Create New Image dialog Free 35 items #

The New Image dialog picks a size preset or custom dimensions, then starts a blank canvas, an AI generation, or a template.

Reached through File, then New (and shown as the welcome start screen when the editor opens with no image). A preset list runs down the left side; the main area has three tabs: Blank Canvas, Generate with AI, and Templates.

The footer shows a live memory estimate for the chosen size and warns as the canvas gets very large. Browsers cannot draw canvases beyond about 16000 px per side, so the Create button is blocked past that limit.

Blank Canvas

#

Starts an empty document at the chosen size, name, resolution, color mode, and background. This is the default tab.

Default tabYes

Generate with AI

AICloud AI#

Generates a full image straight onto a new canvas from a text prompt, using a configured AI image provider. The result lands as an AI Generation layer sized to the canvas.

Tip. Needs at least one image provider configured in Settings.

Templates

#

Opens a starter template, an extension template pack, or one of your saved dynamic templates as a new document.

Instagram Square

Export / Save dialog Free 37 items #

One dialog for downloading a file, saving over the media library image, or saving a copy as a new attachment, with format, quality, scale, metadata, and batch options.

This dialog runs in three modes and its title and primary button change to match. Save to Media Library overwrites the current attachment (keeping a version). Save as New Attachment (called Apply when opened from a page builder) writes a copy. Export downloads a file without touching the library.

A live flattened preview sits at the top. Below it are the format picker and the quality, scale, and (where needed) flatten controls, followed by batch export, presets, watermark, and metadata sections. When a post preview is active, export renders the resolved dynamic content while the saved project keeps its placeholders.

Dialog modes

#

The dialog opens as Save (overwrite the library image), Save as / Apply (write a copy or hand it back to a page builder), or Export (download only). Metadata and project options show only outside Export mode.

Overwriting and image optimizers

#

Saving over the library image keeps the same URL, and that is what makes this worth knowing. Optimization plugins that deliver WebP or AVIF (Imagify, ShortPixel, EWWW, Smush, Optimole and others work this way) serve a converted copy from that same URL, and that copy was made from the previous version of the picture. Until the optimizer converts the image again, the editor and the media library show your edit while the public page can still show the old one. Two ways around it: re-optimize that single image in whichever optimizer you use, or choose Save as New Attachment, which writes a copy with its own URL that no stale conversion can point at. WunderPaint reports every overwrite to WordPress through wp_update_attachment_metadata(), the signal optimization plugins are meant to listen for; what they do with it is theirs to decide.

EU AI label

#

Places one of the European Commission's official emblems for AI disclosure into the picture, and can record the matching IPTC entry in the file. Starts on None and does nothing unless you pick a motif. See the next section.

EU AI labels Free 5 items #

The European Commission's official emblems for disclosing AI involvement, applied when saving or exporting, and only when you ask for one.

Three motifs, each in black, white and half-opacity versions, shipped with the plugin as the Commission publishes them. They are free to use and need no attribution.

Nothing is ever applied on its own. The editor does not inspect your design, does not guess and never suggests a label, because the disclosure rules are about content that could be taken for something real, not about every illustration, and only the person who made it knows which one it is.

EU AI label

#

Places one of the European Commission's official emblems for AI disclosure into the exported picture. Three motifs: a basic emblem, Fully AI-generated, and Partially AI-modified. The list starts on None and nothing is applied unless you pick a motif yourself. The editor never inspects a design or suggests one, because only you know whether what you made could be taken for a real photograph.

Availabilityevery still format, including WebP and AVIF; not for GIF, APNG, WebM or PSDFilesthe Commission's own SVGs, free to use without attribution

Emblem color

#

Black, white, or either of those at half opacity, matching the four variants the Commission publishes. Pick the one that stays readable on your picture.

Emblem position

#

Which corner the emblem is stamped into, or the center. It is drawn onto the finished export the same way a watermark is.

Defaultbottom right

Emblem size

#

Size as a percent of the export width. The basic emblem is square and the other two are wide bars, so each motif starts at its own value, chosen so all three end up about the same height.

Also record it in the file metadata

#

A second box, empty unless you tick it, that writes the matching IPTC digital source type into the file as well. That is the vocabulary picture agencies and image search read, so an image can declare its origin even where the emblem is cropped away. The metadata entry itself can only be written into PNG and JPEG, so the box appears for those two; the emblem on the picture is not limited that way. Nothing is written to the file unless this is on.

Image Size / Canvas Size dialog Free 12 items #

A Photoshop-style dialog to change pixel dimensions, either resampling the whole image or resizing just the canvas around an anchor.

The same dialog runs in two modes. Image Size resamples the whole document, scaling every layer to the new dimensions. Canvas Size changes the canvas area only, keeping layers at their pixel size and adding or trimming space around an anchor point.

Width and height can be entered in pixels or as a percentage. Both dimensions are clamped between 1 and 12000 px, and Image Size additionally caps the total at 24 megapixels.

Image Size (mode)

#

Resamples the whole document to new dimensions, scaling all layers uniformly. Use it to make the finished image larger or smaller. Offers the aspect-ratio link.

Max area24 megapixels

Canvas Size (mode)

#

Changes the canvas dimensions without scaling layers, adding or cropping space around an anchor. Use it to give a design more room or to trim it. Adds the Relative option and the anchor grid.

Current size

#

A read-only line showing the document's present width and height in pixels, for reference before you change it.

Width

#

The target width in the current unit. In Image Size with the link on, height follows to keep the aspect ratio. Press Enter to apply.

DefaultCurrent document widthRange1 to 12000 px

Height

#

The target height in the current unit. In Image Size with the link on, width follows to keep the aspect ratio. Press Enter to apply.

DefaultCurrent document heightRange1 to 12000 px

Unit (px / %)

#

Switches the width and height fields between absolute pixels and a percentage of the current size. Switching converts the current values so the target stays the same.

Optionspx, %Defaultpx

Relative

#

In Canvas Size, treats the width and height values as an amount to add or remove rather than an absolute size. Positive numbers grow the canvas, negative numbers trim it. Zeroes the fields when toggled.

AvailabilityCanvas Size onlyDefaultOff

Anchor

#

A 3 by 3 grid choosing where the existing content sits as the canvas grows or shrinks. Centre keeps content centred; a corner or edge pins content there and adds space on the opposite sides. Canvas Size only.

