Simple Asset URL

A Better Asset Workflow for Developers

The WordPress Media Library was never designed for theme assets. Logos, icons, UI graphics, and layout images don’t belong in a global upload pile.

Simple Asset URL restores a clean, predictable workflow: assets live in your theme, and you reference them directly—just like modern web development expects.

Drop Files. Reference Them Instantly.

Place images, CSS, or other static files in your theme’s /assets/ directory and reference them immediately.

  • No uploads
  • No renaming
  • No Media Library clutter

Your folder structure stays intact and readable.

Child-Theme Safe by Design

The plugin automatically detects the active theme context.

  • Checks the child theme first
  • Falls back to the parent theme when needed
  • No hard-coded paths or fragile assumptions

This makes it ideal for long-lived projects and theme customization.

Built-In Responsive Image Support

Modern image delivery is a first-class feature—not an afterthought.

  • Pattern-based srcset generation
  • <picture> element support via shortcodes
  • Explicit width control for predictable output

You control naming, formats, and breakpoints.

Works Where You Work

Use Simple Asset URL wherever it makes sense:

  • Template files via PHP helper functions
  • Posts and pages via shortcodes
  • Gutenberg via purpose-built blocks

It integrates cleanly without forcing a new workflow.

Media Library Friendly (When You Need It)

This plugin doesn’t replace the Media Library—it complements it.

  • Reference uploaded media by ID when appropriate
  • Use theme assets for design and layout
  • Use Media Library for user-generated content

The separation stays clear and intentional.

Lightweight, Secure, and Predictable

  • Strict path sanitization
  • Serves files only from approved theme directories
  • No external requests or tracking
  • No dependencies or runtime overhead

Simple Asset URL does one thing well. It gets out of your way and lets you build.

✓ Real Technical Support

Support From People Who Understand the Code

Ever contact support and immediately know you're talking to someone reading a script? Someone who's never actually used the product? Yeah, we hate that too.

M Media support means talking to developers who wrote the code, understand the edge cases, and have probably hit the same problem you're dealing with. No ticket escalation theatrics. No "have you tried restarting?" when your question is clearly technical.

Documentation written by people who got stuck first. Support from people who fixed it.

We don't outsource support to the lowest bidder or train AI on canned responses. When you ask a question, you get an answer from someone who can actually read the logs, check the source code, and explain what's happening under the hood.

Real troubleshooting, not corporate scripts
