    Hey guys,

    I was wondering, as my site has some posts from other people that use images from their own sites, if there was a way to, when the posts are published, upload the images in the post, and also update the url in the html of it.

    I know it sounds like a lot, but my site load time is quite large and I am finding ways in which to speed it up a bit.

    Hope somebody can help!

    Manually you can right click the images and save them on your computer and then upload them to Word Press via the dashboard media radio button.
    They end up at
    http://yourblog address.com/wp-content/uploads/imagename.jpgorgiforpng/
    Enter that into the blog post ‘edit’ to replace theirs with:

    <img src=”http://yourblogname.com/wp-content/uploads/imagename.jpg&gt;
    as above.

    You can either resize them on your computer using Irfanview or add attributes to the <–> above such as width=”” height=”” vspace=”” hspace=”” align top,bottom,left,right etc.(sizes in px)

    Oh no, I know about all of that, I made most of my website from scratch using WordPress as the base maker, I was just wondering if there was a way to make it more automatic as these posts that people submit have like 20-50 images per post and I didn’t want to spend tons of time doing this myself.

    If anybody knows of a way, please inform me!

    Sounds like you’re looking for some sort of image scraper. I suppose it might be possible to build something with cUrl but I’ve not seen a plugin like this myself.

    Yeh, that’s it, I’ve been looking everywhere, if there is any chance you could do something like it, that would be great. Thanks.
