import-external-images-2's Introduction

=== Import External Images 2 v2.0.6 ===

Makes local copies of all externally linked images and (Optionally) PDFs in a post or page.

== Description ==

Imports remotely hosted images and PDFs where they are referenced within a post and updates their links to point to the local file.

The plugin shows a number next to the title of posts that contain external images. This number includes the count of links to external images that can be updated. Consider this number to be a count of total changes to be made i.e. it includes images to be imported and links to be updated.

= Features =

Import externally hosted images
Import post-by-post during post editing
Import to multiple posts at a time by visiting Dashboard > Media > Import Images

= Credits =

Version 1.5.x and above: Released by VR51.

This plugin is based on Import External Images by Marty Thornley https://github.com/MartyThornley/import-external-images, which is based on the "Add Linked Images to Gallery" plugin by http://www.bbqiguana.com/.

= Donate =

Donate Link: https://paypal.me/vr51

== Installation ==

Download the "Import External Images 2" zip file.
Upload to your WordPress plugins directory.
Activate the plugin via the WordPress Plugins tab.
Navigate to Media > Import Images or edit a post to import externally linked media.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How does this plugin work? =

This plugin will find IMG attachments or PDF attachments within posts and pages. Any external attachments will be downloaded to your site's media library and their links in posts/pages will be changed to those of the file in your own website's media library.

= Does it work with MultiSite? =

Yes!

= What if I don't want to import images from a third party image hosting site? =

You can use the settings page to make Import External Images 2 ignore domains.

= Images won't import. What can I do? =

Install (WP Sweep)[https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-sweep/] Visit Tools > Sweep then sweep the transients (it is the bottom option).
Confirm the server that hosts the images does not use hotlink protection. If images are protected you won't be able to download them in some cases.
Make sure the site that hosts the remote images is not in maintenance mode and is not blocking your own site's IP address.

= I can't use the bulk image importer to import images into multiple pages simulataneously. What gives? =

This bug began with the release of WordPress 4.9.1 and vanished with 4.9.3. Hopefully you will not meet this bug.

Sometimes pages need to be visited by the admin user before images will import. The pages only need to be briefly opened then closed in a browser tab in the same browser as your active admin session or in a different browser on the same machine (i.e. you don't need to be logged in when viewing the pages).

Use the site's sitemap to visit pages or use the 'view' button next to each post in the bulk options page then run the importer again.

Removed external_image_getext(). Appears not to be used anywhere in the plugin code so deemed redundent.
Changed title of function is_external_file() to is_allowed_file(). This new name better suits the functions purpose.
Edited is_allowed_file(). Combine the arrays $allowed and $allowedAlso into single $allowed. Introduced foreach loop.
Reduced duplicate checks against is_allowed_file. Props Ivan0xFF for noticing the superflorous checks.
Edited external_image_get_img_tags() to fix issues fetching some remote images with query strings in the URLs. Props Ivan0xFF for this fix.

Added view and edit buttons to import results page.
Prefixed all functions and CSS with vr_

Images with spaces in the file name

Hi:
It seems that jpegs with spaces in their file name are not noticed by Import External Images 2 in the dialogue that appears before importing an article. I haven't looked at the code yet, but would be interested in your response.
Thanks,
Alex

Images that do not specify protocol

Images that do not start with http or https do not get imported. Example: //cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0599/9033/articles/JAH4WW-Logo_grande.png

bbPress Support

Hi,

Would it be possible to incoroporate support for bbPress?

It would be nice to be able to grab images from 3rd party hosts and store them locally when our users submit posts (and to perform an import from our forum history).

Cheers!

Looks at wrong location for images

Hi,

I am not able to import by bulk or by post.

Background - I imported my blog from Blogger to Wordpress running on Bitnami, AWS. I ran the Blogger Import Extended plugin for this, only a few photos came over, the very oldest.

When I run the plugin it lists the posts and number of photos for each but if I try import single posts nothing shows in the edit page. If I try bulk import it says unable to find photos and I see it is looking at the original temporary address of the Wordpress install before a static address was set. And yes the Blogger import plugin was run prior to the static address being set. I did not know this would cause problem.

I tried WP Sweep. Any suggestions how to resolve the conflict would be welcome.

Thanks.

Images with a querystring do not get imported

Images that have a querystring do not get imported, due to the file extensions not being properly recognized. Example: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0599/9033/articles/JAH4WW-Logo_grande.png?v=1500403514

No show in Gutenberg Editor

Wordpress 5.0 use Gutenberg Editor
and the option not show in Gutenberg Editor
please fix it, thanks

*import Image work fine

Images wont import from Wordpress.com

Hello, thanks for this plug-in! I migrated a blog from wordpress.com to self-hosted (bluehost). In the "Import Images" settings page, the "View" post links are all to the old Wordpress.com site (but the Edit links are to the correct, new site). No images will import.

Plugin errors out with a very large amount of posts on a site.

I have a site with over 30,000 posts that have spanned the last 15 years. Long story short if I try and run the process all posts I get a memory error
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 786432000 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 32 bytes) in /home/impactlabtest/public_html/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1889

Since i've allocated 1gb of ram to wp itself I dont think I can allocate any more memory to help with this. Any other suggestions? Could I modify the plugin to only get the posts 1-1000 or something like that so I could just do a certain amount of images at a time?

Thanks for your help

wp_insert_post()

I add posts to wordpress using an external PHP script, something like this:

$new_post = array(
	'post_title' => $title,
	'post_content' => "blah blah <img src='https://example.com/image.jpg'> ";
	'post_status' => 'publish',
	'post_author' => $wp_user_id,
	'post_type' => 'post',
	'post_category' => array(),
	'tags_input' => array()
);
	$post_id = wp_insert_post($new_post, true);

But the images are not imported in the local library. The remote image is displayed in the post.

Is there a way I can use your plugin to import external images when posting from an external PHP script instead of using the WP admin dashboard to create a new post ?

Thanks

Can't get image

hey, i already use wp sweep, but still cant get image to media form host
squarespace.com or thespruce.com have similar text

Doesn't import url that doesn't have image name.

Example:
https://via.placeholder.com/350x150

Doesn't seem to work at all anymore

Just doesn't do anything anymore. The import images window just doesn't show up on imported posts at all.

Doesn't seem to do anything.

Its detecting the images in the posts, but doesn't do anything with them.

I tried viewing the page like suggested in the readme. But still the same thing. And all of the URLs are public and can be accessed.

Suggestion for upload image attribute

hello, this plugin work fine, sometime cant change link the url buy image upoad in media.
I have suggestion, can u add import the alt attribute in image to alt image in media too ?

see this plugin: https://github.com/airani/wp-auto-upload
this plugin do jobs like your plugin, plugin work fine too but when edit post, he can duplicate image in media.
of course this for reference, sometime this plugin can upload image to media and change url in post, with your plugin can't do it.

Email?

Hi there,

I'm trying to import pics from Flickr. However, after I installed the plugin, I got this message on the plugin's page (under Media/):

Process all posts
The site is experiencing technical difficulties. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions.

Never got an email, though.

I've got lots of plugins running, could that be the issue?

Bulk Import not working

Hey Lee, I have been trying to bulk import multiple images on multiple blogs. Images are all on photobucket. It works perfectly individually. But the bulk option just sits there and does nothing. I don't see any errors in the log files either. No matter how long I leave it, it never imports a post unless its individually. Latest wordpress running php 7.2 and nginx. Let me know if you have any ideas.
Thanks
Dan

Images with ? and & in the URL not getting imported

It looks like if the URL of the image contains parameters it is detected, but it does not get imported. Here is an example of such an image:

https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/0fcd5dff58c9ca73181b3bbbca837a6968a696d8/0_0_2083_1250/2083.jpg?width=460&quality=85&auto=format&usm=12&fit=max&s=0b68772d79eb7ca4c25b36686f58c501
