Make Wordpress compress full size image?
Regardless of size uploaded, I need Wordpress to compress the original full size image to 30% upon upload. Full size is the only image I use.
I have already disabled all thumbnail creation upon upload. I have added a filter to change the compression of thumbnails to 30%.
add_filter('jpeg_quality', function($arg){return 30;});
However, as you know, the original upload is not compressed but retained as the full size original. I want to compress it and either create a new thumbnail of the same dimensions (if I must) or ideally, overwrite the original full size image with the compressed version.
Any ideas other than plugins? I already have a functionality plugin I keep with all my custom functions. I would like to add the solution to that plugin if possible.
Thanks!
