Replace External Images

Autors Hans & Friends

Apraksts

“Replace External Images” lets you import externally hosted images used in post content directly into your WordPress media library — either one by one or now with the new bulk import feature across multiple posts at once.

The plugin automatically replaces external URLs in the content with local media URLs, shows a live progress view, supports any image host, and updates featured images where needed.

Ideal for:
– site migrations
– pasted content from other sources
– cleaning up hotlinked images
– processing many posts in one go with the bulk importer

BUJ

Does it overwrite existing media?: No — it only imports external images and skips media already in the library.
What happens to the image URLs?: They are updated to local media paths after import.
Can I undo the import?: Not automatically. Please make a backup before running the importer if you need to restore content later.
What happens with protected or blocked images?: Some image sources actively block hotlinking or automated downloads by returning a different content type (e.g. text/plain instead of image/jpeg).
This plugin detects such cases and skips the import gracefully — no image is saved, and the log explains why.
What if the post doesn’t have a featured image?: If a post has no featured image, the plugin will automatically set the first successfully imported image as the featured image.
