A place to talk about WordPress the open source content management system. Also a place to ask for help with WordPress. Don't be rude, don't spam.

I check this once a week, so if you don't hear from me hit me up on Mastodon (phillycodehound@indieweb.social)

I've been a bit short sighted. I set up my WordPress instance on a server with... Not a huge amount of space. A year or so later, and now I'm running out. I have another server which I could serve files from, and it's got loads of space. Is there a way that I could get the Wordpress media library to just... Serve and upload from that one instead? Preferably migrate it there as well.

Too many people I find online get some sort of yuppie answer like an expensive plug-in with an Amazon CDN subscription. I just want to homebrew this. I don't intend to host the major site assets for the site structure on it, and I'm fine with images taking a little longer to load.
