them for post/product featured image, WooCommerce product gallery… or everywhere

### Preview EXMAGE – WordPress Image Links

### How to install and use the plugin

### Important Notice:

 * This plugin only supports real image URLs that have correct image mime type. 
   It does not support image URLs from an image hosting service(such as Flickr, 
   Imgur, Photobucket …) or a file storage service(such as Google drive)
 * External images added by this plugin will no longer work if the plugin is not
   active

### FEATURES

 * Ability to add single image URL on Upload files tab of the Media library
 * Ability to add multiple image URLs at once on below the File upload on Upload
   New Media page
 * External images have an icon to distinguish them from normal attachments.
 * External images also have attachment ID like normal attachments so that you can
   use them wherever that allows to insert images from Media library such as Post/
   Product featured image, product gallery images, variation image, product category
   image…
 * Compatible with ALD plugin: when this plugin is active, there will be an option
   named “Use external links for images” in the ALD plugin settings/Products. By
   enabling this option, AliExpress products imported by ALD plugin will use original
   AliExpress image URLs for product featured images, gallery images and variation
   images instead of saving images to your server.

This plugin essentially fulfilled every need that I had for using external images
within WordPress (including WooCommerce). It provides a really helpful and easy-
to-use method for adding external images programmatically. Kudos to the developers!

Es el mejor plugin para añadir imagenes externas, pemite subir un link o muchos 
al mismo tiempo, colocando las imágenes en la galería lista para ser vinculadas 
a cualquier publicación.
