EIR - Easy Image Resizer

Version 6.1.0.0-PRO - 2026-06-17

• + Vollständige Modernisierung von Easy Image Resizer Pro hinzugefügt – EIR wurde für Joomla 6 vollständig neu aufgebaut und verwendet nun eine serviceorientierte Architektur mit Dependency Injection, readonly-Konfigurationsobjekten, modernen PHP-Funktionen und einer deutlich schlankeren Plugin-Struktur.
• + Neue Batch-Aktion zum Erstellen von Backup-Bildern hinzugefügt – eine eigene Aktion „Create Backup Images“ wurde ergänzt, mit der Backup-Bilder unabhängig vom vollständigen Optimierungsprozess erzeugt werden können.
• + Neue Option zum Überschreiben vorhandener WebP-Bilder hinzugefügt – die Batch-WebP-Konvertierung enthält nun eine eigene Einstellung, mit der gesteuert werden kann, ob bereits vorhandene WebP-Dateien bei der Konvertierung bestehender Bilder ersetzt werden sollen.
• + Neue Option zum Löschen der Originalbilder nach der WebP-Konvertierung hinzugefügt – die Batch-Verarbeitung kann nun optional die ursprünglichen Quelldateien nach erfolgreicher WebP-Konvertierung entfernen und ermöglicht damit auf Wunsch einen aggressiveren Optimierungs-Workflow.
• + Live-Werte aus dem Admin-Formular werden nun für Batch-Aktionen verwendet – Batch-Optimierungsanfragen berücksichtigen jetzt die aktuell sichtbaren Formulareinstellungen wie Startpfad, Überschreiboptionen und WebP-Qualität, ohne dass die Konfiguration vorher gespeichert werden muss.
• + Umfangreiche automatisierte Test-Infrastruktur hinzugefügt – die Modernisierung brachte vollständige PHPUnit- und Playwright-Abdeckung mit sich, einschließlich Characterization-Tests, Service-Tests sowie End-to-End-Regressionsprüfungen für Frontend und Backend.
• ! Veraltete monolithische Architektur entfernt – die bisherige große Helper- und Plugin-zentrierte Struktur wurde durch eine modulare servicebasierte Architektur mit eigenen Interfaces und klar getrennten Zuständigkeiten ersetzt.
• ^ Plugin-Architektur grundlegend modernisiert – die Plugin-Klasse wurde auf einen schlanken Event-Delegator reduziert, während die Kernlogik nun von extrahierten Services für Upload-Orchestrierung, Resize, Batch-Optimierung, Backup-Verwaltung, WebP-Konvertierung und weitere Aufgaben übernommen wird.
• ^ Typsicherheit und interne Codequalität deutlich verbessert – EIR verwendet nun readonly-Konfigurationsobjekte, Enums, strikte Typisierung, Named Arguments und moderne Joomla-6-/PHP-8.3-Entwicklungsmuster im gesamten Code.
• ^ Rückmeldungen bei der Batch-Optimierung ehrlicher und transparenter gestaltet – Batch-Aktionen liefern nun zählbasierte Erfolgsmeldungen sowie Warnungen, wenn keine Dateien verarbeitet, übersprungen oder gefunden wurden, was für deutlich klareres Feedback im Backend sorgt.
• # PHP-8.5-Deprecation-Problem behoben – veraltete imagedestroy()-Aufrufe wurden aus dem WebP-Konvertierungsprozess entfernt, um die Vorwärtskompatibilität mit neueren PHP-Versionen sicherzustellen.

Version 6.0.1.0-PRO - 2026-06-08

• ^ Allgemeine Code-Verbesserungen durchgeführt – die interne Implementierung wurde bereinigt und überarbeitet, um Wartbarkeit, Lesbarkeit und die allgemeine Robustheit zu verbessern.
• ^ Abruf der Event-Objektdaten aktualisiert – die Event-Verarbeitung wurde modernisiert und verwendet nun die dedizierten Zugriffsmethoden getContext(), getData() und getIsNew(), anstatt über getArgument() auf positionsbasierte Argumente zuzugreifen.
• ^ Verhalten bei Security-Token-Prüfungen entschärft und verbessert – blockierte Lizenzzustände führen nicht mehr zu Änderungen am Veröffentlichungsstatus oder an gespeicherten Konfigurationsdaten. Stattdessen bleibt die bestehende Konfiguration vollständig erhalten und es erfolgt nur noch eine Weiterleitung mit Fehlermeldung.
• # Gemeldeten Typfehler im globalen Files-Objekt behoben – ein Typfehler wurde korrigiert, bei dem int anstelle von string für Array-Keys im globalen Files-Objekt verwendet wurde, was in betroffenen Szenarien zu fehlerhaftem Verhalten führen konnte. Danke an Markus B. fürs Melden!

