Resizes uploaded images and creates multi-size images automatically

Easy Image Resizer for Joomla! automatically resizes the resolution of images uploaded through the Media Manager or any image upload processes by 3rd party extensions. This is often useful if images are not previously processed offline and uploaded in a too large resolution.

The automatic resizing also reduces the size of the images, which can lead to serious performance improvements to the loading time. The plugin is executed when uploading images in the media manager, the 'Image' button in the edit mode or image upload forms provided by 3rd party extensions.

Features

  • Resizes uploaded images in the Media component (+ any 3rd party extensions in the PRO version)
  • Optimises all existing images reversibly by creating backup images (PRO version only)
  • Improves the loading time by reducing the image file size
  • Images are optimized automatically in the uploading process
  • Support for the WebP format - conversation of all existing images with one click (PRO version only)
  • Uses core class "Image" for image manipulation
  • Scale methods: SCALE INSIDE, SCALE OUTSIDE, SCALE FIT, SCALE FILL, CROP & CROP RESIZE
  • JPG quality and PNG compression level can be set
  • Creates unlimited multi-size images (aka thumbnails)
  • Multi-size image path can be set
  • Integration of Optimus.io for lossless image compression
  • Optimizes images from all image uploads losslessly
  • Language: German and English

  • + Optimisation of all existing images - With this feature, you may optimise all images for the Joomla! website with one click. The rules from the settings are applied to each image. Easy Image Resizer allows a reversible optimisation, a backup file of each image is created by default and used in further image processes. You can restore all images from the backup files with one click or by renaming the files manually!
  • + New action buttons: Optimise All Images, Find All Images, Find Backup Images, Restore Backup Images and Delete Backup Images
  • + Optimisation start path - Set the starting path that will be searched recursively for images. If you only want to optimise specific images, then you should specify the exact path to these images. The more specific you are, the faster the image optimisation process is executed!
  • + Create backup images - Original images are renamed to image.eirBck.[jpg/png/gif] and kept as a reference for further optimisation processes. This option enables a reversible optimisation. Strongly recommended!
  • ^ Updated Optimus.io integration
  • ^ Code optimisations

Version 3.4.0 - 2016-03-30

  • + All Image Uploads - With this option images from all upload processes from an HTML form are processed with the optimization algorithm by Optimus.io. This means that also image uploads from 3rd party extensions (e.g. JCE editor or image gallery extensions) are optimized automatically. Note: This option does not change the resolution of the image but it only optimizes the images losslessly!
  • ^ Safe Upload Names - Uses dashes instead of underscores to replace whitespaces

Version 3.3.0 - 2016-03-15

  • + Optimus.io integration - Service for lossless compression of images. This service is completely free for images (in JPEG and PNG formats) up to 100KB, it requires cURL on the server to make the requests. If you need professional features (images up to 5MB and HTTPS connection), then buy an Optimus HQ API key. Further information: Optimus.io
  • + Code Refactoring
  • ^ Updated Language Files

Version 3.2.2 - 2016-01-27

  • + Option: Enlarge Images - Should smaller images be enlarged to the dimension that was calculated by the selected scale method? Attention: This will lead to notable quality loss! If this option is deactivated, then multi-size images that would be larger after resizing, are not created and main images are not processed.
  • + Added JED link in the language files

Version 3.2.1 - 2016-01-19

  • + Safe Upload Names - With this option image names are converted to make them safe for the upload process. UTF8 characters are encoded to ASCII, special characters are removed, whitespaces are replaced with underscores and the resulting string is converted to lowercase.

  • + Rewrote plugin completely - EIR now uses the Joomla! core class JImage for image manipulation.
  • + JPG quality / PNG compression
  • + Built-in scale methods are used

  • Version 3-3 - 2014-12-04

    • + Multi Resizing Feature - With this feature you can enter all sizes that you need from an uploaded image. EIR automatically creates a folder with the name 'resized' in the upload folder and generates the resized images in it, it also adds the resolution to the image name of the resized images. You should enter at least the resolution (width and height) of the resized images, additionally you also can define the proportionality and quality values. In fact, one integer value is sufficient which will be used for the width. If you don't set the optional values for proportionality and quality, then the values from the single image resizing are used. The parameters are: width (integer), height (integer), proportionality (1 true, 0 false), quality (0-100). Enter one resolution each line, separate the parameters with a | (pipe symbol).
