HEIC Support 2.3.1Latest
HEIC Support 2.3.0
- [Added] Adds .avif as an output format option alongside .webp and .jpg.
- [Added] Shows a dismissible warning right in the uploader when a .heic is added on a server that cannot convert locally and does not have cloud conversion set up, so the upload no longer fails silently.
- [Removed] Removes admin notices from the dashboard; feedback now appears in the uploader instead.
HEIC Support 2.2.1
- [Fixed] Shows a dismissible notice after a .heic is uploaded on a server that cannot convert locally and does not have cloud conversion set up, so the upload no longer fails silently.
- [Changed] Adds a link to the Privacy Policy in the external services disclosure.
HEIC Support 2.2.0
- [Added] Optional, opt-in cloud conversion for servers without ImageMagick/libheif. Enter a license key and enable it at Settings → Media; converts .heic uploads via the Breakfast cloud conversion service using purchased credits. See the External services section.
- [Changed] Changes the tested up to version to 7.0.
20251 release

20233 releases
HEIC Support 2.1.1
- [Added] Adds a screenshot of the plugin settings.

HEIC Support 2.1.0
- [Added] Adds .jpg support. Adds a setting to toggle whether images are converted to webp or jpg. Defaults to webp.

- [Changed] Changes the tested up to version to 6.3.1.
HEIC Support 2.0.0
- [Added] Add filters around the webp format and image/webp mime type strings so they can be changed by other developers.
- [Added] Adds an optional feature to replace .heic images rather than create a copy. A switch enables the feature at Settings → Media.
- [Fixed] Updates an error message to stop mentioning a specific minimum version of ImageMagick. It was not accurate, and other dependencies like libheif could be missing that prevent conversions from working.
- [Changed] Moves all plugin settings from Media → HEIC Support to Settings → Media.
- [Changed] Changes the tested up to version to 6.2.0.
- [Removed] Removes the menu at Media → HEIC Support.
