@WordPressHeavyUser The simplest solution is that you could give https://wordpress.org/plugins/amazon-s3-and-cloudfront/ a try. It supports DO Spaces and will allow you to offload your media by just uploading them to the native WordPress Media Library.

It may not offer all you need, but would at least let you do the first point you mentioned with ease.

Hi there,

Thank you. But here I want a top-notch solution not a compromise of what is just easy. If I upload first to WordPress - I am not using all the benefits of Digital Download Spaces. Also my website will need 2 x CPU and processing power, first to upload to WordPress, then to Digital Ocean. I am ready to develop something very tailor-made. I am not looking for standard software.

Hello, @WordPressHeavyUser

We already have a really cool tutorial on how to setup this. You can check it out here:

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-store-wordpress-assets-on-digitalocean-spaces

In this tutorial, we will use a WordPress plugin that works directly with DigitalOcean Spaces to use it as the primary asset store. The DigitalOcean Spaces Sync plugin routes the data of our WordPress media library to Spaces and provides you with various configuration options based on your needs, streamlining the process of using object storage with your WordPress instance.

Hope that helps!

Regards,
Alex
