Keep your site moving at top-speed with dedicated media delivery that seamlessly integrates with WordPress.

Simple Cloud Delivery

The Infinite Uploads plugin makes it so anyone can connect to the cloud without setting up confusing storage provider accounts or paying for expensive third-party utility plugins. Use smart-connect to set up and move your library to the cloud. No more copy and paste API keys or cloud configurations.

Media File Storage Calculator

Install the Infinite Uploads plugin, scan your Media Library for a breakdown of your media files by type and size. See how many images, videos, archives, documents, code, and other files (like audio) there are and how much space they’re taking up.

Infinite Uploads helps you identify which files are using the most space on your server and allows you to move all your media files to cloud storage.

Ecommerce Ready

Not only is Infinite Uploads great for delivering highquality product images and videos, store and deliver your large digital download files in the cloud. Infinite Uploads works with both Forced Downloads PHP protection and X-Accel-Redirect/X-Sendfile (nginx/apache).

Widely Compatible

Infinite Uploads is built with the latest in cloud technology to work flawlessly with the widest variety of your favorite themes and plugins and has been tested with:

Fast and Incredibly Secure

Infinite Uploads uses encrypted SSL to transfer files, is stored in highly resilient and available storage with 99.999999999% (11 x 9s) of durability, and our API was designed from the ground up with with bulletproof security. All API tokens and credentials are hashed, encrypted, segmented per customer and site, and rotated without you having to do a thing. We support multiple 2-factor login methods including phish-proof U2F security keys to protect access to your account and data.

For low latency and legal compliance with laws like GDPR you can choose a USA or Europe (Germany) cloud storage location for each site you connect. And for lightning fast download speeds all files are served from the location closest to your visitors via our world-wide enterprise-class Content Delivery Network (CDN) with 50+ points of presence!

FTP/SFTP Client-free File Manager

Keep managing all your files right from inside the WordPress dashboard just like before. Skip the protocol settings, server names, port numbers, usernames, long passwords, private keys, and API credentials. Manage access to the Media Library with the built-in user roles to streamline customer, visitor, and team member training.

Power user? We provide S3-compatible credentials for direct cloud file managment, or use our WP CLI commands to move files to and from the cloud, scan your library, and more.

Compatible Media File Types

If you can upload it to the WordPress Media Library, you can move it to the cloud. Infinite Uploads essentially replaces your WordPress uploads directory with cloud storage, so any theme or plugin that writes files there sends them to the cloud instead!

FAQ

Why should I move and share my media library from the cloud?

Images, videos, and audio files are the biggest performance drain on a website. Hosting your media files alongside your site code both slows performance and quickly creates overages for your more expensive web hosting storage. Moving your Media Library to performance-optimized cloud storage and serving your files from a Content Delivery Network will not only save space and lower cost, it improves performance.

Will this let me upload large files like videos to WordPress?

Our video hosting feature let’s you upload directly to the cloud from the WordPress dashboard, bypassing all host limits. For other media types, you can use our free plugin Big File Uploads to bypass server limitations.

Is the Infinite Uploads plugin free?

Yes the Infinite Uploads plugin is free but it does require an Infinite Uploads account to be useful in storing and serving your files from the cloud. It can be used on an unlimited number of sites without per-site or per file licensing costs like competitors.

Will the Infinite Uploads plugin work without connecting to Cloud Storage?

Yes. Use the Infinite Uploads storage scanner to analyze the files in your media library. See what files are causing overages with a graphic breakdown of the files size and type and learn what content is taking up your hosting storage. You will have to connect to our cloud to use the cloud storage and CDN features.

How many websites can I connect to one cloud account?

Connect an unlimited number of sites to your Infinite Uploads account at no cost. Pay only for your cloud storage usage.

How many files can I upload each month?

Upload as many files as you like and only ever pay for the cost of your storage and bandwidth. No file overages or per-site charges.

What servers is Infinite Uploads using?

Infinite Uploads is a hybrid custom stack built and hosted with multiple enterprise-grade cloud services for the ultimate in security, speed, power, and performance. All without the cost of a sysadmin or the complexity of configuring servers, policies, permissions, keys, etc…pure magic.

Why can’t I just use AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure, etc?

There are plugins for that, but they all have expensive per-site or per-file annual license fees. And then you have to figure out how to signup for and configure complicated cloud providers and CDNs.
Finally, while the per/GB prices of cloud storage may seem cheap, there are all the hidden costs you don’t realize like class A/B/C/D API transaction costs, and bandwidth x3 (to cloud > to cdn > to user). Bandwidth costs alone can often total 8x more than your storage bill!
Infinite Uploads makes the power of the cloud simple and affordable for non-cloud architects like you.

I installed this plugin after running out of disk space on my server. I installed Infinite Uploads, and offloaded the media on the sites on my server over to Infinite Uploads, and saved me from having to spend $60 to upgrade to the next tier with my host!

I need to specify that only .mp3 files get uploaded. I have several .jpg and .png files, for example, that affect the graphics on my website, that I do NOT want to upload. Is there a way to do this? Please advise Thanks..

I downloaded Infinite Uploads and started using it in the free trial period. Then I paid and was continuing to use it. Shortly after I bought the first year, it started breaking my WP site built with Elementor. So I contacted support. After 2 days I finally got a reply telling me to check the caching in Elementor. After that I replied with info and waited two more days with no response from support. So then I reached out again, but support seems to be nowhere to be found. I would not recommend paying for this plugin with the support I have not received when a problem developed.

This plugin does exactly what it promises for images, files, and video. It outperformed other cloud-based plugins we tested against. It’s very simple to set up. It’s been easy to manage on multiple sites within our growing agency. And, most important to us, the support we’ve received has been over the top – working very quickly and going deep to help us when we needed it. Truly excellent all around. Our thanks Infinite Uploads team for everything you’ve enabled for us so far.

Let’s start with the fact that we haven’t received a HELLO since our first email and this is very rude from the first message. Since we installed the site it was damaged, then it was solved next day, we have 4 domains in which we were interested in the service but what happened was that the whole system became mega slow. After several emails to solve the problem we lasted a day and a half without our users could not log in or even lose customers because no one could buy anything because the system did not detect any cloud to save the information. They tried to help but in one message they were almost uninterested in finding a solution to keep us as customers. We expected solutions but after delays with a problem that should be solved from a LIVE CHAT for accounts starting or premium resulted in that they could not help or solve the problem. Negative points for poor service in resolving these serious problems and also for the lack of education. Definitely not recommended for sites with customer as there are too many errors that they are not prepared to solve…, Luckily all this happened in the 7 days trial so if you want to try it take advantage of the 7 days.
