Add the Date to Uploaded File Names
Prefixes uploaded file names with the upload date, such as 2025-03-14-team-photo.jpg, so files sort chronologically on the server and in downloads.
Snippet Library
Media snippets for WordPress
Snippets for the Media Library and uploads: allow SVG or other file types, rename and limit uploads, add image sizes, categories for media and alt text helpers. For content teams and developers who handle a lot of images and files.
Allow Font, eBook and Data File Uploads for Administrators
Lets administrators upload web fonts (WOFF, WOFF2, TTF, OTF), EPUB eBooks, JSON and GPX files to the Media Library, which WordPress blocks by default.
Allow Only Images and PDFs for Non-Administrators
Limits the file types authors, editors and other non-admin users can upload to common images and PDF documents.
Allow SVG Uploads for Administrators
Lets administrators upload SVG files to the Media Library. Files containing scripts, event handlers or javascript: links are rejected.
Block Duplicate Uploads
Stops the same file from being uploaded twice by comparing a fingerprint of each new upload with files already in the Media Library, and tells the user where the existing copy is.
Change the Big Image Size Limit
Sets the size above which WordPress scales down very large uploaded images (2560 pixels by default), for example to 1920 pixels to save disk space and bandwidth.
Clean Up File Names on Upload
Converts uploaded file names to lowercase, removes accents and replaces spaces and symbols with dashes, for tidy and portable URLs.
Disable PDF Preview Images
Stops WordPress from generating preview images for every uploaded PDF, saving disk space and server time when you upload many documents.
Image Guidelines Note in the Upload Screens
Shows a short note with your image rules, such as recommended sizes, file types and the need for alt text, right inside the media uploader and Media > Add New screen.
Limit the Maximum Upload Size
Caps the size of files that can be uploaded through WordPress at 8 MB, even if the server allows more.
Minimum and Maximum Image Dimensions for Uploads
Rejects image uploads that are smaller or larger than the pixel sizes you set, so blurry thumbnails and oversized camera originals never reach the Media Library.
Name Uploaded Files After Their Post
Renames files uploaded from inside the post editor to match the post's slug, so "DSC_0042.jpg" becomes "summer-menu.jpg", which is better for image search.
Replace a Media File and Keep Its URL
Adds a "Replace file" box to the media edit screen that uploads a new version of an image, PDF or other file over the old one, keeping the same address so every link and embed updates at once.
Save JPEG and PNG Uploads as WebP
Makes WordPress generate WebP versions instead of JPEG and PNG for every image size it creates on upload, which usually cuts image weight by a quarter or more.
Shorten Very Long Upload File Names
Trims uploaded file names longer than 60 characters, such as camera exports or copied web titles, to a tidy length before saving, while keeping the extension.
Sort Uploads Into Folders by File Type
Stores new uploads in images, videos, audio and documents folders inside your uploads directory, which keeps the file system tidy on large sites.
Store Each User's Uploads in Their Own Folder
Saves uploads into a folder named after the uploader, such as uploads/users/jane/2025/03/, which keeps multi-author and client sites tidy and makes per-person cleanups easy.
Store Uploads in Folders Named After the Post Type
Saves files uploaded from inside a post, page or custom post into a folder named after its type, such as uploads/products/ or uploads/pages/, keeping the year and month folders inside.
Tidy Image Titles on Upload
Turns file-name titles like "IMG_2041-sunset_beach-final" into readable ones like "Sunset beach final" when images are uploaded, so the Media Library is easier to search.
Unused Media Files Report
Adds a Media > Unused Files screen listing uploads that are not attached to any content, not used as a featured image and not found in any post, so you can review and tidy the Media Library.
Use a Photo's Embedded Description as Its Alt Text
Fills the alt text of newly uploaded photos from the description or headline embedded by cameras, photo agencies and Lightroom (IPTC data), when it exists and no alt text is set.
