 * Hey [@educationguideonline](https://wordpress.org/support/users/educationguideonline/),
 * Hope you’re well!
 * By default, bulk smush will only be smushing your media library with default 
   uploads folder. So any other folder images will remain untouched. There is also
   folder smushing feature and you can use it to smush your themes/plugins assets
   or any folder you want.
 * But it’s always good practice to backup your website before trying new things,
   especially big changes like smushing all your images 🙂 Hope this helps!
 * Cheers,
    Oguz
