get_level()`. Same rewritten output, paired open/close as WP.org guidelines
expect. WP 6.5+ compatible.
* **Banners + branding** — re-generated WP.org banners with the current name (Australcode
Uniform Images) and version; renamed the last legacy global variable in the bootstrap
file.
* **Listing polish** — sharper short description and tags for the target niche,
added Upgrade Notice, fixed screenshot #8 caption, aligned WP-CLI command count
between Description and FAQ.
Internal: 296/296 unit tests passing.
