What the author says it does

FORMERLY WP OFFLOAD S3 LITE

This plugin automatically copies images, videos, documents, and any other media added through WordPress’ media uploader to Amazon S3, DigitalOcean Spaces or Google Cloud Storage. It then automatically replaces the URL to each media file with their respective Amazon S3, DigitalOcean Spaces or Google Cloud Storage URL or, if you have configured Amazon CloudFront or another CDN with or without a custom domain, that URL instead. Image thumbnails are also copied to the bucket and delivered through the correct remote URL.

Uploading files directly to your Amazon S3, DigitalOcean Spaces or Google Cloud Storage account is not currently supported by this plugin. They are uploaded to your server first, then copied to the bucket. There is an option to automatically remove the files from your server once they are copied to the bucket however.

If you’re adding this plugin to a site that’s been around for a while, your existing media files will not be copied to or served from Amazon S3, DigitalOcean Spaces or Google Cloud Storage. Only newly uploaded files will be copied to and served from the bucket. The pro upgrade has an upload tool to handle existing media files.

Latest changelog entry

WP Offload Media Lite 3.4.4 – 2026-10-28

  • Security: It’s no longer possible for a site administrator without network management privileges to craft REST requests to alter options
  • Security: Authentication is now required to pause & resume the current upgrade routine, thanks Asif Masood
  • Bug fix: The image_downsize filter is no longer handled if another plugin has already handled it
  • Bug fix: Offloaded images in post content are now looked up together rather than one at a time, reducing database queries on pages with many images

Where this page's numbers come from

Read from the WordPress.org plugin API on , when WordPress 7.1.4 was the current release. WordPress.org rounds active installs into buckets. These are the directory's figures, not my verdict, and I haven't tested this plugin.
