I was in need of a way to migrate a very large media library (more than 40k media files) to blob storage.
I love your plugin but it was lacking a way to handle existing media content. So I have created a wordpress plugin as a companion plugin to this one. It allows existing sites to migrate there existing media files to the blob storage using this plugins functions.

I have not published the plugin yet but wanted to reach out first about the possibility of integrating it into this plugin.

You can view my repo at Microsoft Azure Storage Migration for WordPress

If this is not a feature you are interesting adding to the existing plugin I will proceed with getting it published.

The plugin I have written checks first that your plugin is installed and active as it is using your function to move the files.

Thanks!

I was thinking this the first time I used it but only had a few files I needed to process so I did it manually with filezilla pro to move the files to Blob storage and HeidiSQL to add the media data. It was not till I had the impossible task of importing 40k in media files that it was easier to build the plugin them do it manually.
