Free WordPress plugin

JYP Image Transparency Converter

Prepare your images directly in WordPress. Remove backgrounds, resize images, convert formats, and process multiple files without leaving your Media Library.

JYP Image Transparency Converter is designed to make repetitive image preparation quicker and less tedious. Configure your conversion settings, select the images you need, and let WordPress handle the rest.

Converted images are saved and registered in the WordPress Media Library just like normally uploaded files.

What you can do

Background removal

Make image backgrounds transparent

Convert a selected background colour to transparency. The plugin uses the top-left pixel as the background reference and lets you control how much colour variation should be included.

Image dimensions

Resize images

Set the required width and height and choose whether the original proportions should be preserved during conversion.

PNG / WebP

Choose your output format

Convert images to PNG or WebP depending on how you want the resulting files to be used on your website.

Batch processing

Process multiple images

Select several images and process them using the same conversion settings instead of repeating the same operation for every file.

Conversion settings

The plugin keeps the conversion process straightforward while providing control over the settings that matter.

Background colour

Background tolerance

Controls how similar a colour can be to the sampled background before it is made transparent. Adjust the tolerance when the background contains slightly different shades.

PNG / WebP

Output format

Choose the format used for converted images. PNG is useful when transparency and lossless output are important, while WebP can provide a smaller file size for web use.

Width and height

Image dimensions

Define the target dimensions for converted images and choose whether the original aspect ratio should be preserved.

Output directory

Output location

Choose where converted files should be stored and decide whether the original directory structure should be preserved.

Process many images at once

Preparing a large collection of images one by one quickly becomes repetitive. JYP Image Transparency Converter lets you process multiple files using the same settings.

Multiple files

Batch conversion

Select multiple images and apply the same conversion settings to all of them in one operation.

Directories

Process local folders

Process the contents of a local directory, including files inside subdirectories, when working with larger image collections.

Consistent settings

Prepare a complete collection

Configure your conversion once and use the same settings across the selected files for more consistent results.

Converted images become WordPress media

Converted files are not simply left somewhere in the uploads directory. The plugin registers each successfully converted image as a normal WordPress attachment.

Media Library

Use converted images normally

Converted images appear in the WordPress Media Library and can be selected and used just like images uploaded manually.

WordPress attachments

Standard media registration

The plugin uses the standard WordPress attachment system when adding converted images to the Media Library.

Metadata

Generated image sizes

WordPress can generate the configured intermediate image sizes and store the corresponding metadata for the converted image.

Keep your images organised

Output files

Keep originals separate

Converted files use the -t suffix by default, making them easy to distinguish from the original images.

Directories

Preserve folder structure

When processing directories, the plugin can preserve the original directory structure in the output location.

Non-destructive workflow

Keep the original files

Prepare converted copies without having to replace the original image files in your collection.

See what is happening

Image conversion can take some time when processing a large number of files. The plugin provides a progress panel so you can follow the current conversion task.

Progress

Follow the conversion

See which images have been processed and follow the progress of the current conversion task.

Asynchronous processing

Keep working in WordPress

Conversion actions are performed asynchronously, helping you continue working in WordPress while selected images are being processed.

Built for WordPress

JYP Image Transparency Converter works with the standard WordPress media system, keeping converted images inside the workflow you already use.

Media Library

Native WordPress workflow

Converted images are registered as WordPress media items and remain available through the normal Media Library.

Imagick / GD

Uses available image processing

The plugin uses Imagick or GD depending on what is available on your WordPress installation.

WordPress uploads

Works with the uploads system

Converted files are stored using the WordPress uploads system and registered using the standard attachment API.

Automate image conversion

Image preparation does not have to remain a manual task. The plugin also provides options for integrating conversion into automated workflows.

REST API

Convert images programmatically

Use the REST API to send files or directories for conversion and define the required conversion settings through the request.

WP-CLI

Use the command line

Run image conversion from the command line and integrate it into existing development, deployment, or automation workflows.

Developer hooks

Extend the workflow

Developer hooks allow the conversion process to be integrated into custom WordPress functionality.
