Plugin Imprescindible
by Quique·10 months ago
Si trabajas con muchas imágenes, genera solo las miniaturas necesarias. Entre WordPress, woocommerce y el Tema puede generar más de 12 miniaturas y algunas con tamaños repetidos, tengo una web con más de 10.000 imágenes y me generaba 120.000 ficheros. Ahora tengo solo las necesarias.
