    Hi there and thanks for a nice product,

    I have a question – is it not possible to link the plugin to multiple buckets at one time? It seems silly that all uploads go into one bucket and hence does not take advantage of the bucket system on AWS S3 – or am I missing something?

    What would a workaround be?

    Thanks a lot.

    Best,
    Emil

    Hi Emil,

    What would be the use case for multiple buckets? I can maybe see the advantage on multisite installs so that each subsite has a separate bucket, but not for single site installs.

    Cheers,

    I got thousands of files that needs to be sorted somehow so they don’t all just line up in one big pool.

    I need to categorise them in different films each with different subfolders that will contain hundreds of files each.

    The interface of the plugin only seems to allow the path to be dynamic through date/year, but that will be kinda confusing.

    Maybe what I am searching for is not multiple buckets, but I need a way for the files to not automatically be pooled into the same folder but match an organised folder/bucket structure on AWS s3. I am new to all this, so perhaps i’m missing something 🙂

    Thanks for answering

    That makes perfect sense. We follow the default structure implemented by WordPress, which only organises files by year and month. There are plugins available which will allow you to organise the files locally, however this won’t be replicated on S3.

    There isn’t a way to achieve this at the moment, although we are introducing a filter in the next version which will allow you to modify the file paths during the upload process. But even then it’s going to be difficult to organise the files programatically.

    Could this new “filter” be used to customize the path in multisite to appear as the multisite name (or domain name of the mapping plugin) instead of say:

    http://domain.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2015/05/30154154/example.png

    it could look like this:
