Plugin Renamed: MaxUploader is now EasyMedia

🚀 Upgrade to EasyMedia Pro for Advanced Features

Take your media management to the next level with EasyMedia Pro!

Pro Features Include:

  • 📊 Upload Logs & Tracking – Monitor all file uploads with detailed logging, including user, file name, size, type, and timestamp. With the EasyMedia Pro Upload Logs module, you can see where each attachment is used across your site (posts, pages, or products).

  • 👥 Set User Storage Disk Limit – Set individual upload limits for specific users that override global settings. With this module, you can specially set the disk limit per individual user. This way we can handle over upload issue from the Editor and Author

Questions

Does this plugin work with all servers and hosting providers?

Yes, it works with all servers. However, please note that server-adjusted limits can’t be changed from a WordPress plugin. If the server’s set limit is 16MB, you can’t increase it to 128MB via WordPress. However, in that case, we chunk the large uploaded file into smaller pieces as a reflection of the upload time, which can be slower. But its possible to upload a big file if your server set upload limit is higher. Install the plugin, and it’ll inform you of the limits and the necessary actions. inally we upload file files even your site dose not allow it.

Increase maximum execution time, but not working?

Usually, we upload large files by chunking to a small size, but if your WordPress upload directory is protected, then we can’t create a chunk directory. Please open a support ticket — our team will investigate and help resolve the issue.

What’s the difference between free and pro versions?

The free version allows you to increase upload limits and execution time. The pro version adds advanced features like upload logging, user-based limits, role restrictions, statistics dashboard, and enhanced media library display. Learn more about EasyMedia Pro

Can I upgrade from free to pro?

Yes! You can upgrade anytime. The pro version works alongside the free version and adds additional features without affecting your current settings.

Do I get support with the free version?
