  Can you add Google Drive to the media drop-down for uploading media to your posts? What is the easiest way to upload your photos and videos from Google Drive to your WordPress site? If there isn’t an easy way – I feel that this will be a dealbreaker for us. Is there a plug-in? Is there a non-time-consuming way? I tried adding via a URL link to a folder in my Google Drive but it didn’t work. It said that the file was unsupported. We have no control over how the photos are saved on our drive. Is WordPress.com just not compatible with Google Drive? Thanks

  Thanks Staartmees but that is for Google photos account not Google Drive? I’m asking about photos and media stored in our school’s Google Drive. Is it as simple?

  To integrate Google Drive it looks like you have to upgrade to a business plan too – can’t do it for free? sigh
