Plugins: Sideload Images

plugins to cache external images, localize remote images

Here is my research on available plugins that are able to cache external images locally, and do that automatically; so called, sideload external images or local image caching.

In the following articles, here and here a lot of old plugins have been listed.

But the only ones from that list that are still maintained are:

• Auto Upload Images
• Import External Images

By digging deeper into Wordpress.org’s plugins repository, I found more plugins that are still actively maintained:

• QQWorld Auto Save Images
• Archive Remote Images
• Auto Save Remote Images (Drafts)
• External image replace

This plugins is not for that exact purpose, but a helper when editing to import image from some external site:

• Image Gallery Import

Sideload images

This plugin localy caches images also, so steal from it: Content Cards Content Card images are now cached in Media Library.

Abandoned:

• Localize Remote Images

Reverse of that?

• EXMAGE WordPress Image Links Save storage by using external image URLs as images are shown in Media library like normal images.

• External Media without Import

Ovo je idealno kada distribuiraš pattern ili slično, pošto ustvari nema slika u library, ali kao da ima.

Kod kojim to mogu postići, jednostavno:

Upload a file from a URL to the WordPress media gallery. Supports images, PDFs, and other file types. a ima za lokalni fajl, sa diska: Upload a local file as a WordPress attachment, placing it in the Media library. Supports images, PDFs, and other file types.

Ustvari, WP ima već dosta toga ugrađeno, pogledaj samo: wp_handle_sideload(), media_handle_sideload(), download_url() i slično
