I am fairly new to php development in WordPress.
I am using Next-gen gallery plugin. Its a nice plugin but I am facing difficulty in finding a way to upload images to the blob storage in windows azure.
Currently the storage space is an issue as there are alot of images in the gallery and it effects the web server performance in keeping the images in web server.
Windows azure blob storage plugin is activated on the wordpress website and all the images in the media gallery are uploaded into the blob.
The nextgen gallery media library addon is also activated but when I try to add image from media library into nextgen gallery, It copies the image into the wp-content/gallery/{gallery name} on the webserver.
Search on the internet has not brought any satisfying answers to me. May be some one out there has some brilliant solution to this.
I am using WordPress 3.8.1 on windows azure.

So I know it's possible to grab images from Azure blob storage and getting all the links, but would it be possible to retrieve all the images and upload them to WordPress Media Library?
You might want to try doing a quick search online before posting here, but yes I believe this should be possible.
Assuming you already have your images in Azure
get the Windows Azure Storage for WordPress Plugin
grab the access key from Azure, you can find this under Azure Storage Account’s Settings > Access Keys blade)
in WordPress settings, under Windows Azure, put in the Azure credentials you just grabbed
create a new container in WordPress, and select 'Use Windows Azure Storage when uploading via WordPress’
now that you have the plugin installed and configured you should be able to once in the WordPress Edit screen you can just go Add Media button > Insert Media > U[load Files tab and you'll be able to now point to Azure Blob Storage and grab images
I have a classified website pkwhistle.com that is leading multiple countries and has a huge collection of images media. Is there any way to store newly uploaded listing images automatically store outside WordPress and fetch back to my site. clasificadospr.com is the best example of my idea. Because this website is using service which I am actually asking about. It's using the "thumbor" service. Please help me in this matter so I can increase the speed of my website. More than 10thousand images on a website can kill speed.
Well, it's called hosting/loading your images from a CDN, and there are many providers that work nicely with Wordpress!
With 10.000 images you mostly end up with a premium solution such as WP offload Media from Deliciousbrains (highly recommended and I am not in any way affiliated to them, just love their products). They also have a free version.
You can hook it up with all the big assets storage providers (digitalOcean Spaces, Amazon's AWS)
And integration with WP is great, it syncs between the CDN and your Wordpress Library.
Alternatively, there are some free options, you can use photon from Wordpress, it does almost the same, but hosted on photon's servers. It comes with the Jetpack plugin.
Another free option is Cloudinary (they have a plugin as well). But it has a limited free plan.
Good luck!
I am newbie on Wordpress. I have just started blogs -
finkomist.info
I have developed this as responsive site.
If you notice the only post I have, it has image. This is seen on computer, but on mobile device this image is disappeared.
I have used theme - simplified blog.
Could someone help me understand the changes in the settings if images needs to be Response sensitive ?
i cannot see any images on your website even in computer. try re-uploading all the images & make sure to insert them into the post using editor.
I am wondering whether it is possible to create a wordpress app which links to the current wordpress site so the blogs will all be present on the new app. And whether it is possible to do this with minimal / no code involved.
Yes, this is possible there is a plugin available in WordPress which can convert your WordPress site into a native mobile app for iOS and Android phones and tablets, published to App Store and Google Play for you.

Recently started using Google Cloud platform bucket to store all my wordpress images. As many of you know wordpress creates many thumbnails from the original image that was uploaded.
I have been able to link the image from the google bucket to wordpress. But from time to time I update the image. I thought it would have automatically updated the thumbnails as well. But this is not the case.
Scenario - I upload main image into wordpress media library. It creates two other images plus original eg Image.jpg; Image-510x383.jpg; Image-115x85.jpg
Only the Image.jpg is visible in the Google Bucket. Should I reupload the image with a change using gsutil. The main full scale image changes on wordpress live site but the thumbnails remain the old versions.
How do you find were these thumbnailed images are in Google bucket so I can resync them easily as well.
Thanks for any assistance.
Check out the WP-Stateless plugin - it's free. https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-stateless/
It will manage the process of uploading your images and other files (PDFs, MP3s, etc) to Google Cloud Storage, including all the thumbnails WordPress generates. It supports several modes, including a mode that will delete the local file since it is no longer needed.
