Export/Import Media
by Maira Foresto on WordPress.org
The ultimate tool to migrate your media library. Export to CSV with Advanced Filters and Import securely with Drag & Drop.
Export/Import Media is the robust solution for migrating your WordPress media library from one site to another, maintaining all SEO metadata.
The plugin generates a CSV file containing all critical information (URLs, paths, alt text, titles, captions, descriptions). You can then use this file to import images into a new site seamlessly.
🚀 New in version 1.4.0:
We have completely redesigned the interface! Now featuring a modern Drag & Drop area, Advanced Export Filters (by Product, Post, or Page), and a Downloadable Log for better control.
Why use this plugin?
* Perfect for Migrations: Move thousands of images without server timeouts.
* SEO Friendly: Keeps all your Alt Text and Titles intact.
* Developer Ready: Completely refactored with hooks and filters.
Features
- Modern Drag & Drop: Upload your CSV files easily with our new visual interface.
- Secure Import: Uses native WordPress APIs (Sideloading) to ensure files are safe and valid.
- Smart Export Filters: Export only what you need. Filter by Date Range or by Attachment Type (WooCommerce Products, Posts, Pages, or Unattached).
- Performance Mode: Option to Skip Thumbnail Generation for lightning-fast imports (up to 5x faster).
- Downloadable Log: Get a detailed
.txtlog file after import to debug any issues. - Duplicate Prevention: Checks file hash (MD5) to prevent importing the same image twice.
- Batch Processing: AJAX-powered process prevents server timeouts, even with large files.
- Local Import Mode: Link images already present in your
/uploads/folder without downloading them again.
