IM.CON WordPress Image Converter Plugin

Description

A lightweight WordPress plugin that lets site administrators convert images (JPG, PNG, WEBP, AVIF) via a drag‑&‑drop admin UI. After conversion the plugin stores the image in the Media Library, shows a preview, and generates a shortcode that can be embedded on any post or page.

Features

Drag‑&‑drop / file‑selector UI in a custom admin dashboard.
Automatic conversion (placeholder – uses the original image for now, can be extended with GD/Imagick).
Preview of the uploaded image immediately after conversion.
Generated shortcode [im_con_image id="{attachment_id}"] ready to copy.
Settings page for default conversion quality.
System‑Status page showing GD/Imagick availability and upload directory writability.
Shortcode support with optional size and custom CSS class.

Installation

Copy the entire im-con-plugin folder into wp-content/plugins/ on your WordPress site.
In the WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Installed Plugins and click Activate.
The activation hook flushes rewrite rules automatically.
Navigate to IM.CON → Dashboard to start converting images.

Shortcode Usage

Insert the shortcode generated by the dashboard (or manually) into any post or page:

[im_con_image id="123"]

Optional attributes:

size – WordPress image size slug (thumbnail, medium, large, etc.). Default: large.
class – Custom CSS class for the <img> tag. Default: im-con-output.

Example:

[im_con_image id="123" size="medium" class="my‑custom‑class"]

Requirements

WordPress 5.0 or later.
PHP 7.4+ with the GD library or Imagick extension installed (at least one is required for conversion).
Write permissions on the wp‑uploads directory.
No external dependencies; all assets are bundled in the plugin.

Development & Extending

Conversion logic can be expanded in includes/class-im-con-engine.php (currently a placeholder).
UI styles are in admin/css/im-con-admin.css; feel free to customize.
JavaScript is in admin/js/im-con-admin.js using jQuery and WordPress media scripts.
