Upload Media By URL

Upload your files to the WordPress Media Library by URL.

Known Issues

This plugin may conflict with anything that alters the WordPress Media Library page.
If the URL has a signature verification or lacks a file extension, WordPress does not seem to import these types of files,
common when pulling images off private CDNs.
If the URL is lacking an extension for the filename, WordPress may not be able to download it.

Plugin conflicts:
-FileBird (tested and confirmed)
-WooCommerce Add New Product page (patched)
