Once images are migrated to dreamspeed, are they deleted off my dreamhost accoun

    I have a limited amount of storage on my dreamhost vps account, which is why i went chose to use DreamSpeed. I see that the plugin will copy files from when they are uploaded to the media gallery over to my DreamSpeed bucket, but it doesn’t say what happens to the original uploaded images.

    Are they kept on the host account, is it a cut and paste approach to put the files on dreamspeed (meaning they don’t stay on the host account they were uploaded to), or do they get deleted from the host account once they were copied to DreamSpeed? I hope that makes sense.

    They are not deleted from your install, they are copied.

    if i then delete it from the install on a monthly basis after they’ve been copied, will it also automatically remove it from the cdn? (so i don’t max out my install)

    As long as you don’t delete them from the media uploader, they will not be deleted from the CDN. That said, I cannot promise everything will run as you expect and I don’t recommend it.
