Efficient File Importing for WordPress Users

Add From Server is a free WordPress plugin designed to simplify the process of importing large files that exceed the limitations set by web hosts. It allows users to upload files via FTP or SSH and then import them directly into their WordPress media library. This is particularly useful for those who face restrictions on file size or slower internet upload speeds, providing a practical solution for managing media content. However, users should be aware that this plugin does not serve as a replacement for the standard WordPress file uploader, nor is it intended for website migration or batch importing of media files.

The plugin offers limited support and may not receive regular updates or new features, which could affect its long-term viability. Users are encouraged to consider their specific needs before utilizing Add From Server, as WordPress's native file upload functionality is generally more efficient for most use cases. For those seeking advanced media import options, exploring WP-CLI is recommended.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