PositionsTop-left, Top, Top-right, Left, Center, Right, Bottom-left, Bottom, Bottom-rightDefaultCenter

#

Commits the resize. Disabled while the new size is invalid; Image Size also shows an error and stops if the result would exceed 24 megapixels.

Range1 to 12000 px per side

Resize Design dialog Free 13 items #

Retargets the whole design to a different format, scaling every layer uniformly and recentering so nothing gets distorted.

Unlike Image Size, this dialog is built for changing the shape of a design (for example from a square post to a vertical story). It rescales all layers together and recenters the composition, so proportions are preserved rather than stretched.

Pick one of the social and web presets for a one-click retarget, or type a custom width and height. Undo restores the previous format.

Current size note

#

A read-only line showing the present dimensions and a reminder that layers scale uniformly with no distortion.

Collage & Photo Grid Free 8 items #

Arranges a handful of media-library photos into a collage and inserts it as an editable layer group.

The Collage & Photo Grid tool

Tools, Collage & Photo Grid opens a dialog with a live preview: pick images from your library, choose a layout and tune the look with a few sliders. Five layouts ship: a clean grid, a justified mosaic that keeps each photo close to its own aspect ratio, scattered polaroids with tilt and captions, a filmstrip with sprocket holes, and a contact sheet that labels every photo with its cleaned-up file name.

Inserting builds real layers: every photo is a normal image layer with a cover crop, cards and strips are shape layers, captions are text layers, all collected in one group. You can swap single pictures, nudge frames, restyle captions and apply layer styles afterwards.

Layouts

#

Grid, Mosaic, Polaroid, Filmstrip and Contact sheet. Mosaic justifies rows to the full width; Polaroid scatters tilted instant-photo cards; Contact sheet adds a file-name caption under every cell.

Spacing

#

The gap between photos and to the canvas edge, in pixels.

Corner radius

#

Rounds the photo corners. Polaroid photos stay square, the instant-photo look owns its corners.

Frame and Frame color

#

A matte card behind each photo, in any color. Polaroid always has its white card; the color swatch recolors it.

Columns

#

Fixes the column count for grid, contact sheet and polaroid layouts; 0 picks a count that keeps cells roughly square.

Shuffle

#

Deals a new seeded arrangement: the image order is reshuffled in every layout, and the polaroid scatter also re-rolls its tilt and offsets. The same document and settings always reproduce the same collage.

Captions from file names

#

For polaroid and contact sheet: labels every photo with its file name, extension stripped and dashes and underscores turned into spaces.

Insert collage

#

Builds the layers and selects the new group. Nothing is flattened; every part stays editable.

360° Panorama Free 7 items #

Walk through any equirectangular image, repair the AI wrap seam, place linked hotspots and copy a fully self-contained HTML embed.

The 360° Panorama tool

Tools, 360° Panorama opens a WebGL sphere viewer for equirectangular (2:1) images: drag to look around with a little inertia, scroll to change the field of view. The source can be any image layer of the document or a picture straight from the media library; a warning appears when the image is not close to 2:1.

The embed it copies is one self-contained HTML block: inline viewer, inline styles, hotspots included, the image URL as its only outside reference. It works in any Custom HTML block, with or without WunderPaint on the page, and keeps working if the plugin is ever removed.

Create with AI

#

Panorama creation lives right in the tool: describe a scene and generate a fresh 360° sphere, or click Turn source into 360° to rebuild the current source photo as a full panorama of the same place, light and mood. The result lands as a layer and opens in the viewer.

Source

#

Every image layer of the document appears in the picker; From library opens the media picker for any other panorama. Layers close to 2:1 are preselected.

Fix seam

#

AI panoramas typically drift in color across the width, so the left and right edges no longer match at the wrap. Per row the difference is measured and blended so the edges meet, plus a narrow blur band over the residual line. Apply to layer writes the repaired image back (undo restores it).

Add hotspot

#

Click in the view to place a marker: a text pill or an icon (pin, info, arrow, play) whose label appears on hover. Every hotspot has its own color and size, an optional URL, an optional info text that opens as a small card in the view, and Move re-places it with another click. All of it carries into the embed.

Copy embed HTML

#

Puts the self-contained viewer snippet on the clipboard, using the current view direction as the start view. The embed opens as a light blurred poster with a 360° badge and boots WebGL only when it scrolls into view or is clicked, so pages with several panoramas stay fast. Start with auto-rotate makes it turn slowly on its own; Embed height sets the block's CSS height.

360° generate format

#

In the AI panel's Format row, the 360° chip generates a seamless equirectangular sphere (prompt wrapper plus exact 2:1 resample) and inserts it as a layer, ready for this tool.

Viewer controls

#

Bottom right in both viewers: auto-rotate (slow turntable that pauses while you interact and resumes after a moment), a compass needle that shows the view direction and flies back to the start view when clicked, and fullscreen. Zoom by scroll, pinch or double-tap; camera moves are eased. On phones the embed adds a gyro button - move the device to look around.

Blur Faces FreeLocal AI 3 items #

Find every face on the active layer and pixelate it beyond recognition, in your browser, with no key.

Blur Faces runs on the local Florence-2 model. The model is asked to ground the phrase "human face" in the image, each box it returns is padded a little, and those regions are pixelated straight into the layer. The picture never leaves your site.

The result replaces the content of the active layer as a single undo step, so one Undo takes it back if a false positive lands somewhere you did not want it.

Blur Faces

#

Runs the detection and pixelates every face it finds on the active layer. A toast reports how many faces were made unrecognizable.

Needs the local caption model

#

Blur Faces uses the Florence-2 caption model for detection. Until it is installed under Settings, Local AI Models, the action says so instead of running.

No faces found on the active layer

#

The model grounded nothing for "human face". The layer is left untouched. Check that an image layer is active rather than a text or shape layer.

Shared studio dialog buttons Free 3 items #

The common buttons that every studio and generator dialog shares.

These controls behave the same across the QR, Chart, Color Schemer, Background Studio, Beautifier, Mockup, Contrast, Split and Depth Blur dialogs.

Cancel

#

Closes the dialog and discards its settings without changing your design.

