## FAQ
### Features of neo Optimize
**Which features are included in the plugin?**
The main features of the Image Optimizer plugin are:
* ✅ Maximize the SEO ranking of your images 🎉
* ✅ Original images and database remain untouched
* ✅ Resizing on your own server
* ✅ Free AVIF and WebP support for served images
* ✅ Optimization of neoDraw SVG graphics
* ✅ Image scaling based on the display size in the frontend
### In short
**What is neoOptimize?**
The [neoOptimize](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-optimize/) plugin is a **WordPress
image optimization plugin**. It automatically reduces images to the actually required
display size and converts image files to the efficient **AVIF format**. This makes
images load faster and your website more performant, which positively affects **
SEO ranking**.
What makes [neoOptimize](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-optimize/) special is that
the **original images remain unchanged** and the optimized versions are stored in
a separate cache directory. The plugin also works **without credit packages** because
it optimizes images **for free on your own server**.
### Local optimization
**Are my images sent to external servers?**
The [neoOptimize](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-optimize/) plugin processes your
images **directly on your own server**. Local server functions such as **Imagick**
or **PHP GD** are used for image optimization. This means you **do not need credit
packages** for external image services or any additional cloud processing.
This makes the optimization **free**, **privacy-friendly** and **independent** from
external providers.
### Original images remain intact
**Does neoOptimize change my original images?**
Your original images and database remain **fully intact**. The [neoOptimize](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-optimize/)
plugin only creates **optimized copies in the cache** and serves those in the frontend.
The original files in your media library are not overwritten.
Your **WordPress database also remains untouched**. When the site loads, only the
image URL in the frontend is replaced with the optimized cache version.
**If you deactivate or uninstall neoOptimize, everything returns to the way it was.**
### WebP and image quality
**What image quality should I set?**
For most websites we recommend an **AVIF quality of 75%**. The **AVIF format** is
very efficient, so even lower quality settings often still look very good and produce
significantly smaller files. You can also switch to the more widely supported WebP
format for maximum compatibility.
In the [neoOptimize](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-optimize/) settings you can conveniently
select the quality and directly evaluate it via a **preview with file size**. This
helps you quickly find the right balance between high image quality and fast loading
times.
### Retina factor
**What does the retina factor do?**
The **retina factor** controls the **pixel density** at which images are displayed
for high-resolution screens. A **higher value** makes images appear **sharper**
on retina displays but also increases file size.
The [neoOptimize](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-optimize/) plugin uses a **default****
retina factor of 1.5x** to improve the rendering of small text, icons and image
details on retina displays. In the [Pro version](https://neo-wp.com/pricing/) you
can set the retina factor individually and compare it directly in the preview.
### Clear cache
**When should I clear the neoOptimize cache?**
Under normal operation it is **not necessary** to clear the neoOptimize cache. The
clear cache button can be useful if you want to **remove old image variants after
many tests** or clean up after major changes to image sizes in a page builder. Afterwards
the optimized images are **automatically regenerated** when they are needed again
in the frontend.
If you change image quality, the retina factor or other **optimization settings**,
[neoOptimize](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-optimize/) **automatically creates new
optimized images**. When an image is **deleted** from the WordPress media library
the associated cache files are **automatically removed**. Even optimized images
that were renamed with [neoRename](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-rename/) are cleaned
up automatically.
The **Clear cache** button is therefore mainly intended as a **reset and cleanup
function**.
### Page Builder
**Does neoOptimize work with my page builder?**
**Yes**, [neoOptimize](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-optimize/) works with all common
page builders. These include [Bricks](https://bricksbuilder.io/), [Elementor](https://elementor.com/),
[Divi](https://www.elegantthemes.com/gallery/divi/), [Beaver](https://www.wpbeaverbuilder.com/),
[Oxygen](https://oxygenbuilder.com/), [Breakdance](https://breakdance.com/) and
[Gutenberg](https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/).
neoOptimize can **automatically read the configured image sizes** and use them as
the basis for optimization. This ensures the image is adapted as closely as possible
to the actual display size and cached for fast delivery.
### Override image sizes
**Can I set image size and quality per image manually?**
**Yes.** You can override the automatically detected optimization per image using
[**HTML attributes**](https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_attributes.asp). This
is especially useful when an image is displayed differently in a page builder than
it can be detected automatically. Examples:
```
```
With the [Pro version](https://neo-wp.com/pricing/) you can additionally control
the **retina factor** and the algorithm used per image:
```
```
### Supported formats
**Which image formats does neoOptimize support?**
The image optimization in [neoOptimize](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-optimize/)
supports many common raster formats, including [JPG](https://jpeg.org/), [JPEG](https://jpeg.org/),
[PNG](https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/file-types/image/raster/png-file.html),
[GIF](https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/file-types/image/raster/gif-file.html),
[WebP](https://developers.google.com/speed/webp), [AVIF](https://caniuse.com/avif),
[BMP](https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/file-types/image/raster/bmp-file.html),
[HEIC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Efficiency_Image_File_Format), [HEIF](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Efficiency_Image_File_Format),
[TIFF](https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/file-types/image/raster/tiff-file.html)
and many other formats if they can be processed on your server by [Imagick](https://imagemagick.org/)
or [PHP GD](https://www.php.net/manual/en/book.image.php).
Raster images are optimized, scaled and stored as **[AVIF](https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2024/08/happy-avifriday)**
files in the cache. In addition, neoOptimize can also optimize special [neoDraw](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-draw/)
[SVG graphics](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalable_Vector_Graphics) for frontend
output.
### neoDraw SVGs optimize
**How does neoOptimize optimize drawings from neoDraw?**
If an image was created with [neoDraw](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-draw/), [neoOptimize](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-optimize/)
can automatically optimize it when serving it in the frontend. Unnecessary **editor
data is removed** for display and embedded raster images are converted to the efficient**
AVIF format**.
The original neoDraw file remains fully intact and editable. Visitors get a slimmer,
faster version in the frontend while you can still work with the editable original
drawing in the backend.
### Neo universe
**What is the neoUniverse?**
The **neoUniverse** is more than just a plugin collection. It is your complete **
toolbox for all media challenges** in WordPress. It currently includes ten specialized
plugins: [**neoLibrary**](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-library/), [**neoRename**](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-rename/),
[**neoReplace**](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-replace/), [**neoDuplicate**](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-duplicate/),
[**neoOptimize**](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-optimize/), [**neoLazy**](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-lazy/),
[**neoDraw**](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-draw/), [**neoAnimate**](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-animate/)
and [**neoMotion**](https://neo-wp.com/plugin/neo-motion/). They work seamlessly
together, are perfectly matched and cover all areas around media management, SEO
and performance. Whether renaming images, replacing files, optimizing SEO, enabling
lazy load or drawing and animating content. The neoUniverse makes your media workflow
noticeably simpler and more efficient. And the best part: the neoUniverse keeps
growing. New tools and features make your WordPress everyday life even better.
### Download with Safari
**Why is only a folder shown when downloading?**
**If you use Safari**, your Mac may automatically extract the ZIP file. Instead
of the ZIP file you then only get the extracted folder. You cannot upload this directly
to WordPress.
Solution: Open **Safari preferences** and disable the option **”Open safe files
after downloading”**. After that the ZIP file will remain as you need it.
The video titled ”How to disable Safari auto extract for ZIP files when downloading
WordPress plugins” on YouTube shows you exact details.
### More questions
