README

Description

Upload and serve your WordPress media from Google Cloud Storage (GCS) with the WP-Stateless plugin. In as little as two minutes, you will be benefiting from serving your media from Google Cloud's distributed servers.

New to Google Cloud? Google is offering you a $300 credit to get you started.

Benefits

  • Store and deliver media files on Google Cloud Storage instead of your server.
  • Google Cloud Storage is geo-redundant, meaning your media is delivered by the closest server - reducing latency and improving page speed.
  • Scale your WordPress website across multiple servers without the need for synchronizing media files.
  • Native integration between Google Cloud Storage and WordPress.
  • $300 free trial from Google Cloud. Nice!

Modes

  • Backup - Upload media files to Google Storage and serve local file URLs.
  • CDN - Copy media files to Google Storage and serve them directly from there.
  • Ephemeral - Store and serve media files with Google Cloud Storage only. Media files are not stored locally, but local storage is used temporarily for processing and is required for certain compatibilities.
  • Stateless - Store and serve media files with Google Cloud Storage only. Media files are not stored locally.

Features

  • Setup assistant makes getting started fast and easy.
  • No need to manually create service accounts or buckets - handled automatically.
  • Settings panel provides you with further GCS configuration and file URL customization.
  • Mask the default GCS URL with your own custom domain.
  • Automatically replace hardcoded media URLs with GCS equivalents in post editor and meta.
  • Batch image thumbnail regeneration.
  • Synchronization tools for uploading existing files and images.
  • All settings supported with wp-config constants and network setting overrides.
  • Multiple modes: Backup, CDN, Ephemeral, Stateless.
  • All files served in HTTPS mode.
  • Serverless platform compatible, including Google App Engine.
  • Multisite compatible.
