Use the OSS Upload plug-in to automatically store WordPress media files to Alibaba Cloud Object Storage OSS

I remember a few days ago, a blogger asked Snail whether there is any plug-in that can store WordPress media (image) files in Alibaba Cloud Object Storage OSS, so that the blog can directly retrieve the address from Alibaba Cloud Object Storage OSS to display images. Reduce the pressure on VPS (or virtual host) storage and bandwidth. Especially at present, most VPS hosts in mainland China are allocated 1Mbps bandwidth ports. It may not be stressful to run a text-only blog, but it may still be a bit of a problem to display a large number of pictures on a server with 1Mbps bandwidth ports. Today I saw a relatively practical WordPress plug-in - OSS Upload. You can directly upload images to your own Alibaba Cloud Object Storage OSS, and the file is not saved on the local server, and the display address is automatically retrieved. It is very practical. Here is a simple Introduces the use and configuration process of this plug-in.

1. Plug-in download and installation

OSS Upload was developed by @XiaoMac, a big guy from mainland China, in 2016, and the plug-in has been updated all the time. There are two installation methods. One is to directly search for "OSS Upload" on the WordPress backend plug-in management page and install it.

Another way is to download the plug-in locally and install it by uploading it to the server:
