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.

Overview

About this plugin

WP SmartCrop allows you to set the ‘focal point’ of any image, right from the media library, then crops your images to match your css rules (no more squished aspect ratios), keeping that focal point, not only in view, but as near as possible to a ‘rule of thirds’ position in the image. The results are powerful, composed photos at any screen size, with any constraints.

  • Visually select your images’ focal points with an intuitive click-based interface
  • Quickly enable or disable smart-cropping on a per-image basis.
  • Easily target only the images you want to style, with the img.wpsmartcrop-image selector
  • Automatic image preloader, so your users never see partially loaded images again
  • Semantic HTML5/CSS3 for modern browsers, with automatic fallback to non-semantic HTML4/CSS2 for older browsers.
  • Lightweight and fast processing of images, even inside post content
  • Fully compatible with common caching and optimization plugins and solutions, such as W3 Total Cache, Wordfence, WPEngine’s EverCache, Better WordPress Minify, and Google’s PageSpeed Module.
  • Lets you take full advantage of the new responsive srcset features added in WordPress 4.4, to make the most of your images.
  • NEW! Legacy support for existing cropped thumb sizes allows you to see improvements, right out of the box, without changing your CSS!