Close

#

The X button in the top-right corner. Same effect as Cancel or pressing Escape.

ShortcutEscape

Update (vs Insert)

#

When you reopen a studio through Edit … in a layer's context menu, the primary button reads Update instead of Insert and rebuilds the existing layer or group in place rather than adding a new one.

Recrop thumbnails Free 4 items #

Per-image, per-size control over the crop window of WordPress' hard-crop sizes, with a local subject-aware auto-suggest.

WordPress crops sizes like the thumbnail dead center, which happily beheads portraits in theme grids. In the Media Library Manager, open an image's detail editor and choose Recrop thumbnails: every cropped size this image has appears on the left, and the crop window sits on the full image, ratio-locked, ready to drag and resize.

Saving rewrites only the generated size files and updates their metadata. File names never change, so published pages simply show the better crop, and the original upload is never touched. Browsers cache thumbnails, so a published page may show the old crop until its cache expires.

Size list

#

Every registered hard-crop size this attachment actually has, with its current file as preview. Soft sizes only scale, so they never appear here.

Crop window

#

Drag to move, pull the corner handle to resize; the ratio is locked to the selected size, and the window never leaves the image.

Auto-frame subject

#

Detects the subject with the local model (no key, nothing leaves your browser) and places the window around it with a little padding. Auto for all sizes does the same for every size at once.

Save crops

#

Rewrites the changed size files in place and remembers each window, so reopening the dialog shows the crop you chose.

The left half shows a live preview of your document with the overlay on top, the right half holds a preset row, a Blend row and one collapsible card per effect: Vignette, Light leaks, Film grain, Dust, Scratches, Frame and Date stamp. Every card has a checkbox in its header: unchecked, the effect is off and its sliders stay hidden. The overlay always renders at the full document size and is scaled into the preview, so grain and dust look exactly like the final pixels.

What you insert is a generator layer, not a flat pasted image. The layer keeps its settings under the id wpie-core/vignette, so Edit in the layer's context menu reopens this studio with every slider where you left it. Because all values are stored as relative percentages, the layer also re-renders itself at the target size whenever the document changes shape: dynamic templates, Magic Resize and format automation call the generator's resolve hook and repaint the overlay to the new box instead of stretching it.

If a plain radial gradient layer is selected when you open the studio (the way the starter templates ship their vignettes), the studio reads that gradient's look into its sliders and the primary button changes to Replace layer, converting the gradient into a studio layer at the same stack position.

Presets

#

A row of pills at the top of the control column. Clicking one replaces all settings at once with a curated look (and its suggested blend mode). Six pills show by default.

Count12

Show all 12 presets

#

Expands the preset row from the first six pills to all twelve, and reads Show fewer presets once open.

Subtle

Preset: a very soft vignette behind a dark matte with rounded corners.

UsesVignette, Frame (Rounded matte)

Dusty Print

#

Preset: an Edges vignette with dense light dust and a few scratches, like a dusty scan.

UsesVignette (Edges), Dust, Scratches

Blend

#

Picks the blend mode the finished overlay layer uses against the artwork below. Normal simply lays the overlay on top; Multiply deepens a dark vignette into the image. The preview honours your choice live.

DefaultNormal

Opacity (Blend row)

#

The slider next to the Blend dropdown. Sets the layer's opacity, so you can dial a whole look back without touching its sliders.

Range10 to 100

Compare

#

Hold this button under the preview to hide the overlay and see the untouched document. Releasing brings the effect back.

Vignette

#

The header checkbox of the Vignette card. On by default, it paints the darkening (or lightening) falloff. Off, the whole card and its sliders disappear.

DefaultOn

Shape

#

The dropdown that decides where the vignette falls off. Ten shapes are available, from a classic oval to single edges, letterbox bars and pillars.

DefaultOvalOptions10

Oval

#

Shape: a radial falloff around an adjustable center. Its radius comes from the image diagonal, so the look survives any format. Unlocks Feather, Center X and Center Y, and lets you drag the center in the preview.

Option ofShape

Circle

#

Shape: like Oval, but the radius keys to the short side instead of the diagonal, giving a true round spotlight whatever the format. Also unlocks Feather and the Center sliders.

Option ofShape

Edges

#

Shape: four straight ramps from the top, bottom, left and right edges inwards. The corners overlap and darken naturally, so the frame stays rectangular instead of round.

Option ofShape

Corners

#

Shape: only the four corners fall off, the way an old lens loses light, while the edges stay clear.

Option ofShape

Top

#

Shape: a single ramp shading down from the top edge. Good for headline text that needs contrast.

Option ofShape

Bottom

#

Shape: a single ramp shading up from the bottom edge, the classic bed for a caption.

Option ofShape

Left

#

Shape: a single ramp shading in from the left edge.

Option ofShape

Right

#

Shape: a single ramp shading in from the right edge.

Option ofShape

Letterbox

#

Shape: two ramps, one from the top and one from the bottom, for a cinematic band top and bottom. Their reach is a little shorter than a single edge ramp at the same Size.

Option ofShape

Pillars

#

Shape: the same idea turned sideways, one ramp from the left and one from the right edge.

Option ofShape

Color (Vignette)

#

The swatch next to the Shape dropdown. The vignette does not have to be black: a dark brown ages a photo, a bright color can lift the edges instead of sinking them.

Default#000000

Strength (Vignette)

#

How opaque the vignette gets at its darkest point. 0 makes it invisible, 100 paints the color at full opacity at the edges.

Range0 to 100Default55

Size (Vignette)

#

How far the falloff reaches. On the oval and circle shapes a larger value pushes the dark ring outwards and leaves more of the image clear; on the edge, letterbox and pillar shapes it sets how deep the ramp travels from the edge.

Range0 to 100Default60

Feather

#

How soft the transition is between the clear center and the shaded edge. Low values give a hard ring, high values a long gentle fade. Shown for the Oval and Circle shapes only.

Range0 to 100Default60Shown forOval, Circle

Center X

#

Moves the bright center of the vignette horizontally, in percent of the image width. 50 is the middle. Shown for the Oval and Circle shapes only.

Range0 to 100Default50

Center Y

#

Moves the bright center vertically, in percent of the image height. Use it to put the clear spot on a face that sits off-center. Shown for the Oval and Circle shapes only.

