Description
Allows .heic uploads to the Media Library. Creates .webp or .jpg copies of .heic images when they are uploaded. An optional feature replaces the original upload instead of creating a copy.
Creation of .webp or .jpg copies usually works on servers running ImageMagick 7 or above. Check Settings Media HEIC Support after activating to see if your server provides ImageMagick.
Screenshots
The settings are located at Settings Media HEIC Support in the dashboard.
Installation
- Upload the entire
heic-supportfolder to the/wp-content/plugins/directory. - Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen (Plugins Installed Plugins).
Check the page at Media HEIC Support after activating to see if your server provides ImageMagick 7.
