Why does WordPress convert image size to low res when uploading?
-
Hi there,
When Im trying to upload any images that are around 2mb to 4mb to the media library, WordPress automatically convert the image size to around 500kb to 600kb which can be too low quality for certain cases. It was not like this before, does anyone know how to upload the image and to keep their own sizes?
thank you!

I don’t see any WordPress.com sites under your account here.
What is the URL of the site with the problem?

Your site is not hosted with WordPress.com. It is a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted with GoDaddy.
Because WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two entirely separate entities, we cannot access files or data for sites that are hosted elsewhere, so WordPress.com staff can only assist with sites that are hosted on our servers. You can find more information here about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/
https://wordpress.org/support/ is a great resource for sites using the open source WordPress.org software, and you can find support for that at: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
Your hosting provider’s support team may also be able to assist.
