GuardaFoto adds a simple, free photo lookup tool to any post or page. A visitor pastes a supported public link, and the tool displays the image together with every verified downloadable size returned by the GuardaFoto service.<\/p>\n\n
Supported lookups include:<\/p>\n\n
Add the tool with the GuardaFoto<\/strong> block or with this shortcode:<\/p>\n\n To force a language for one shortcode instance, use:<\/p>\n\n or:<\/p>\n\n With New in 1.1.0 \u2014 GuardaFoto inside your dashboard and your editor.<\/strong> The same lookup is now available where you work:<\/p>\n\n The plugin adds no visible credit and no external links to the front end, and it makes no external request when it is activated or when a page is merely viewed. The external lookup described below happens only after a visitor submits a link in the tool, or after an administrator submits one in the dashboard page, the editor panel or the classic meta box.<\/p>\n\n The photographs and artwork belong to their respective owners. This plugin only helps visitors access images that the relevant platform already publishes publicly; it does not grant any licence or right to reuse an image.<\/p>\n\n This plugin relies on the GuardaFoto API, a third-party service operated by A3Q Global:<\/p>\n\n When a visitor enters a link and presses the tool's button, the visitor's browser sends only the URL that the visitor pasted<\/strong> to the GuardaFoto API so that it can be resolved. The plugin does not send WordPress user data, site data, cookies, post content or administrator information to GuardaFoto. GuardaFoto resolves supported links against the public information made available by the relevant platform and returns the image name, type and public image URLs.<\/p>\n\n The dashboard tool introduced in 1.1.0 (the GuardaFoto admin page, the block-editor panel and the classic-editor meta box) uses the same API the same way: when an administrator pastes a link there and runs the lookup, the WordPress server sends only that pasted URL<\/strong> to the same endpoint and shows the result. Nothing is sent while pages are viewed or edited.<\/p>\n\n One action goes one step further, and only when the administrator explicitly clicks it: Import<\/strong>. On an import click \u2014 including \"set as featured image\" and \"insert into content\" \u2014 the WordPress server downloads the image file the administrator selected, from the public platform URL that the API returned, and stores it in the site's own Media Library as a regular attachment, exactly like an upload made by hand. The plugin never downloads code or executable files, and it never imports anything on its own: no click, no download.<\/p>\n\n Use of the images and destination services remains subject to the applicable platform terms, including:<\/p>\n\n No account, API key or configuration is required.<\/p>\n\n\n Public YouTube channel and video links, Spotify artist, album, track, playlist, show and episode links, Deezer artist, album, track and playlist links, and Apple Music album and song links are supported. TikTok profile and video links and Instagram post and reel links also work \u2014 for those, the tool lists the downloadable video next to the photo or cover. Instagram profile photos cannot be fetched: Meta shows them only to logged-in accounts. A private, deleted or otherwise unavailable item cannot be resolved.<\/p><\/dd>\n It displays the real image sizes returned by the GuardaFoto API. The largest available size depends on what the source platform publishes. For example, a YouTube video may not have an HD thumbnail, while a channel profile photo may be available up to 1600 x 1600.<\/p><\/dd>\n Not on its own. The front-end tool stores nothing in the WordPress database and does not save the submitted link or the returned images on the WordPress server. The dashboard tools save nothing either \u2014 unless an administrator clicks Import<\/strong> for a photo, in which case WordPress downloads that one file and keeps it in the Media Library as a normal attachment, under the administrator's control. Submitted links are never stored.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes \u2014 that is what the dashboard side of the plugin is for. Open the GuardaFoto<\/strong> menu, paste a link, and each photo offers Download<\/strong> and Import to Media Library<\/strong>. While you edit a post, the GuardaFoto panel (block editor) or meta box (classic editor) adds two more actions per photo: Import & set as featured image<\/strong> and Import & insert into content<\/strong>. Videos stay download-only: this version does not import videos into the Media Library.<\/p><\/dd>\n Some public platform pages and image variants cannot be resolved reliably from a visitor's browser alone. GuardaFoto's API performs that lookup centrally, so this plugin stays small and does not need to scrape or connect directly to each platform from WordPress.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. Each shortcode or block instance works independently. The CSS and JavaScript are loaded only on pages where an instance is rendered.<\/p><\/dd>\n The channel, artist, label, photographer or other original rights holder. GuardaFoto and this plugin do not claim ownership and do not grant reuse rights. Obtain permission from the owner before using an image publicly or commercially.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n[guardafoto]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n[guardafoto lang=\"es\"]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n[guardafoto lang=\"en\"]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\nlang=\"auto\"<\/code>, or when no language is supplied, GuardaFoto uses Spanish for Spanish WordPress locales and English otherwise. Since 1.1.1 the whole plugin interface \u2014 the front-end tool, the dashboard page, the block-editor panel and the classic-editor meta box \u2014 is fully translated through the standard WordPress i18n system (text domain guardafoto<\/code>), shipping with a complete Spanish translation that follows the site's language automatically.<\/p>\n\n\n