Range0 to 100Default50

Drag in the preview

#

With the Oval or Circle shape active, the pointer turns into a crosshair over the preview and dragging sets Center X and Center Y directly. A hint under the preview says so.

Tip. Only available for Oval and Circle, the other shapes have no movable center.

Light leaks

#

Card checkbox. Paints one to three soft colored glows anchored on an edge, biased to the top half like leaks in a real camera back. Overlapping leaks add up like light does.

DefaultOff

Color (Light leaks)

#

The base color of the leaks. Each blob drifts a little around this hue, so several leaks never look identical.

Default#ff9a3c

Strength (Light leaks)

#

How bright the leaks burn into the image.

Range0 to 100Default55

Size (Light leaks)

#

How far a leak reaches into the frame, from a small edge flare to a glow across half the image.

Range0 to 100Default55

Count (Light leaks)

#

How many leaks are painted.

Range1 to 3Default2

Variant (Light leaks)

#

Reshuffles the leaks: their edge, angle, stretch and hue drift all follow this number. Same number, same leaks, every time the layer re-renders.

Range1 to 99Default3

Film grain

#

Card checkbox. Sprinkles bright and dark speckles across the frame. It is sparse by design, only the outliers become visible grains rather than a full mosaic.

DefaultOff

Amount

#

How strongly the grain shows. Higher values make the speckles more opaque, not more numerous.

Range0 to 100Default30

Grain size

#

The pixel size of one grain. 1 gives a fine digital noise, 6 a coarse pushed-film texture. The grain is drawn without smoothing, so the cells stay crisp.

Range1 to 6Default2

Variant (Film grain)

#

Redraws the whole grain pattern with a different random seed. Nothing else changes.

Range1 to 99Default7

Dust

#

Card checkbox. Scatters specks and the occasional curled fiber over the image, the way dust sits on a scanner or a negative.

DefaultOff

Density

#

How many specks are placed. The count scales with the document area, so a large canvas gets the same dust per square inch as a small one.

Range0 to 100Default30

Size (Dust)

#

Scales every speck and fiber. Small values give sharp pinpricks, large values chunky lint.

Range0 to 100Default30

Tone (Dust)

#

Chooses whether the dust is painted white or black. Light reads as dust on a dark scan, Dark as dirt on a light print.

OptionsLight, DarkDefaultLight

Variant (Dust)

#

Reshuffles where the specks and fibers land.

Range1 to 99Default11

Scratches

#

Card checkbox. Draws thin vertical lines that wander slightly as they run down the frame, like the scratches a projector leaves on film.

DefaultOff

Count (Scratches)

#

How many scratches are drawn. Each one gets its own position, length and drift.

Range1 to 40Default8

Strength (Scratches)

#

How visible the lines are. It scales their opacity, so low values leave them as a barely there hint.

Range0 to 100Default40

Tone (Scratches)

#

Paints the scratches white or black. Light suits dark footage, Dark suits a bright print.

OptionsLight, DarkDefaultLight

Variant (Scratches)

#

Redraws the set of scratches with different positions and wobble.

Range1 to 99Default5

Frame

#

Card checkbox. Paints a border on top of everything else in the overlay, so grain and dust stay behind it.

DefaultOff

Style

#

The frame dropdown. Ten styles, from a plain border to instant photo, filmstrip and photo corners.

DefaultInstant photoOptions10

Instant photo

#

Frame style: an even border on three sides with a much heavier chin at the bottom, the classic instant film look.

Option ofStyle

Solid border

#

Frame style: an even band of the frame color on all four sides.

Option ofStyle

Thin line

#

Frame style: a single hairline keyline, inset from the edge by the Size slider.

Option ofStyle

Double line

#

Frame style: two concentric keylines, a heavier outer and a finer inner one, for an editorial look.

Option ofStyle

Filmstrip

#

Frame style: bars across the top and bottom with perforation holes punched through them, so the image shows in the holes.

Option ofStyle

Slide mount

#

Frame style: a thick 35mm slide mount with a rounded window cut into it.

Option ofStyle

Rounded matte

#

Frame style: a matte that fills everything outside a rounded window. This is the only style that reveals the Radius slider.

Option ofStyleRevealsRadius

Painted edge

#

Frame style: four bands whose inner side wobbles like a loaded brush, for a hand-painted border. Reveals the Variant slider.

Option ofStyleRevealsVariant

Corner tape

#

Frame style: four semi-transparent tape strips lying across the corners at an angle, like a photo taped into an album. Reveals the Variant slider.

Option ofStyleRevealsVariant

Photo corners

#

Frame style: a triangular mounting pocket in each corner, the classic photo album corners.

Option ofStyle

Color (Frame)

#

The color of the border, bars, tape or corners. White by default, but a near-black reads as a filmstrip or a dark matte.

Default#ffffff

Size (Frame)

#

How thick the frame is, measured against the short side of the image, so it scales with the document. Each style interprets it in its own proportion (the slide mount and filmstrip run visibly wider than a solid border at the same value).

Range1 to 20Default5

Radius

#

How round the window corners are. Shown for the Rounded matte style only.

Range1 to 30Default6Shown forRounded matte

Variant (Frame)

#

Reshuffles the random part of the frame: the brush wobble of Painted edge, the tilt of the tape strips. Shown for the Painted edge and Corner tape styles only.

Range1 to 99Default5Shown forPainted edge, Corner tape

Date stamp

#

Card checkbox. Burns in a glowing seven-segment date, the way a point and shoot camera did. Ticking it fills the text with today's date in the classic format (for example '26 07 16) if the field is still empty. It is drawn as strokes, not as a font, so it renders identically everywhere.

DefaultOff

Text

#

What the stamp reads. Digits get real seven-segment shapes; a space, an apostrophe and a period have their own forms, and any other character is drawn as a dash.

Max length14 characters

Color (Date stamp)

#

The color of the stamp. It is also used for the glow around the digits.

Default#ff9d2e

Size (Date stamp)

#

The height of the digits, in percent of the image's short side, so the stamp keeps its proportion at any document size.

Range2 to 10Default4

Corner

#

Which corner the stamp sits in, with a margin that scales with the image.

