Description

HStorage Media Storage is a plugin that offloads your WordPress media files to the HStorage cloud storage service. When you upload images, documents, or other files through the WordPress Media Library, this plugin automatically transfers them to HStorage and replaces the local file URLs with fast content delivery network addresses. This helps reduce your server disk usage while improving page load times for your visitors.

When you delete a media file from WordPress, the plugin also removes it from HStorage, keeping both systems in sync without any manual intervention.

All sensitive credentials, such as your API key, are encrypted with industry-standard AES-256-GCM encryption before being stored in the database. You can verify your connection at any time using the built-in connection test on the settings page.

Key Features:

  • Automatically uploads new media files to HStorage cloud storage
  • Seamlessly integrates with the WordPress Media Library
  • Synchronizes deletions so removed files are also deleted from cloud storage
  • Encrypts API credentials before storing them in the database
  • Provides a one-click connection test to verify your setup
  • Includes a Japanese translation for the admin interface

Requirements:

  • WordPress 5.0 or higher
  • PHP 8.1 or higher
  • The OpenSSL extension for PHP must be enabled
  • An active HStorage account
