Offload Media – Cloud Storage


This is great plugin! Works like a charm! Thanks for your effort to develop such a great plugin!



There are several options to configure medias well 2 features I like it very much:




Rewrite is great, when I enabled cdn option in the plugin and input my cdn domain, all of relevant images' url are changed automatically.



Remove files from server is great, when I delete a product, relevant images are deleted from my aws bucket.




The below is just some information for reference:



Unfortunately, it's not compatible with the plugin "Plus WebP", images uploaded were converted to webp format, now the original images will be uploaded. Well it's not mandatory for conversion now when I use aws, the loading speed of images looks good even if each image is about 2-3mb.


Great plugin


NIce, but I still prefer the OCI media offload from articla for dedicated offloading to Oracle coud infrastructure.

Offload Media moves your WordPress files to cloud storage (AWS S3, DigitalOcean, Cloudflare R2, Google Cloud) to improve site performance.
