Image upload sorted and site is faster too!
WooCommerce image uploader was a pain in the arse BUT this plugin solved two big failures in WooCommerce! Image upload was not updating newer product images - somehow the older image was appearing even after deletion from the media gallery! Site is a bit faster after global conversion of jpegs to webp. Thank you
