How to use WP2Cloud when you cannot modify MySQL installation?
A number of users, who would like to use cloud storage for storing and serving media files, reached out to us with this question. Typically users run into this limitation due to the lack of permissions in shared hosting environments or when they have to deal with older versions of MySQL.
We decided to go ahead and unblock these users by enabling support for Media Server-based configuration. WP2Cloud plugin now can be configured to use a separate database server to handle upload files.
For more details please follow Advanced deployment configuration with Media Server section of WP2Cloud install instructions.
