<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>


ZipMyMedia


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.

<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>displays a ‘Download’ link for
<ul>
<li>all installed plugins (in action links on ‘Plugins’ page)</li>
<li>all installed themes (on ‘Appearance’ page, also in wordpress 3.8 or higher)</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h4>Idea</h4>
<p>I wrote this plugin to simplify and improve code downloading when developing on a playground with contributors. With this plugin you can get complete package with other plugin or theme you are working on in one click. You can also use it to share your code with someone without downloading it via ftp, manually zipping and then sending it in e-mail or uploading the package back to your server or anything else… just tell him to click the link!</p>
<p>There are some other methods for this, there are advanced plugins which has such a feature to download other plugins, but I hope someone will find my code usefull as it is very simple in action and the simplest in use.</p>
<p>This plugin uses PclZip class integrated with WordPress.</p>
<p>Many thanks to <a href="http://www.online1.hu/webdesign/" rel="nofollow ugc">Viktor Szépe</a> for the idea of how to inject links on the appearance page in new wordpress UI (3.8 or higher).<br />

WP Downloader

i was worry about plugin to download. i installed and it download plugin i needed.



Like it

I needed to download plugins and themes from a website I didn't had SSH/FTP access to. This little plugin helped me a lot and got the job done flawlessly.

Still works perfectly

I successfully downloaded a theme installed onto WordPress 5.1.1 using this plugin.

Yes still works

Allows to download plugins and themes installed on your site as a zip package, ready to install on another site.
