Imsanity Compatibility with WP All Import

    Dear Imsanity Support Team,

    I’m using Imsanity to resize and optimize images on my WordPress site, and it works great for manual uploads through the media library. However, when importing images via WP All Import, Imsanity’s automatic resizing and optimization features do not seem to trigger, even though WordPress’s built-in scaling (e.g., for images exceeding 2560px) works fine.

    From what I understand, this might be because WP All Import does not use the standard wp_handle_upload hook, which Imsanity relies on for processing images during upload. As a result, imported images are not automatically resized or compressed by Imsanity, and I have to use the bulk resize feature manually after the import, which is time-consuming for large imports and is often forgotten.

    It would be fantastic if Imsanity could be made compatible with WP All Import to automatically resize and optimize images during the import process. This would greatly streamline workflows for users who rely on both plugins for managing large numbers of images. Has there been any progress or plans to address this compatibility issue? Are there any workarounds (other than bulk resize) to make Imsanity work seamlessly with WP All Import?

    Thank you for your support and any insights you can provide!

    Hi @networka

    Thanks for the question, it’s a good one! Unfortunately, the short answer is that we probably won’t be creating a specialized hook for WP All Import.

    For the long answer, one of the great things about WordPress is that they provide standardized hooks that everyone can use to ensure compatibility. If something bypasses those hooks, then compatibility can’t be guaranteed.

    In this instance, if WP All Import is bypassing the wp_handle_upload_hook, then other standard plugins that use those hooks, such as Imsanity, won’t be able to work with them. We could potentially build a workaround specifically for WP All Import, but what if they change their process in the next build? It becomes something that we have to maintain and keep track of when, really, that process is already there with the standardized hooks.

    For reference, I believe that our other plugin, EWWW Image Optimizer, does work with WP All Import and can allow for automatic resizing of your images, however, it only allows for one maximum image dimension threshold (which overrides the standard WordPress scaling).
