Auto Upload Images

I came across this plugin via a tutorial on WP Beginner on how to import non-local images.

I was struggling with this as I needed to copy Block Editor content from one site to another. However, when you do this, the images still reference the old site.

With this plugin, you install it, and simply "update" the post. I recommend doing this from the bulk-edit screen. Just do a "Quick Edit" and update.

Like magic, all the non-local images in the post are brought over into the media library and your post is updated with the correct local links.

This is such a huge time-saver because I could not find a "native" way to do this, and it would've resulted in me having to basically download and re-upload the images.

Kudos to the plugin author. This plugin is fantastic. And for those wondering, it still works with WordPress 6.0.

This plugin is an amazing time-saver


Does one thing and does it well, great plugin


Great plugin

goood


After doing a long import of entries, it updates the images without any problem.


Still works perfect

Automatically detect external images in the post content and import images to your site then adding to the media library and replace image urls.

<p>This plugin functionality happens when you want to save a new post, it searches for external image links, and uploads them into your site, then attaches the images to the post.<br />
This plugin is so light and has been written with the least codes, So it does not decline your site speed.</p>
<p>You can set the first image as a thumbnail, while uploading.( Please turn on the related switch in settings page )</p>


Automatic Image Uploader

A useful and simple plugin

The plugin works, but version 1.3.1 has drawbacks: 
1) The unloading process breaks down when phrases like "$70/month" are found in the post text (wp_extract_urls sees this as a url, processing $urls causes an exception). 
2) Does not work correctly with urls having parameters.

The plugin is wonderful, but needs to be improved

This plugin search for images in the content of posts and upload it automatically.
