Drupal Image Optimizer

About

Drupal Image Optimizer is a powerful Chrome extension designed to streamline your image workflow when working with Drupal websites. It automatically detects image upload fields in Drupal admin forms and adds a convenient "⚡ Optimize" button, allowing you to compress, convert, and resize images before uploading—all without leaving your browser.

🎯 WHY USE DRUPAL IMAGE OPTIMIZER?

Working with images in Drupal can be time-consuming. Large, unoptimized images slow down your site, consume storage space, and create poor user experiences. Traditional optimization tools require external services, multiple steps, or desktop software. Drupal Image Optimizer solves all these problems by bringing professional-grade image optimization directly into your Drupal admin workflow.

✨ KEY FEATURES

🚀 One-Click Optimization
Instantly optimize images with a single click. The extension automatically detects image upload fields in Drupal admin forms and adds an "⚡ Optimize" button next to each field. No need to manually process images in separate tools or applications.

🔒 100% Local Processing & Privacy-First
All image processing happens entirely within your browser using native HTML5 Canvas API. Your images never leave your device—no uploads to external servers, no data collection, no privacy concerns. Perfect for sensitive content, confidential projects, or when working offline.

📐 Smart Format Conversion
Convert images to modern formats for better performance:
• WebP: Superior compression (typically 25-35% smaller than JPEG) with excellent quality retention
• PNG: Maximum compatibility for when WebP isn't supported
• Automatic format detection based on your preferences

🗜️ Intelligent Compression
Reduce file sizes significantly while maintaining visual quality. The extension uses browser-native compression algorithms to optimize images without noticeable quality loss, helping your Drupal site load faster and use less storage.

📏 Smart Resizing
Automatically resize images to your preferred maximum dimensions while maintaining aspect ratio. Choose from preset widths (600px, 1200px, 1920px) or set custom dimensions. Perfect for responsive web design and reducing unnecessary file sizes.

📝 Filename Normalization
Automatically clean and normalize filenames for better compatibility. Removes special characters, spaces, and ensures proper file extensions, preventing upload issues and improving SEO.

⚙️ Customizable Settings
Configure default optimization preferences through the extension popup:
• Default output format (WebP or PNG)

• Settings are saved locally and persist across sessions

🎨 Visual Preview & Control
