Miller Media Server File Import

Beschreibung

Miller Media Server File Import lets WordPress administrators browse files already on the server and import them directly into the Media Library — no need to download and re-upload.

This is useful when:

  • You’ve migrated files via FTP/SFTP and need to register them in WordPress
  • A developer has placed assets on the server that need to be in the Media Library
  • You have files in a non-standard location that should be accessible through WordPress

Features:

  • AJAX-powered file browser with breadcrumb navigation
  • Select individual files or use „Select All“ to import in bulk
  • Duplicate detection — files already in the Media Library are flagged
  • Copy or move files from outside the uploads directory
  • Restrict browsing to a configurable root directory (defaults to wp-content)
  • Limit allowed file types via settings
  • Full REST API for programmatic access
  • Works with any user role that has the upload_files capability

Security:

  • Path traversal protection via realpath() boundary checks
  • MIME type validation using WordPress core functions
  • Capability checks on all endpoints (upload_files for browse/import, manage_options for settings)
  • CSRF protection via WordPress REST API nonces

Installation

  1. Upload the miller-media-server-file-import folder to /wp-content/plugins/
  2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu
  3. Go to Media > Miller Media Server File Import to browse and import files
  4. Optionally configure settings under Settings > Miller Media Server File Import

FAQ

What file types can be imported?

By default, any file type that WordPress allows for uploads. You can further restrict this with the „Allowed File Types“ setting.

Where do imported files end up?

Files already in the WordPress uploads directory are used in place. Files from outside uploads are copied (or moved, based on your settings) into the standard uploads directory.

Will this create duplicate files?

The plugin checks for duplicates before importing. Files that have already been imported are shown as „Already imported“ in the browser and cannot be re-imported.

Can I change the root browsing directory?

Yes. Go to Settings > Miller Media Server File Import and set the Root Directory to any path on the server.

Who can use this plugin?

Any user with the upload_files capability can browse and import files. Only administrators (manage_options) can change the plugin settings.
