Works as expected

Works like indicated. Simple and efficient

Very Good Plugin

I recommend this. When there is diacritics in the file name, this simply substitutes that for a letter without diacritics. Works very well!

Works great on new uploads

This plugin simply disables the new WordPress 5.3 big image threshold function, so it’s super lightweight. It works great on new uploads, allowing to use image wider than 2560px. Thanks!

Just what I needed! Works great!

Thank you for making this plugin! It is just what I needed for my WordPress photo galleries.

My thanks

Thank you for developing the Disable “BIG Image” Threshold plugin. For those wishing to display photographs in their original form, the recent WordPress scaling “enhancement” was very troubling. Cart
