WordPress Image Optimizer Plugin – Second Iteration Update

Progress update time! Second iteration complete. I got through their feedback requests. Fingers crossed, we’ll be on the directory by next week.

WordPress Review Feedback

Last week, WordPress sent me their review feedback for the second iteration of my plugin. The good news? Most of the requested changes were straightforward technical adjustments focused on function naming consistency.

The main requirement was standardizing all function prefixes throughout the codebase. WordPress has strict guidelines about prefix formatting and length – and for good reason. With decades of plugin development and thousands of plugins in their repository, they need to prevent function name conflicts that could break sites.

Current Status

I completed all the requested changes and resubmitted the plugin last Friday. Based on their previous response time (they got back to me by Wednesday last week), I’m expecting to hear back by next Wednesday. Fingers crossed!

What the Plugin Does

While we wait for final approval, the plugin is fully functional and ready for testing. Here’s what it does:

Image Optimization Made Simple

  • Automatically converts JPEG images to modern WebP and AVIF formats
  • Delivers significant file size reduction – often 50% or more compared to traditional PNG/JPEG files
  • Faster loading times for your website visitors
  • Seamless integration with your WordPress media library

Want to Test It?

The plugin has passed all checks on my end and is working perfectly. If you’d like to try it out and provide feedback, you can access it via the link below. Your testing and input would be incredibly valuable as we approach the final release!
