## Beschreibung

Media Library File Download adds practical file tools to your WordPress Media Library.

#### Free features

 * Download an original file from its attachment details or edit screen.
 * Export the complete media library you can manage as a ZIP.
 * Replace a file with the same type and extension while preserving its attachment
   URL.
 * Regenerate image sizes when replacing images.

Exports contain original local files, without generated image sizes or attachment
metadata. Offloaded files that are unavailable locally cannot be exported. Archive
creation requires the PHP ZIP extension and enough temporary disk space and request
time for your library.

#### Pro features

 * Download a selection of media files as a ZIP.
 * Download directly from Media Library list rows and thumbnail controls.
 * Import files selected with Google Picker into WordPress.
 * Upload WordPress media to a Google Drive folder you choose.
 * Remember your upload folder and review recent transfer results.
 * Retry failed transfers and move your uploaded copies to Drive trash.

Google Drive access is limited to files you select and files this app creates. Choosing
a folder does not authorize access to its existing contents. Select individual files
to import them. Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Drawings import as PDFs; other 
Google-native file types and shortcuts are unsupported. Google export limits and
your WordPress upload limits apply. Keep the transfer tab open until completion.

Pro requires a Freemius entitlement, including an eligible trial. Google Drive uses
the WP Luna connection service and requires PHP OpenSSL. Each WordPress user clicks
Connect Google Drive and signs in to their own Google account. Customers do not 
need a Google Cloud project or API credentials.

### External services

Freemius provides licensing, updates, and optional account services. It communicates
with Freemius according to the SDK’s consent and licensing flow. See https://freemius.
com/privacy/ and https://freemius.com/terms/.

In Pro, the WP Luna connection service handles Google sign-in and hosts Google Picker.
When you connect or select files, your site sends its Freemius installation ID, 
site URL, a pseudonymous WordPress user identifier, and a signed request to WP Luna.
The service verifies Pro entitlement with Freemius and stores encrypted Google authorization
per site and WordPress user. Pending connection and selection requests expire after
10 minutes; unused connections expire after 90 days. Disconnect removes the stored
connection. No Google client secret or refresh token is distributed with the plugin.

The service returns a short-lived Google access token to WordPress and selected 
file IDs and names from Picker. File contents transfer directly between WordPress
and Google Drive. Imports request selected Drive files and metadata; uploads send
chosen WordPress file contents, names, and destination IDs. The plugin stores an
encrypted connection per WordPress user, a selected folder, and up to 50 recent 
transfer records. The free package does not load the Google integration. Google 
policies: https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://policies.google.com/terms.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate Media Library File Download.
 2. Open Media > Media Download for library export and available Pro tools.
 3. Open a media attachment’s details to download or replace that file.

## FAQ

### Does replacement change my file URL?

No. Replacement keeps the attachment ID and URL. The new file must have the same
type and extension. Clear any external page or image caches if they continue showing
an older image.

### Does exporting change my Media Library?

No. Export creates a downloadable ZIP; it does not remove attachments.

### Can Pro browse or sync my entire Google Drive?

No. You select files with Google Picker. A selected folder is an upload destination,
not permission to read all its children. Transfers are started by you; there is 
no background synchronization.

### What happens when I disconnect Google?

This WordPress user’s authorization stored by the WP Luna service, local connection,
chosen folder, and transfer history are removed. Existing files remain in WordPress
and Google Drive. Revoke the app in your Google Account connections if you also 
want to remove Google’s authorization.

Exactly what I was looking for. The ability to download images from the media library
with a simple download button. Worked as expected

Allows both downloading of individual media library items or the whole media library
as a ZIP file. Simple plugin that works.

The download feature is OK. You must click each individual image. You can't do a
bulk select and click a few at once for DL. But otherwise seems to work OK.

If you can't download media in bulk, the plugin is useless at all (you can download
each image opening it and saving it on your computer).
