Ever tried uploading a video or large image to WordPress and hit the dreaded “exceeds the maximum upload size” error? Or watched a long upload fail at 90% because your connection blipped?
Uploads Unleashed fixes both problems. Instead of sending your files all at once, it splits them into small pieces behind the scenes. This means:
<ul>
<li>Get past upload size limits. Upload files larger than what your server normally allows — no need to contact your host or edit config files.</li>
<li>No more starting over. If your connection drops, or you close your browser, come back and pick up right where you left off.</li>
<li>Real-time progress. Watch your upload progress as it happens.</li>
</ul>
It works everywhere you upload in WordPress — the Media Library, the block editor, and the classic editor. Just activate the plugin and you’re done. There are no settings to configure.

Uploads Unleashed


I've uploaded several large video files without a hitch, even on a spotty hotel wifi connection that tends to drop. The fact that it picks up right where it left off instead of starting over is a game changer. Simple, reliable, and does one thing really well.


Effortless large file uploads that just works

Upload large files to WordPress without hitting size limits or losing progress when your connection drops.

Protect Uploads

The uploads directory is where the files of the WordPress library are stored. Unfortunelty, this directory is not protected. A person who wants to see all your library could list it instantly going to : http://yourwebsite/wp-content/uploads . This plugin will hide the content by adding an index.php file on the root of your uploads directory or by setting an htaccess which will return a 403 error (Forbidden Access).
<ul>
<li>Depending on your server setting, the htaccess option could be disabled.</li>
</ul>
New Features in Version 0.6.0:
<ul>
<li>Image Watermarking: Add text watermarks to your uploaded images with customizable position, opacity, and font size.</li>
<li>Right-Click Protection: Prevent users from right-clicking to download or save your images.</li>
<li>Password Protection: Secure individual media files with passwords. Multiple passwords can be set for each file with custom labels.</li>
<li>Access Logging: Track who accesses your password-protected files with detailed logs including IP address and user agent.</li>
</ul>
Available languages:
<ul>
<li>English</li>
<li>Français</li>
<li>Español</li>
<li>Italian (thanks to Marko97)</li>
</ul>

Do not download. The plugin has been changed not too long ago and it now infects your wordpress installation, and possible spreads itself to other sites if you are on shared hosting.
