External Images is a WordPress plugin that allows you to reference and display images from external URLs directly within your WordPress content, rather than downloading and storing them locally on your server. This approach significantly reduces server storage requirements, speeds up the import process for content-heavy websites, and enables you to maintain massive websites without exhausting disk space or bandwidth resources.
This plugin is ideal for websites that import large volumes of content with many images, such as content aggregators, multi-site networks, or large e-commerce platforms. It's particularly useful for publishers who want to maintain lean server infrastructure while displaying extensive image galleries, and for sites that frequently sync content from external sources where images are already hosted elsewhere.
* Removed code for checking for and deleting orphans - this can be handled through a KB article instead as it's a one-off job to clean up data
* Further improvements for image galleries, variation galleries and all ways of saving, updating or importing images to prevent duplicate entries in database
