When converting images after uploading the original image may not be converted

[azaozz]

This is less noticeable when the original image is larger than the "big image threshold" (and not a PNG) as the scaled image is converted.

To reproduce:

• Set image conversion, for example GIF to JPEG.
• Upload image.gif that is smaller than 2560x2560px.
• Note that image.gif is listed in the Gallery and present in the uploads directory but it's sub-sizes have been converted to JPEGs like image-150x150.jpg, etc.

Expected behavior: the original image should be converted.

Hi @azaozz, thanks for raising this ticket!

Can you also add how you're setting the image conversion, for example GIF to JPEG?

I assume that you're using something akin to this?

<?php

add_filter(
        'image_editor_output_format',
        function( $formats ) {
                $formats['image/gif'] = 'image/jpeg';

                return $formats;
        }
);

Replying to costdev:

Yes, using the image_editor_output_format filter.

Since there's still no patch here, I'm going to punt to Future Release. Feel free to move it back to a numbered milestone once a patch is worked out.
