Two Plugins for Directly Copying and Pasting Images to Upload to WordPress

When publishing posts using the WordPress Admin Dashboard, we often need to upload images. If it directly supports pasting content from the clipboard into the post content, eliminating the need for manual uploads, it can be very convenient in certain situations, such as directly copying and pasting content from Word into a blog post. In this article, Naiba shares two plugins that allow you to directly copy and paste images for upload to the website backend.

Plugin One: OnePress Image Elevator

Image Elevator allows you to paste images directly from the clipboard into the post content. You can take screenshots while writing your post and then simply press CTRL + V to paste them into WordPress, which is very fast and convenient. This plugin comes in both a premium version and a free version; the premium version also offers image compression and renaming features.Download Link

Plugin Two: The Paste

The functionality of The Paste is the same as the Image Elevator mentioned above, except that The Paste is an open-source, free WordPress plugin. It also supports directly copying and pasting images into the post content and is compatible with Chrome, Firefox, IE, Edge, and Safari browsers.Download LinkBoth of these plugins have not been updated for some time, but Naiba tested them in WP 5.3.2 and they work normally. However, in practice, you can also simply drag and drop images into the post to upload them, which is not troublesome either. Images from the clipboard may be quite large, and if not compressed, they could slow down the website's loading speed.
