How to Use with Network Media Library
If you are using the Network Media Library plugin, and already have subdomains/subdirectories built in multisite with uploaded media, you’ll need to follow a few extra steps to make sure all media is cloned correctly:
- Disable Network Media Library
- Go to the sub-sites individually and open the media libraries
- Make note of which media was uploaded to that sub-site
- Upload this media to the source site that you plan to use
- If cloning over an existing site, remove ALL media from the target site(s) media
- Clone new site or over existing site with ‘copy media’ setting unchecked
- Re-enable Network Media Library
New uploads should always be done through the media library from the dashboard.
