Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records BUDI WebP Optimizer version 1.0.6 as active, updated 14h ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
BUDI WebP Optimizer is a lightweight, high-performance image optimization plugin developed by BUDI Studio for WordPress agencies, WooCommerce store owners, and web developers.
Convert your existing JPEG and PNG media library to modern, lightweight WebP formats with zero bloat and absolute safety for your existing layouts, attachment IDs, and WooCommerce galleries.
Why BUDI WebP Optimizer?
100% Lightweight: Built exclusively on native WordPress APIs ( wp_get_image_editor() ) and standard server WebP encoders (GD / Imagick). Zero heavy third-party vendor bloat or external API dependencies.
Modern Dashboard: Complete control over your library with live conversion stats, animated donut gauge, storage savings calculator, and quick actions.
Two Safe Conversion Modes:
Keep Original & Create WebP: Keeps your original file untouched and creates adjacent WebP files for seamless delivery.
Replace Original with WebP: Safely switches the attachment image format to WebP, preserving Attachment IDs, updating thumbnails, and maintaining full WooCommerce and Elementor compatibility.
Recoverable Backups & 1-Click Rollback: Optional automatic backup of original image files before replacement into a protected directory with instant 1-click restore functionality.
Delete Backup to Reclaim Disk Space: Users can permanently delete stored backup files per image or in bulk to free up server disk space.
Dedicated Management Hubs: Dedicated views for Master Dashboard, Media Library Optimizer, Bulk Conversion Center, Backup Management, and Diagnostic Reports.
Bulk & Selective Conversion: Convert your entire media library in controlled background AJAX batches or select specific images on demand.
Fine Quality Control: Tune WebP compression quality from 50% to 100% (presets: 75% smaller file, 85% balanced, 96% highest quality).
Before / After Preview: Compare original image and converted WebP side-by-side with file size reduction metrics.
Zero Frontend Bloat: No frontend CSS or JavaScript is enqueued on visitor page loads. Pure website performance.