• + Option Convert images to WebP for image uploads. With this option, the uploaded images are also automatically converted into the WebP format and stored as a copy. Important: For image uploads of third-party extensions, the storage location is usually unknown. JCE transmits the destination folder in the request. Therefore, the folder can be determined. If the plugin cannot read out the path, the WebP images are stored in the main folder images!
• ^ Safe upload names for all image uploads - by core and third-party extensions.
• ^ Existing images optimsation for WebP - broken images are skipped, and the next image in the list is processed.

Version 3.8.1.0-PRO - 2021-05-11

Version 3.7.0-PRO - 2020-05-22

• + Optimisation of all existing images - With this feature, you may optimise all images for the Joomla! website with one click. The rules from the settings are applied to each image. Easy Image Resizer allows a reversible optimisation, a backup file of each image is created by default and used in further image processes. You can restore all images from the backup files with one click or by renaming the files manually!
• + New action buttons: Optimise All Images, Find All Images, Find Backup Images, Restore Backup Images and Delete Backup Images
• + Optimisation start path - Set the starting path that will be searched recursively for images. If you only want to optimise specific images, then you should specify the exact path to these images. The more specific you are, the faster the image optimisation process is executed!
• + Create backup images - Original images are renamed to image.eirBck.[jpg/png/gif] and kept as a reference for further optimisation processes. This option enables a reversible optimisation. Strongly recommended!
• ^ Updated Optimus.io integration

Version 3.4.0 - 2016-03-30

• + All Image Uploads - With this option images from all upload processes from an HTML form are processed with the optimization algorithm by Optimus.io. This means that also image uploads from 3rd party extensions (e.g. JCE editor or image gallery extensions) are optimized automatically. Note: This option does not change the resolution of the image but it only optimizes the images losslessly!
• ^ Safe Upload Names - Uses dashes instead of underscores to replace whitespaces

Version 3.3.0 - 2016-03-15

• + Optimus.io integration - Service for lossless compression of images. This service is completely free for images (in JPEG and PNG formats) up to 100KB, it requires cURL on the server to make the requests. If you need professional features (images up to 5MB and HTTPS connection), then buy an Optimus HQ API key. Further information: Optimus.io
• + Code Refactoring
• ^ Updated Language Files

Version 3.2.2 - 2016-01-27

• + Option: Enlarge Images - Should smaller images be enlarged to the dimension that was calculated by the selected scale method? Attention: This will lead to notable quality loss! If this option is deactivated, then multi-size images that would be larger after resizing, are not created and main images are not processed.
• + Added JED link in the language files

Version 3.2.1 - 2016-01-19

• + Safe Upload Names - With this option image names are converted to make them safe for the upload process. UTF8 characters are encoded to ASCII, special characters are removed, whitespaces are replaced with underscores and the resulting string is converted to lowercase.

Version 3-3 - 2014-12-04

• + Multi Resizing Feature - With this feature you can enter all sizes that you need from an uploaded image. EIR automatically creates a folder with the name 'resized' in the upload folder and generates the resized images in it, it also adds the resolution to the image name of the resized images. You should enter at least the resolution (width and height) of the resized images, additionally you also can define the proportionality and quality values. In fact, one integer value is sufficient which will be used for the width. If you don't set the optional values for proportionality and quality, then the values from the single image resizing are used. The parameters are: width (integer), height (integer), proportionality (1 true, 0 false), quality (0-100). Enter one resolution each line, separate the parameters with a | (pipe symbol).

Version 3-2 - 2014-04-02

• # Quality parameter - fixed small typo

Version 3-1 - 2014-03-31
