Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Sync media with AWS S3 CloudFront

"Test link to AWS" checks the configured bucket with GetBucketLocation and verifies that its region matches Location. It requires s3:GetBucketLocation on that bucket (for example, arn:aws:s3:::your-bucket), not s3:ListAllMyBuckets. When CloudFront is enabled, it also requires cloudfront:GetDistribution for the configured distribution. The test does not upload or delete objects and does not check upload/delete permissions or public access to file URLs. Other plugin operations require their own permissions. The test works without the PHP gettext extension.

Only files registered for the current bucket and S3 prefix receive remote URLs. WordPress attachment, image src/srcset and rendered img/picture HTML are supported, including common lazy-load attributes in posts and templates. Each thumbnail is checked separately. Stored post content is not modified. Existing page caches must be cleared separately; images inserted by JavaScript after the response require a separate integration.

CloudFront No uses direct S3 URLs for registered files. The plugin does not generate signed URLs or change bucket access policies. If the bucket permits access only through CloudFront, keep CloudFront enabled; anonymous direct S3 URLs will not be accessible.

Another plugin that loads different versions of the same AWS SDK or its dependencies can cause class conflicts. This plugin includes its SDK and loads it once; avoid replacing individual SDK files.

Supported image extensions are gif, png, jpg, jpeg, svg and webp. The uploader also supports CSS and JavaScript when those file types are included in the saved configuration. PDF, video and ZIP files are not upload candidates and do not receive remote URLs without a registry entry.
