Migrating from Imagify to ShortPixel is fairly simple, all you need to do is follow the steps below:
- Restore your images to their original state either using Imagify or your hosting provider’s backups. (This is mainly helpful to avoid overcompression issues, but it’s not mandatory.)
- Install and enable ShortPixel Image Optimizer
- Disable Imagify
- Choose the settings that you need from ShortPixel Image Optimizer and run a Bulk Optimization(Media > Bulk ShortPixel).
That’s it, you’re all set! 🙂