OptionsBottom right, Bottom left, Top right, Top leftDefaultBottom right

Add as layer

#

The primary button in the normal case. Renders the overlay at full document size and adds it as a new layer named Vignette & Film on top of your stack, carrying the Blend mode and Opacity you chose.

Replace layer

#

The primary button reads this instead when the studio opened with a plain radial gradient vignette selected (as the starter templates ship them). It removes that gradient and drops the studio layer in at the same stack position and inside the same group, keeping the old layer's name.

Update layer

#

The primary button reads this when you reopened the studio through Edit on an existing Vignette & Film layer. It repaints the same layer in place instead of adding a second one.

Cancel

#

Closes the studio and throws away the settings. The X in the header and the Escape key do the same.

Edit (reopening the layer)

#

The layer is a generator layer, so Edit in its context menu brings this studio back with every card, slider and color exactly as you left them. Nothing is baked in permanently.

Tip. The same lifecycle also lets Actions replay the studio and lets dynamic templates and Magic Resize repaint the overlay at the new document size, because all values are stored as percentages rather than pixels.

QR Code Free 28 items #

Build a scannable QR code for links, Wi-Fi, contacts and more, styled to match your brand and inserted as an editable image layer.

The qR Code

The QR Code dialog turns a piece of content (a link, some text, an email, a phone number, an SMS, Wi-Fi login details or a contact card) into a QR code image. A live preview on the right updates as you type and shows warnings if a choice might hurt scannability.

The code lands as an ordinary image layer. All settings are stored on that layer, so you can reopen the dialog later with Edit QR Code from the context menu and change anything without starting over. Every content field also accepts dynamic variables like {{post.url}} that resolve per post when the design runs as a template.

Content

#

Chooses what the QR code encodes. Picking a type swaps the input fields below to match (for example a Wi-Fi network shows SSID and password fields).

OptionsLink (URL), Text, Email, Phone call, SMS, Wi-Fi access, Contact (vCard)DefaultLink (URL)

Link (URL)

#

The web address the code opens when scanned. Shown when Content is set to Link (URL).

Placeholderhttps://wp-image-editor.com

Tip. Use the variable button to insert {{post.url}} so the code points at each post.

Text

#

Plain text to encode when Content is set to Text. Scanners simply show this text, they do not open a link.

InputMulti-line text area

Email address

#

The recipient address for an Email code. Scanning it opens a new message to this address.

Placeholderhello@example.com

Subject (optional)

#

Pre-fills the subject line of the email that opens when the code is scanned. Leave empty for none.

Message (optional)

#

Pre-fills the body of the email (or the SMS text) that opens when the code is scanned. Optional.

Phone number

#

The number to call (Phone call code) or text (SMS code) when the code is scanned.

Placeholder+49 151 1234567

Network name (SSID)

#

The Wi-Fi network name for a Wi-Fi access code. Scanning it lets a phone join the network without typing.

Password

#

The Wi-Fi password stored in the code. Leave blank if the network is open.

Security

#

The Wi-Fi encryption type so the phone connects correctly.

OptionsWPA/WPA2/WPA3, WEP, Open (no password)DefaultWPA/WPA2/WPA3

Hidden network

#

Tick this when the network does not broadcast its name, so the phone still finds it from the code.

DefaultOff

First name / Last name

#

The contact's name for a Contact (vCard) code. Scanning it offers to save a new contact.

Company (optional)

#

The organisation stored on the vCard contact. Optional.

Website (optional)

#

A website address saved with the vCard contact. Optional (the vCard also has its own phone and email fields).

Insert variable

#

The small button next to each content field inserts a dynamic token such as {{post.title}}. The token resolves per post when the design runs as a dynamic template; the preview keeps the placeholder text.

Tip. A hint appears once a field contains a variable, reminding you the preview stays as placeholder text.

Brand Kit

#

Applies a saved Brand Kit to the code: the darkest kit color becomes the code color, a second dark color becomes the eye accent, and the kit logo (if any) is offered as the center logo. Only shown when Brand Kits exist.

DefaultNo Brand Kit

Code color

#

The color of the code's dark modules (the pattern itself). Keep it clearly darker than the background so cameras can read it.

Default#000000

Background

#

The color behind the code. Greyed out when Transparent background is on.

Default#ffffff

Transparent background

#

Drops the background fill so the code sits directly on whatever is beneath it. Make sure that surface stays light enough to scan.

DefaultOff

Module style

#

The shape of the small squares (modules) that make up the code. Rounded and Dots look softer; Square is the most reliable to scan.

OptionsSquare, Rounded, DotsDefaultSquare

Eye style

#

The shape of the three large corner markers (the 'eyes') that scanners use to orient the code.

OptionsSquare, RoundedDefaultSquare

Eye color

#

An optional separate color for the three corner eyes. Use the Match code color button to clear it and fall back to the code color.

DefaultMatches code color

Logo size

#

How much of the code the center logo covers. Larger logos look bolder but risk scannability, so the range is deliberately narrow.

Range12% to 30%Default20%

Error correction

#

How much of the code can be damaged or covered and still read. Higher levels are more robust but make the pattern denser. Locked to H whenever a center logo is used.

OptionsL (7%), M (15%), Q (25%), H (30%)DefaultM (15%)

Quiet zone

#

The blank margin around the code. Some scanners need this clear border, so keep at least Standard when placing the code on a busy background.

OptionsNone (0), Narrow (1), Standard (2), Wide (4)DefaultStandard

Preview and warnings

#

Shows the live code on a checkerboard (so transparency is visible) and lists scannability warnings, for example if the content is too long or colors are too close. Fill in the content to see it.

Tip. Always test the finished code with a phone camera before publishing.

Insert QR code

#

Renders the code at high resolution and adds it as an image layer centered in the document (about 30% of the shorter side). When editing an existing code the button reads Update QR code.

Disabled whenContent is incomplete or too long

Chart & Table Studio Free 21 items #

A three-zone studio that turns data into one of 35 chart and table types, inserted as a group of fully editable vector and text layers.

The chart & Table Studio

The left rail is a type gallery with rendered previews: 24 chart types and 11 table types. The center shows a live preview above a spreadsheet-style data grid, and the right rail holds design, color, series, options and text cards.

