Resizing & Optimizing Photos Uploaded by MediaPress

Brajesh Singh in Comments Off on Resizing & Optimizing Photos Uploaded by MediaPress

Since Our initial release of MediaPress Beta, We got a lot of questions on how to optimize images after upload and minimize the disk space. Today, I wanted to show you how easy it was to bridge MediaPress with other existing plugins for the task.

Two of the plugins that we were asked for compatibility with are:-

It is very easy to use these two or any other plugin with MediaPress.

Using MediaPress with Resize Image After Upload plugin:-

To enable support for Resize Image After Upload plugin, you can add this line to your bp-custom.php

add_action( 'init', 'mpp_custom_bridge_resize_after_upload' );

function mpp_custom_bridge_resize_after_upload() { 
	
	if( function_exists( 'jr_uploadresize_resize' ) )
		add_action( 'mpp_handle_upload', 'jr_uploadresize_resize' );
	//that's all, have fun
	
	

}

add_action( 'init', 'mpp_custom_bridge_resize_after_upload' );

function mpp_custom_bridge_resize_after_upload() {

if( function_exists( 'jr_uploadresize_resize' ) )

add_action( 'mpp_handle_upload', 'jr_uploadresize_resize' );

//that's all, have fun

}

That's all. I have made sure that it does not cause a fatal error if the Resize Image after upload plugin is deactivated. Now, The Resize Image after upload plugin will resize/optimize any image uploaded with MediaPress after this change.

Using MediaPress With EWWW Image Optimizer Plugin:-

It seems that this plugin does not need any change but in case it is not working for MediaPress, You can put these two lines in your bp-custom.php

//ask ewww optimizer to optimize MediaPress Images
add_action( 'init', 'mpp_ewww_optimizer_bridge' );
function mpp_ewww_optimizer_bridge() {
	
	if( function_exists( 'ewww_image_optimizer_handle_upload' ) ) {
		add_action( 'mpp_handle_upload', 'ewww_image_optimizer_handle_upload' );
		add_filter( 'mpp_generate_attachment_metadata', 'ewww_image_optimizer_resize_from_meta_data', 15, 2 );
	}
}

//ask ewww optimizer to optimize MediaPress Images

add_action( 'init', 'mpp_ewww_optimizer_bridge' );

function mpp_ewww_optimizer_bridge() {

if( function_exists( 'ewww_image_optimizer_handle_upload' ) ) {

add_action( 'mpp_handle_upload', 'ewww_image_optimizer_handle_upload' );

add_filter( 'mpp_generate_attachment_metadata', 'ewww_image_optimizer_resize_from_meta_data', 15, 2 );

}

More tips for MediaPress, coming soon 🙂 Looking forward to your comments and suggestions.
