Adds a new tab to the Add media screen, allowing you to pull images from Dropbox into WordPress.
“Sideloading” is a term given to differeniate from “uploading” or “downloading”. When you sideload an image, you’re copying it directly from Dropbox to WordPress. So if you keep your images in Dropbox, this plugin allows you to easily copy those images into WordPress.
After sideloading an image into WordPress, you’ll find it in the Media Library and available for use in Galleries, or as images in the Post, or just whatever you like. It’s just as if you uploaded them manually.
Note that sideloading many images at once may take more time than your webserver will allow. If this happens, just sideload them in smaller groups.

Dropbox Photo Sideloader

Especially now that Dropbox has added a File Requests feature, this Sideloader plugin is a lifesaver. Version 0.6 of the plugin is working just fine for me. No problem loading images with spaces in the filename - spaces were converted to hyphens once they arrived in WordPress Media Library.
Thank you :)



Got it to work - very nice

Cache Images is a plugin that gives users option to sideload images that are hosted on other domains to their own site. Sideloaded images are added to WordPress media library so you can use all tools related to images that you can use with images uploaded through WordPress. Image will be added as an attachment of first post where it is found, and every post where original URL is occurring will be updated with new URL. User can select from which domains to sideload images, including Blogger’s domains.
It uses AJAX so it means you can sideload large number of images even on slow servers. (AJAX functions are made by fork of code from plugin <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ajax-thumbnail-rebuild/" rel="ugc">AJAX Thumbnail Rebuild</a>)
This plugin is fully internationalized. You can find .pot file in languages folder where you should place your translation. Current translations are Serbian, Spanish, and Persian.
