Thank you! However, that still doesn’t solve the issue. On uploading the images are still being massively compressed. For example a 1.6mb image is going to roughly 155KB. Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi @jakeward
I think image compression is a function of wordpress itself so you could try
add_filter('jpeg_quality', function($arg){return 100;});
and then the other suggestion above combined may help. This code would only affect new uploads.
Thank you! I came across this during some research also, but it didn’t seem to have an effect. The quality is still shrinking right down.
I have been trying to figure this out for quite some time. I really do not understand who, if anybody, would want to destroy every image uploaded to a website. It seems everyone would want nice images. I am running buddyboss, which is built on buddypress, and even the images uploaded to activity feed are absolutely destroyed. Changing wordpress compression quality does nothing. I makes absolutley no sense whatsoever.
BuddyBoss is a fork of BuddyPress. The respective codebases have diverged, as all forks do.
If you are using BuddyBoss – you should use their support ticket system.
