  • Great plugin + great tech support

    The plugin is straightforward and works well. Tech support is very responsive and helpful. A+

  • Just Works

    A little technical but that's when I was creating my Cloudflare R2 storage. The app is straightforward. However, it seems my webp images aren't sent to the bucket. Thanks

  • Does not work on WordPress.com

    This plugin is broken on Wordpress.com hosting. I want to make this clear, that this is not a fault of the developer, though. Jetpack (even with image optimization off) automatically messes with some of the thumbnails, which leads to the plugin's offloading feature failing repeatedly. (From what I can tell, it adds the virtual:true flag to the image). Regenerating thumbnails doesn't work. I gave this a 3-star and not a 1-star because I migrated to a self-hosted setup, and it's working fine.

  • Super great!

    Thank you for this amazing plugin! It works like a charm, out of the box. I've tried it with all sorts of different s3 storage providers, even some lesser known. It worked with all, custom URLs and all... Just great, congrats!

  • Amazing Plugin

    I don’t have experience with other offloading plugins, but Advanced Media Offloader has been an absolute joy to use — simple, intuitive, and straightforward.
