Image Transformations

How to download an image by URL, save it in Eofferix, resize it, change format, quality, image set, and watermark.

Image transformations are used for fields where the source sends an image URL. Eofferix downloads the file, saves it in the user storage, and writes a link to the prepared file into the result.

Additional settings enable file saving, image mode, resize, format conversion, and several links.

Where to Find It

  • Open the settings of the result field, node, or column.
  • In Additional settings, enable Save file on the service.
  • Enable File is an image when image processing is needed.
  • In a UMI.CMS template, the block is called Transform images for UMI.CMS.

Available Settings

SettingWhat it does
Do not download the file if unchangedOn repeated runs, Eofferix can reuse an already prepared file.
Keep original image namesKeeps source filenames when they can be detected from the URL.
Keep files for missing itemsBy default, Eofferix deletes prepared files for items that disappeared from the new exchange. If this option is enabled, the files remain in storage. When the item appears again with the same link and processing settings, Eofferix reuses the old link and does not process the file again. Credits for repeated image processing are not charged in this case.
Resize large imagesLimits maximum width and height while keeping proportions.
Convert to a new formatPrepares JPG, WEBP, or PNG instead of the source format.
QualitySets JPG and WEBP quality from 0 to 100.
Several images in one fieldSplits several links stored in one value.
Apply watermarkPlaces a PNG or WEBP watermark over each saved image.

Several Images in One Field

If one value contains several links, enable Several images in one field. Enter the link separator. If it is empty, Eofferix tries to detect a semicolon, line break, vertical bar, or comma.

In Which images to export, keep all images or choose a range, for example from 1 to 3.

Watermark

Use a transparent PNG or WEBP watermark. You can choose top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right, center, or tile. Maximum watermark size is set in pixels, opacity is from 0.05 to 0.50.

Processing Cost

Downloading, saving, resizing, conversion, and watermarking are counted in costs separately. Before launch, the profile shows a cost estimate including files and images.
