Hi,
I´m new at WordPress and try to build something.
I just replaced some png by new, more compressed versions and to save some work I
tried to replace them with the plugin “Media replace”.
Now I have to create new thumbnails-and tried via regenerate thumbnails plugin.
But obviously nothing happens-the files are as big as before..
How to solve that? One idea is to download via FTP, compress and replace the pictures.
But it would be more work than replacing the old picture by new directly…. :/

Hey nicibiene,
Wordpress is cropping images by default when uploading them and if you want to control this behavior you can use a plugin like this: https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-image-sizes
I hope this will help :).
Best regards,
Andy
