We've long wanted a way to utilise a CDN to offload images/files/videos from ProcessWire sites without losing all the native greatness of ProcessWire image and file field types. Having read various discussions on here about ways to approach this that never seemed to reach conclusion, I've thrown myself into creating a module that allows offloading of files to Bunny.net CDN as we need a solution for a specific project. I think this would be easily adaptable to any S3 compatible CDN but I've only tested on Bunny. ⚠️ This is still very beta! Use at your own risk! I've been conducting basic testing and so far, so good but there's bound to be holes or things that others may suggest better ways of doing. But I'm now at a stage where the insight/experience of the PW community might add value to the project - so I'm sharing now! Full disclosure: Once past the initial project scaffolding I've been using AI/careful prompting to write some of the code so that I can arrive at a prototype as quickly as possible. This seems to have worked well, although some of the code looks a little verbose and could probably be refactored later on. Also not security/pen-tested yet. https://github.com/warp-design/WireBunnyCdn/ Features: Automatically uploads images to Bunny storage on page save, including all variants and mirrors assets folder structure for simple merging back to local at a later date if needed. Automatically cleanses deleted files (or files from deleted pages) from your CDN. Option to mirror files to CDN or delete local copies (this is the main aim for me, otherwise we could just use ProCache). Handles (basic currently) image sizing - either using standard ProcessWire `$image->size(X,X)` methods or by implementing Bunny Optimizer for sizing using URL params. Rewrites image paths via CDN so that you can use standard `$page->imageField->url` calls with the output being a Bunny path rather than local PW path. Also handles the image previews in admin view. Roadmap: Support for video uploads (with optional separate CDN endpoint for Bunny Stream buckets). Support for front-end video output to templates using Bunny stream players/optimisation etc. Implement chunked/background uploads for large files. Support for other size() method options, like cropping etc and mapping to Bunny Optimizer equivalents. Anyway - look forward to hearing any advice/feedback/bug reports... I'm sure there's many!

With new version 1.0.4 it is possible now to set multiple Stripe API Keys in the modules config. This is especially useful for testing. Unfortunatly the module still has the "pending" status, so you will not be able to upgrade via the backend. See:

I'm a little embarrassed to admit that after several years of working in PW I still don't "get" output formatting in the context of saving pages and fields. I understand that when I get the value of a field it is automatically formatted when output formatting is on, and that I can switch this off to get the unformatted value. What I don't understand is why I need to turn off output formatting when I am saving a new value to a page. It's output formatting, not input formatting, right? Even more befuddling to me is the fact that this often results in a fatal error if I forget to do it, crashing my site. I also have to remember to turn it back on again afterwords, or else I can introduce security flaws into my code. I'm sure Ryan must have a reason for requiring switching output formatting off when doing a save, but if this is so important and is always required, why isn't it just baked right into the save() method? I know the new setAndSave() method now does this for individual fields. It would be great to have a similar method when saving an entire Page.
