MediaPress - Upload Terms of Service
This WordPress plugin adds a terms of service step to media uploads on sites that run MediaPress. Before a member can submit a photo, video or other file, they have to agree to the upload terms you write, so your rules are clear from the start.

What it does
Community sites that let members upload media face a familiar problem: people share files without knowing what the site allows. That can lead to inappropriate content, copyright trouble or uploads that simply do not fit the community. This add-on asks every user to accept your upload terms before their media goes through, so the guidelines are in front of them at the moment it matters.
It works with MediaPress and BuddyPress, and it fits into the existing upload flow instead of adding a separate process. You write and edit the terms from the admin side, and members see them in a clear consent prompt. Because users have to agree before uploading, you also keep a record that they accepted your policies, which is useful when you need to point back to the rules.
Best for
- BuddyPress communities that accept member photo and video uploads
- MediaPress galleries that need clear content rules
- Site owners who want recorded consent for user uploads
Features
Custom upload terms
Write your own terms of service for media uploads and change them whenever your content policies change, so members always see the current rules.
Required agreement before upload
Users must accept the terms before they can submit any media, which makes your guidelines a firm part of the upload step.
Works with MediaPress and BuddyPress
Designed for sites built on MediaPress and BuddyPress, adding the terms step without breaking the normal media upload workflow.
Clear consent prompt
Terms appear in a readable, accessible format so members can understand what they are agreeing to before they share files.
Admin panel management
Set up and update upload terms from an admin panel, keeping policy changes simple for site administrators.
Documented user consent
