<p>This plugin changes the box in the way that the default pop-up is replaced with the classic Media Uploader where you can choose images. <em>Images From URL do work</em>.</p>
<p>For a greater Multisite experience you can combine this plugin with the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/network-shared-media/" rel="ugc">Network Shared Media plugin</a> and have a complete Media Sharing site.</p>
