How to Stop WordPress compressing images?
WordPress Media Library is compressing uploaded jpeg images by default to 82% of their original quality. Before WordPress version 4.5 it was set to 90%.
If you want to have JPEG image quality back to 100% then it’s very simple.
Add below code to your theme’s functions.php file.
|
1 2 3 |
add_filter( 'jpeg_quality', function ( $arg ) { return 100; } ); |
