<p>WordPress lets you bulk-select media files in the Media Library, but only to delete them. <strong>ZipMyMedia</strong> adds the missing piece: a “Download Selected” button that zips up all the selected files and sends them to your browser as a single download.</p>
<p>It works seamlessly in both grid view and list view, and uses WordPress’s native UI patterns so the button feels like a built-in feature.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Adds a “Download Selected” button next to “Delete permanently” in grid view bulk-select mode</li>
<li>Adds a “Download Selected” option in the bulk actions dropdown in list view</li>
<li>Button stays disabled until you actually select something, with a live count of selected items</li>
<li>Single files download directly (no unnecessary zipping)</li>
<li>Multiple files are bundled into a timestamped ZIP archive</li>
<li>Handles duplicate filenames automatically (appends attachment IDs)</li>
<li>Uses nonce verification and capability checks for security</li>
<li>No settings page, no database tables — install and it just works</li>
</ul>
<h4>Use cases</h4>
<ul>
<li>Migrating media from one site to another</li>
<li>Downloading a batch of client photos in one go</li>
<li>Backing up specific media files without grabbing the entire uploads folder</li>
<li>Pulling assets for offline editing</li>
</ul>
<h4>Requirements</h4>
<ul>
<li>WordPress 5.5 or higher</li>
<li>PHP 7.4 or higher</li>
<li>PHP <code>ZipArchive</code> extension (available on virtually all hosts by default)</li>
</ul>

Just select multiple files in the media library and download them all as one zip file. Super easy and it works perfectly.No complicated settings, very lightweight. Saves me a lot of time when sending photos to clients or making quick backups.







thx!


Simple and works great!

Adds a "Download Selected" button to the WordPress Media Library so you can bulk-download multiple media files as a single ZIP.