Everything the studio builds stays real layers, and the full data and settings are stored on the group: Edit in the context menu reopens the studio with everything intact. Cells and titles accept {{variable}} tokens, and a table imported from WordPress refreshes itself inside dynamic templates on export, batch runs and Preview with Post.

Type gallery

#

Rendered preview cards for every type, split into Charts and Tables. Switching the type swaps the sample data unless you have entered your own.

ChartsBars, Bars (horizontal), Stacked bars, Line, Area, Pie, Donut, Radar, Progress rings, Scatter, Waterfall, Funnel, Gauge, KPI tile, Combo, Lollipop, Heatmap, Bullet, Histogram, Pictogram, Dumbbell, Slope, Bump ranking, TreemapTablesData table, Comparison table, Pricing table, Ranking, Schedule, Checklist, Menu / price list, Spec sheet, Scorecard, Calendar month, Standings

Data grid

#

A spreadsheet-style editor: the first row is the header, cells are edited in place and may hold several lines. Pasting from Excel or Google Sheets works, tabs are understood.

Column widths (drag)

#

Drag the grip between two header cells to give a column more or less room in the finished table; double-click a grip to return it to automatic. The set widths travel with the design.

Add / remove rows and columns

#

Toolbar buttons extend or trim the grid; rows and columns can also be reordered.

Variables in cells

#

The { } button inserts a {{variable}} token at the focused cell: post fields, brand-kit values, site and date sources. Tokens resolve when the design is exported, batch-processed or previewed with a post.

Import (CSV file)

#

Reads a .csv, .tsv or .txt file into the grid. With your own data already present the import asks before replacing it.

Import from WordPress

#

Builds the table from your content: pick a post type, the fields as columns, plus filters (search, category or any taxonomy, author, date range, custom field with compare, offset) and sorting. The field list is reorderable.

Tip. The saved query stays on the group, so the table can refresh later.

Refresh

#

Re-runs the saved WordPress query and replaces the rows. Inside dynamic templates this happens automatically on export, batch runs and Preview with Post; when a refresh fails the previous rows are kept.

Design cards

#

Ready-made looks rendered with the current type, plus random variations. A click applies the design; with a locked palette (brand colors on, or a picked kit or swatch set) a design changes geometry and typography only and never your colors.

Shuffle designs

#

Regenerates the random design tiles for a fresh set of looks.

Use brand colors

#

Locks the palette to your brand kit: the document's active kit first, then the site kit. While it is on, designs and shuffle never override the colors.

Colors / swatches

#

The working palette as editable swatches; + and − change the palette size (2 to 8 colors).

Colors from…

#

Fills the palette from a saved Brand Kit or Swatch set. The picked source is remembered on the chart and locks the palette, so designs and shuffle keep your colors; editing a swatch by hand releases the lock.

Random colors

#

Rolls a fresh harmonic scheme from the editor's color engine.

Series

#

One row per data series with its name and an optional fixed color that overrides the palette for that series.

Font

#

The editor's full font selector (brand, custom, system, editor and Google fonts, each previewed in its own face); the family applies to every text in the chart or table.

Title / Subtitle

#

Optional heading lines above the chart or table. Both accept {{variable}} tokens via the { } button.

Chart options

#

Type-dependent styling: card background, corner rounding, bar gap, grid lines, axes, outline, gradient fills, label and value weights, smooth curves, and number formatting (thousands separator, decimals).

Table geometry

#

Sliders for the table body: text wrapping with a maximum line count per cell, row height, cell padding, outer padding and header size. Long cells wrap instead of clipping.

Tiers (Pricing table)

#

The pricing editor: name, price, period, feature list and call-to-action per tier, with one tier markable as Featured.

Insert / Update

#

Inserts the chart or table as an editable group; when editing an existing one the group is rebuilt in place with the stored size.

Color Schemer Free 15 items #

Build a five-color scheme with color theory, from an image, or by chance, then save it site-wide and optionally push it into a Brand Kit.

The color Schemer

The Color Schemer has five swatch slots driven by classic color-theory harmonies. Pick a base color and a harmony, then nudge spread, saturation and lightness to fine-tune. You can lock individual slots so they survive randomizing and slider changes.

Colors can also be extracted from the current document or any media-library image. A live design preview shows how the scheme feels as background, card, text and buttons. Saved schemes become Swatch sets that appear in every color picker and in backups.

Swatch slot

#

One of five color slots that make up the scheme. Each shows its hex value; click a slot to open a color picker and edit it. A manual edit automatically locks that slot.

Count5 slots

Lock / Unlock slot

#

The small padlock on each slot keeps that color fixed while you randomize or move the sliders. Unlock it to let the harmony rebuild that slot again.

Harmony

#

The color-theory relationship used to derive the scheme from the base color. Each harmony spaces the hues differently around the color wheel.

OptionsAnalogous, Complementary, Split complementary, Triadic, Tetradic, Monochromatic, Shades & tintsDefaultAnalogous

Swatch set name

#

Names the scheme before saving. Leave blank to get an auto name like Palette 3.

Add / Update swatch set

#

Saves the five colors as a named Swatch set stored site-wide, so it shows up in every color picker and in backups. Saving with an existing name updates that set in place.

Tip. The button label flips to Update swatch set when the name matches an existing set.

Apply to Brand Kit

Free#

Overwrites the colors of the chosen Brand Kit with this scheme. Asks for confirmation first. Only shown if you can manage kits and at least one kit exists.

Saved swatch sets (Load / Delete)

#

Lists your saved sets with color previews. Load pulls a set back into the slots to keep editing; Delete removes it (with a confirm step).

Background Studio Free 19 items #

Generate a full-document background from four generative styles with sliders and a seed, all rendered locally with no cloud involved.

The background Studio

Background Studio makes deterministic, seed-based backgrounds in four styles: mesh gradient, organic, geometric and low-poly. Feed the color strip from a Brand Kit, a saved Swatch set, the current document, or chance, and shape the look with per-style sliders plus a grain overlay.

The result is inserted as a full-size raster layer at the bottom of the stack. All settings live on that layer, so Edit Background reopens the studio exactly as you left it. Tileable looks can also be saved as a seamless pattern.

