## Description

rMG – Image Optimizer improves image delivery by analyzing how images are actually
displayed on your published WordPress pages.

Instead of only compressing uploads or relying on existing WordPress thumbnail sizes,
rMG can inspect selected public pages at configured desktop, tablet, and mobile 
viewports. It measures displayed image dimensions and creates separate optimized
variants for those placements.

Your original Media Library uploads remain unchanged.

#### Optimize the rendered page

rMG focuses on how images are used after the page layout has rendered. This helps
reduce the delivery of images that are much larger than the space where they appear.

Key features include:

 * Post-render analysis of selected published pages.
 * Right-sized variants for desktop, tablet, and mobile viewports.
 * WebP and AVIF output formats.
 * Page-specific image optimization and reoptimization.
 * Adjustable quality, sharpening, lazy loading, and fade-in controls.
 * Page-level image savings and optimization status.
 * Management and removal of generated variants.
 * Original Media Library uploads remain untouched.

If an optimized variant is unavailable, the original image remains available as 
a fallback.

rMG is a free service provided by ProxSEO.

### External Services

This plugin connects to the hosted ProxSEO rMG image optimization service when an
administrator starts site optimization, requests optimization for a page, or runs
queued background optimization.

The service analyzes selected published pages, measures displayed image dimensions,
and returns analysis results to the WordPress site. The plugin creates optimized
image variants locally on the WordPress server.

The service may receive:

 * The site URL and site name.
 * The installed plugin version.
 * The installed WordPress version.
 * Selected published page URLs or page IDs.
 * Configured viewport names.
 * Image and page metadata required for optimization.

The service may request selected publicly accessible pages to analyze how their 
images are displayed to visitors.

## FAQ

### What makes rMG different from other image optimizers?

Many image optimizers compress uploaded files or use existing WordPress image sizes.
rMG analyzes selected rendered pages, measures how images are displayed at configured
viewports, and creates variants for those placements.

### Will rMG change my original images?

No. Your original Media Library uploads remain unchanged. rMG creates separate optimized
variants that can be removed without deleting the source files.

### Which image formats does rMG support?

rMG can generate optimized images in WebP or AVIF format.

### How does rMG optimize images for different devices?

rMG analyzes configured desktop, tablet, and mobile viewports separately, then creates
variants based on how images are displayed within those layouts.

### Can I optimize individual pages?

Yes. You can optimize or reoptimize selected published pages, run site-wide optimization,
or leave specific pages untouched.

### Does rMG use an external service?

Yes. Page analysis uses the hosted ProxSEO rMG service. Image variants are generated
locally by the plugin. See the External Services section for details about when 
the service is contacted and what information may be sent.
