## Descripción

Makes local copies of all the linked images and pdfs in a post, adding them as gallery
attachments.

Source & support:

https://github.com/ryanpcmcquen/import-external-attachments

#### Agradecimientos

This plugin is based on the work done in the «Import External Images» plugin by 
MartyThornley.

https://github.com/MartyThornley

HTTPS support added by IvanDoomer:
 https://github.com/IvanDoomer

PDF support added by bengreeley:
 https://github.com/bengreeley

Most of the JavaScript was rewritten from the original plugin, to reduce the
 number
of global variables.

## Instalación

 1. Download the «Import external attachments» zip file.
 2. Extract the files to your WordPress plugins directory.
 3. Activate the plugin via the WordPress Plugins tab.

## FAQ

  How does this plugin work?

The plugin examines the HTML source of your post when you save it, inspecting each
IMG tag, and processing them according to the options you have selected.

Under the default settings, it will find IMG tags with links to images on other 
web sites and copy those images to your web site, updating the IMG src to point 
to your copy.

PDF functionality was added by bengreeley.

  Does it work with MultiSite?

Yes! It was developed and built (and is used everyday) at PhotographyBlogSites.com–
a multisite install.

  What if i don’t want to import images from a third party image hosting site?

You can make it ignore any domain you want on the settings page, in case you work
with a CDN or photo hosting site and want to keep those images where they are.

Плагин выполняет свои функции с классическом редактором, но замораживается процесс,
когда попадается статья, с неработающей внешней картинкой. Предварительно лучше 
избавиться от нерабочих картинок

This worked for me in 2023. All I had to do was install Classic editor and make 
sure the post pages wern’t using any third party page builders. To import the missing
attachments, I then opened the edit page for each post one by one and followed the
instructions in the right sidebar. Once done, simply uninstalled classic editor 
and this plugin. Awesome. Thank you.

Works great.

This plugin does more than what it says, it is so good. I only hope it stays updated
regularly.
