Devenia Replace Media lets you replace any media file in WordPress while keeping the original URL intact. Useful for updating images without changing links.

Key Features

  • Keep Your URLs – Replace the file while keeping the URL, helping avoid broken links.
  • Works Everywhere – Media Library list view, Elementor gallery editor, and standard WordPress media modals.
  • Preserves Metadata – Captions, alt text, titles, and descriptions stay intact.
  • Automatic Cache Busting – Appends a version parameter after replacement, which can help browsers and CDNs fetch the updated file.
  • Regenerates Thumbnails – All image sizes are automatically regenerated after replacement.
  • Simple Interface – Just click “Replace File”, upload your new file, done.

Where It Works

  • Media Library – “Replace File” link appears in the list view actions
  • Elementor Gallery Editor – Blue “Replace File” button in attachment details
  • WordPress Media Modal – Works in the standard media selector used by Gutenberg and Classic Editor

Use Cases

  • Update product images without changing URLs
  • Fix typos in PDFs or documents
  • Replace outdated screenshots

Why Cache Busting Matters

When you replace an image, browsers may show an older cached version. This plugin appends a version parameter to image URLs after replacement to help caches fetch the updated file.
