Add From Server Lite

Import large files into the Media Library from your server. Skip browser upload limits without touching php.ini. Stop fighting WordPress upload limits Hosting caps and PHP upload limits should not decide whether your video, PDF, or product images make it into WordPress. Add From Server Lite (AFS Lite) lets you place files on the server with FTP or SSH, then import them into the Media Library from wp-admin. No php.ini edits required. Free imports use chunked AJAX in the browser (keep the Import page open). Compatible with typical shared hosting for that flow, and with multisite as a normal per-site plugin (settings and Media Library stay on each site). Imports land in the Media Library, so you can use them on WooCommerce product images the usual way. Need help? Contact eLearning evolve. How it works Upload files to your server with FTP or SSH (no browser size limit). Open AFS Lite in WordPress and browse to the folder. Select files or a whole folder and import them into the Media Library. That is the whole idea: put the files on disk first, then let WordPress register them properly. Built for real media libraries Folder import: select a folder and import its files and subfolders (scanned in chunks). Chunked imports: large jobs run in AJAX chunks while you keep the Import page open; cancel anytime. Duplicate awareness: skips files that already look imported (hash/path checks). Pro adds skip/replace/rename and cleanup tools. Search, filters, and pagination: find what you need in large directories. Configurable root: choose which area of the server the plugin may browse (limited by PHP open_basedir). Import summary: see how many files imported, were skipped as duplicates, or failed. A UI that stays out of your way Browse folders and files with checkboxes, a current-path display, and selection counts. Select-all controls sit at the top and bottom of the file list; Import files is available at the top of the browser and in the wizard footer. Keyboard shortcuts: Ctrl+A (or Cmd+A) selects all visible files; Esc clears search. Security that matches the job Importing from the server means path safety matters. AFS Lite is built with that in mind: Files must sit under your configured root (path boundary checks). Dangerous types such as PHP and executables are blocked by default. Types WordPress does not allow (including SVG unless you opt in under Settings) stay blocked too. Forms and AJAX use WordPress nonces. Paths are validated before browse or import. Output is escaped; inputs are sanitized. Add From Server Pro when you outgrow the basics Lite covers local browse and import. Add From Server Pro (AFS Pro) unlocks the heavier workflow tools: Background imports that keep going after you leave the page Scheduled and recurring folder imports Import history with per-file results Pause, resume, and retry failed items Folder structure preserve options Remote FTP / SFTP and S3-compatible sources REST API and WP-CLI Email alerts and role-based access control Get Add From Server Pro Our other plugins WPZoomy Virtual Classroom for WordPress (Free) Virtual Classroom for WordPress (Pro) LearnDash Student Voice Simple Email Scheduler UpdateGuard Topbar Buddy MasterQuiz AI
