Netgold AVIF Converter

Netgold AVIF Converter by NETGOLD is a lightweight, strictly non-invasive tool designed to skyrocket your WordPress website performance by serving next-generation AVIF images.

AVIF provides superior compression compared to WebP and traditional JPEG/PNG formats, significantly improving your Google PageSpeed Insights score and Core Web Vitals without losing visual quality.

🚀 Key Features

• Strictly Non-Invasive: We never alter your database or HTML structure. The plugin dynamically serves AVIF files to compatible browsers using intelligent .htaccess rewrite rules. The original file URLs (like .jpg or .png) remain untouched in your source code.
• Smart Bulk Conversion Tool: Convert your entire media library with a single click. Our CPU-safe, batch-processing algorithm ensures your server never times out or crashes, even on shared hosting environments.
• Live Log Console: Real-time reporting of the conversion process! Watch exactly which files are being processed and see the precise savings for every single image.
• Granular Exclusions: Need to keep a specific image in its original format? Use our native Media Library picker to exclude individual files from optimization with one click.
• Anti-RAM Shield: Built-in protection that automatically detects and skips extremely large images (over 16Mpx) to prevent server memory exhaustion and crashes.
• Intelligent Resume: Process got interrupted? No problem. The Bulk Converter automatically remembers where it left off and resumes seamlessly.
• Broad Directory Support: Not just for the Media Library! You can choose to convert images located in /uploads, /themes, and /plugins directories.
• Visual Dashboard: Track your optimization progress with a clean, modern UI featuring a real-time progress circle and a live “Total Disk Space Saved” calculator.
• Safe Revert: Deactivating the plugin instantly removes the .htaccess rules, immediately reverting your site to serving the original images. No lock-in!
