Media Bulk Download

Tired of downloading your WordPress media files one by one?

Media Bulk Download lets you select any number of files in your Media Library and download them as a single ZIP file — instantly, directly in your browser. No FTP, no hosting panel, no extra tools.

What it does

• Works in both Grid view and List view of the Media Library
• Adds a “Download as ZIP” bulk action to the List view
• Adds a “Download as ZIP” toolbar button to the Grid view
• Handles images, PDFs, videos, audio, documents — any file in your library
• Secure: every request uses nonce verification and capability checks
• Lightweight: assets load only on the Media Library screen, nowhere else

Perfect for

• Sending a client their project photos in one go
• Archiving old uploads before a site migration
• Backing up a folder of product images
• Moving media from one site to another

Free version limits

The free version includes fair-use limits to keep the plugin stable for everyone:

• Up to 20 files per ZIP
• 10 ZIPs per day per user
• 1-minute cooldown between downloads
• Flat ZIP structure (files are not organised into subfolders)
• No metadata export

Upgrade to Pro
