We'll create fresh WordPress site with Easy search and use CC-licensed images for WP installed. You have 20 minutes to test the plugin after that site we'll be deleted.
Easy search and use CC-licensed images for WP helps you search millions of free photos using the Openverse API and insert the original image into your content or set as featured image very quickly.
It allows the user to filter the provider source.
The plugin is inspired and based on the [CCSearch] (https://ccsearch.creativecommons.org/) and it wouldnt’t be possible without the Openverse API and until version 2.0 the Creative Commons Catalog API.
After the plugin’s activation, you can see the “Image with CC License” button above the editor and as option into the “Add Media” pop-up window.
By pressing it you can search using Latin characters for an image, browse the returned images, preview an image and its license and adjust the image settings:
– use of thumbnail or original image,
– set the image link (if any).
– Insert the image into the post or as featured image.
You can find a blog post in opensource.creativecommons.org about the inspiration and how it works.
