Resize Images on Upload

[sjclark]

😄 It would be great if images could be resized to a definable maximum dimensions on upload. I would suggest adding a new section to config/statamic/assets.php right underneath Image Manipulation Presets. If (for many people) resizing actions are already being run on upload, I figure its not too much more work to also set a maximum pixel dimension size here as well?

Alternatively the keep_original flag previously suggested being added to the presets could also work well?

I ended up writing a local applescript that takes all images, resizes them to maximum dimensions, runs them through imageoptim. But it fills up repo's (due to the duplication) and is obviously a bit clunky for something that's built into many CMS's (Wordpress, CraftCMS, Drupal, Webflow, Squarespace etc - aware Statamic is smaller than these).

Seems this has been an issue since v2 days, and was suggested that an Idea be posted here;

This is coming in 3.4 statamic/cms#6040 🤘

With this new implementation, a keep_original flag is not needed. If you want to keep your original unmodified image, then instead of processing uploads directly, you can select which preset manipulations(s) you wish to warm post-upload.
