Recently, we checked the image upload of bbpress pro, a plug-in that adds image upload function to bbpress forum. Save the forum image in the system folder of WordPress server. This is an excellent operation, but if a large forum uploads files from more users, it will put pressure on server space and resources.

This is not only very fast, but also saves server storage space and resources, which can be used for other purposes.
