In this video, which is the third in this small series, we're going to look at how to complete the configuration of wp2print with the credentials that were created on Amazon Web Services.
Come to the wp2print dashboard.
Scroll down to wp2print here in the settings.
Click on the file uploads and here you will see the different fields that need to be filled in.
We're simply going to go down the list and fill these in.
Firstly, we would like to set the file upload target to be Amazon S3.
When we created the IAM user on Amazon S3, remember that Amazon displayed for us the access key and the secret key, which we pasted here.
Simply paste those in their respective boxes.
Continue by pasting in the bucket name and select the region.
You are able to select any region with the exception of the US East, North Virginia one.
If you chose this region earlier, I recommend you keep this box on default V2 signature.
Next, we're going to create the path that is used to store the data on Amazon S3.
I think you will find it most convenient when you include both the date and the username there.
Whether you put it in this order or that order is completely up to you.
Leave the file access as private.
And finally, you're going to configure the maximum size of the file in megabytes that you want to accept.
In this case, we're going to set it at 500.
Simply save the settings and you are finished.
Your wp2print system should now be configured to upload files to your new bucket on Amazon S3.
