Hello @kapricious ,
Am I mistaken, or is Smush not really designed to automatically resize and deliver AMP-ready images?
Smush will optimize all the images in your media library. What do you mean by AMP-ready images? If you registered size for those images, Smush will also optimize that size.
If you didn’t register image size for AMP, Smush can’t add size on its own.
If you added that size after adding images, then you need to use plugin like that https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/
On a different note: it is disappointing not to find some way of excluding select images from Smush automatic compression
Here’s a little MU plugin that could be used to exclude specific images (by ID):
https://gist.github.com/wpmudev-sls/f07745e142e6dcb3c902838c9e428bfb
Just edit line #18 with the image(s) ID(s) and upload the PHP file to /wp-content/mu-plugins/ folder (just create the /mu-plugins/ folder, if it doesn’t exist already).
kind regards,
Kasia
Hello @kapricious ,
I’m sorry for creating confusion on my side!

We have that feature 🙂 (without using the code snippet, sorry). You can ignore images directly from the Media Library. Next to the Smush link there is Ignore and it does exactly what you need. It excludes images from bulk Smush.

Hello Kasia,
Thank you for the wonderful assistance.
By “amp-ready images”, I meant images that were more appropriately sized images generated exclusively for mobile AMP. Example: my main banner graphic is 2000 px wide, great for desktop version. However, my understanding is AMP is generally 425 px wide (max). To improve pagespeed scores, its suggested to either have a way to auto-resize and deliver properly sized images or have two sets. Was hoping Smush had some way to accomplish this automatically, so I don’t have to continue modifying the actual size of all of my graphics.
I also do not see the “Smush | Ignore” options you showed. In my Media Library, I select an image and the only Smush-related stuff I see includes a “View Stats” link, but no other links/options I can select. Explored the “Edit Image” link thinking maybe it was in there, but no luck.
Thank you again for your help!
Hello @kapricious
I trust you are doing well!
I’m afraid Smush plugin doesn’t resize thumbnails images, it only can resize originally uploaded images. Thumbnails images, for mobile included, can be resized with Smush CDN that is not available in free version of the plugin.
I also do not see the “Smush | Ignore” options you showed.
The “View Stats” is showing up when an image is already being optimized. Please upload a new image without optimizing it and Ignore option will be shown.
Let us know if you have any further questions!
