Azure Storage URL Issue
-
With the Windows Azure Storage Plugin, you can no longer link to a file in WordPress that is not in blob storage. I uploaded some large files via FTP (and used another plugin to get them added to my Media Library) and when I use Add Media – Insert Into Post, the URL gets added correctly. But when the post is saved, the URL get’s replaced with the Blob Storage URL (or CNAME if it is set for CDN) so the link ends up broken.
so if I build a post with a link like this:
<a href="https://www.mywebsite.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/archive.zip">Archive Link</a>
On saving the post, it gets updated to:
<a href="https://blahblahblah.blob.core.windows.net/containername/2014/11/archive.zip">Archive Link</a>
which doesn’t work because the file is not in azure blob storage (it was too large and would not upload through wp admin)
