Overview
Managing files across client websites can mean accessing each site separately. This plugin lets you upload multiple files to connected Child Sites from one MainWP Dashboard, giving WordPress agencies and site managers a centralized way to handle file transfers.
The uploader accepts WordPress files, archives, documents, images, audio and video. You can specify the directory where files should go on Child Sites, which can help organize transfers and support workflows such as site cloning and restoration.
Features
- Bulk uploads across sites: Send multiple files to connected Child Sites from the MainWP Dashboard, without accessing each site individually to handle its uploads.
- Broad file type support: Upload PHP, CSS, JavaScript and ZIP files, along with documents, images, audio and video files.
- Choose a destination directory: Specify the directory path on Child Sites where uploaded files should be placed, giving you control over their location.
- Support cloning and restoration: Transfer backup files to multiple Child Sites to support site cloning or restoration workflows.
- Work from MainWP Dashboard: Manage file uploads within the MainWP Dashboard, with the upload process centralized alongside your connected site management.
Best for
- WordPress agencies managing client sites