Style

Screenshot Beautifier Free 17 items #

Wrap a screenshot in a rounded card with shadow, optional browser, window or phone chrome, and a generated backdrop, all as editable layers in a new tab.

The screenshot Beautifier

The Screenshot Beautifier frames the selected image layer or the whole flattened document in a rounded card with a shadow, adds optional device chrome or a decorative frame, grows the canvas with padding and aspect presets, and drops a backdrop behind it.

Everything opens as a fresh document in its own tab, grouped as editable layers, so your current work stays untouched. The backdrop keeps its Background Studio parameters, so Edit Background still works on it later.

Mockup Generator Free 11 items #

Place your artwork or the whole document onto a studio product mockup (ebook, box, DVD, CD, report or monitor), rendered locally as a transparent-background image layer.

The mockup Generator

The Mockup Generator wraps the selected layer or the flattened document around a small 3D product shape, lit and shaded in the browser with no cloud involved. Six product types are available and the shape adapts to your artwork's aspect ratio.

The baked result is a normal image layer with a transparent background, so it drops onto any design. Parameters and the artwork are stored on the layer, so Edit Mockup reopens this dialog and re-renders in place.

Contrast Check Free 4 items #

Rate every visible text layer against the pixels actually behind it and flag any that fall below the WCAG contrast recommendation.

The contrast Check

The Contrast Check dialog scans all visible text layers, measures each one's color against whatever lies underneath it in the design, and reports a WCAG contrast ratio. It runs automatically when opened.

A summary tells you how many layers fall short, and each result row can be clicked to jump straight to that text layer so you can fix it.

Checking text layers

#

The automatic scan that runs when the dialog opens. It composites what is beneath each text layer and computes the real contrast ratio. Shows a spinner while working.

StandardWCAG contrast

Summary line

#

A one-line verdict: either how many text layers fall below the WCAG contrast recommendation, or that all layers meet it. Reads 'No visible text layers to check' when there is no text.

Contrast result row

#

One row per text layer showing its text-color swatch, the layer name, and the measured contrast ratio. Click a row to select that layer and close the dialog so you can adjust it.

Ratio and pass / fail

#

The measured contrast shown as a ratio (for example 4.7:1). A passing layer shows a check mark; a failing one shows the ratio it still needs to reach, for example '(needs 4.5:1)'.

Formatratio:1, with ✓ or (needs X:1)

Depth Blur (background) FreeLocal AI 5 items #

Estimate a depth map for the active layer and add a graduated depth-of-field blur that keeps the focus sharp while melting the background away.

Depth Blur estimates how far each part of the image is from the camera, then blurs by distance so the subject stays crisp and the background softens like a wide-aperture lens. The depth estimation runs locally with a self-hosted Depth Anything model.

A live preview updates as you move the Focus depth and Strength sliders. Apply bakes the blur into the layer. If the depth model is not installed yet, the dialog links to Settings to download it.

Focus depth

#

Chooses which depth stays sharp: lower keeps near objects in focus, higher keeps far ones sharp. It starts at an automatically detected focus point.

Range0 to 100DefaultAuto-detected focus point

Strength

#

How strong the background blur gets. Higher values give a more dramatic, shallow-depth-of-field look.

Range1 to 8Step0.5Default3.5

#

In the sections that show your own saved items (My Assets, Shapes, Backgrounds, Text), hold Alt and click a tile to delete that saved item.

Tip. Only affects items you saved, never the built-in library.

Category cards (Starter Templates)

#

With the tray search empty, the Starter Templates strip shows one card per template category instead of hundreds of tiles. Each card is previewed with the first template of that category and its tooltip names the category and how many templates it holds. Categories with no templates are skipped, and categories added by installed template packs get a card too.

Media Library Tools Free 12 items #

The tools menu and its sub-dialogs for tidying the library: suggest folders, find duplicates, regenerate thumbnails, rename by pattern, find broken and generate metadata.

Clean up the library

#

Opens the cleanup panel: images nothing references, files with no library entry, and originals larger than the site delivers. Deleting moves things to a holding area with a retention period rather than removing them, and re-checks before anything is finally gone. Read the Clean up the library section before using it in bulk.

Where an image is used Free 6 items #

The Usage tab in an image's detail view: every place on the site that references this file, with a link to each one.

Open an image in the Media Library Manager (the Edit metadata button on a tile) and the left column has three tabs: Details, Usage and Origin. Usage answers the question that stops most people from ever tidying their library: is anything still pointing at this?

The answer is worked out live every time you open it, not read from a stored result, because the honest answer changes the moment somebody edits a page. It is also the same check that runs again at the moment you move an image to the holding area, so a stale list can never cause a deletion.

Post content

#

Images inserted into any post, page or custom post type. Reads block markup including blocks that carry no wp-image class (cover, media-text, gallery, site logo), gallery shortcodes, plain URLs in src and srcset, and background images in inline CSS. A resized copy in the markup resolves back to its original.

CountsPublished, draft, scheduled, private, trashedDoes not countPost revisions

Custom fields and builder data

#

Featured images, Elementor layouts, ACF fields including repeaters and flexible content, WooCommerce product galleries, and SEO social images. Page builders store their layouts as JSON with escaped slashes; that is read properly rather than skipped.

Does not countGenerated caches such as _elementor_css

Site settings and widgets

#

The site icon, the custom logo, header and background images from your theme settings, and any media widget. Transients are skipped, because a reference that exists only in a cache is not a reason to keep a file.

Categories and user profiles

#

Category and product-category images from term meta, including WooCommerce category thumbnails, plus local avatars in user meta.

Saved designs and templates

#

WunderPaint's own data: saved designs, templates, the asset library and brand kits. Without this a design you saved months ago could be broken by deleting an image that looked unused, and you would only find out on opening it.

What it cannot see

Filter#

A plugin that keeps image IDs in a table of its own, or a filename hard-coded into a theme template. The panel says so in plain words when it finds nothing, rather than implying the file is definitely safe. Developers can register additional sources with the wpie_media_usage_sources filter.

Filterwpie_media_usage_sources

Clean up the library Free 8 items #

Finds images nothing points at, files no library entry claims, and originals larger than your site delivers. Nothing is deleted on the day you ask for it.

Opened from Media Library Tools. Read this before using it in bulk: the panel removes files, and while it is built to be careful, no automatic check can know everything about a site it did not build.

The scan works through your content in slices and can be stopped at any point. Its result is sorted into four groups, and only one of them can be cleaned up. Deleting moves images to the WordPress trash with their files left in place, so addresses on your site keep resolving; a scheduled job re-checks each entry when its retention period is up and restores anything that turned out to be in use.

Take a backup before your first bulk cleanup. Not because the tool expects to be wrong, but because that is the right habit for anything that removes files in bulk.

In use

#

At least one exact reference was found, by attachment ID or by address. Never offered for cleanup.

Unused

#

No reference found anywhere, AND the last scan completed cleanly across every source, AND the image is older than the grace period. The only group that can be cleaned up.

RequiresA complete, error-free scan

Uploaded recently

Filter#

Younger than the grace period of 14 days. Held back deliberately: an image uploaded on Tuesday has probably just not been placed yet. On a site built last month this is most of the library, which is normal and not a fault.

Default14 daysFilterwpie_media_usage_grace_days

Not checked

#

Never scanned, uploaded after the last scan, or a source failed to read. If any source errored the run offers nothing for cleanup at all, because a failed query looks exactly like a source with no references in it.

Move to the holding area

#

Re-checks every selected image live, then moves the ones still unreferenced to the WordPress trash. The file stays on disk, so the site keeps working even if a verdict was wrong. Anything the re-check finds in use is kept and reported back to you.

Waiting to be deleted

Filter#

Everything currently held, with the date it went in and when its period ends. Put anything back with one click. When the period is over a daily job checks each entry once more; still unreferenced means it is finally removed, back in use means it restores itself.

Default30 daysFilterwpie_quarantine_days

Orphaned files

Filter#

Files sitting in the uploads folder that no library entry points at, usually left behind by imports or removed plugins. The mirror image of Find broken files. Shows a preview and the size of each. WunderPaint's own folders and known plugin cache and backup directories are always skipped.

Always skippedAny uploads folder starting with wpie-Filterwpie_media_orphan_skip_dirs

Oversized originals

Pro for the resize#

Originals stored considerably wider than the largest size your site actually generates, so those extra pixels never reach a visitor. Each row says whether the full size file is linked directly somewhere, which is the one good reason to keep every pixel. Hands the selection to the Image Processor with the target width already set.

Threshold1.2x the widest registered sizeFilterswpie_oversize_served_width, wpie_oversize_factor

Replace an image Free 5 items #

Swaps the file behind a library entry so every reference keeps working, with a ratio-locked crop when the new file is a different shape.

The Replace image button sits under the preview in an image's detail view. The library entry and its ID survive, which is what lets everything already pointing at the image keep working without being touched.

Keep the current filename

#

Every address stays valid, so nothing on the site has to change. Caches and CDNs may still serve the old picture for a while. If the new file is a different format it is converted to the original format first, because keeping only part of a filename would change the address and break every reference.

Use the new filename

#

The file gets its own name and the places the usage check found are rewritten one at a time. Deliberately not a global search and replace, which fixes the database and leaves JSON and CSS files under uploads pointing at a file that no longer exists.

Crop to the original shape

#

Offered when the new file has a different aspect ratio, with both ratios named. The mask is locked to the original proportions, can be dragged and resized from any corner, and nudged with the arrow keys. A square slot stays square.

Scale to the original size

#

Renders the result at exactly the dimensions of the image it replaces. Leave it off to keep the higher resolution; WordPress generates the smaller sizes either way.

Transparency warning

#

Converting into a format without an alpha channel fills transparency with white. The dialog says so and points at the new-filename option as the way to keep it.

Origin and licence Free 2 items #

Where an image came from, who made it, under what licence and until when, prefilled from the file's own IPTC data.

The Origin tab in an image's detail view. Agencies and shops have to answer this question years after the download folder was cleared, which is usually when the answer is gone.

Source, Creator, Licence

#

Three free-text fields per image. On upload, creator and copyright are prefilled from the file's IPTC block where stock photos and most cameras already put them, using PHP's own reader so nothing has to be installed.

Licence expires

#

A date. The detail view warns when a licence has run out, and again while it is within a month of doing so.

Warns from30 days before

What is inside the file Free 8 items #

The File data tab reads the camera, software and location a file carries, and can take the private parts back out.

The Details tab describes the image; this one describes the FILE. A photo from a phone records the camera and lens, the exposure, the software that has touched it since, and usually the exact spot it was taken at. WordPress shows none of that, and the original file stays reachable under its own address.

Everything is read with PHP's own functions, so no extra software has to be installed on the server. Coordinates are resolved against the place index that ships with the plugin, which means finding out where a photo was taken never contacts an outside service.

What the file carries

#

A line naming the blocks found in the file: camera data (EXIF), captions and rights (IPTC), XMP, text notes, and location. A file with nothing embedded says so plainly.

Location

#

Shown as a place name and a rough distance rather than a pair of numbers, worked out on your own server. The exact coordinates and the altitude are printed underneath.

Resolved bythe bundled place index, no outside service

Capture

#

When the picture was taken, the camera make and model, the lens, and the exposure values the camera recorded.

Device identity

#

Serial numbers of the camera body and lens, and the owner name some cameras write. Listed on its own because this is the group people are most surprised to find in a published file.

Software and rights

#

The software that wrote or edited the file, the artist and copyright fields, and the digital source type when one is set, which is how a file declares that AI was involved.

Remove location

#

Clears the coordinates and leaves everything else in place, so a photo keeps its camera details without saying where you live. The values are overwritten rather than merely unlinked, so they cannot be recovered from the raw file.

Remove all metadata

#

Clears every embedded block. Useful before publishing images you did not take yourself, or where the file history is nobody else's business.

What happens to the file

#

Both buttons work on the original and on every size generated from it, and neither re-saves the picture: the blocks are cut out of the file and the image data is left untouched, so quality is exactly as before. The previous files are kept as a version you can restore from the History panel.

Media Library Manager: import (smarter upload) Free 7 items #

The import panel that reviews files before adding them, with optimize and describe options and duplicate detection.

Triggered by the Upload button or by dropping image files onto the main pane. Files queue up for review; when the image search model is installed each is checked against your library for likely duplicates before import.
