Known Issues

Storage Account Versions

Storage accounts can be created via CLI, classic Azure portal, or the new Azure portal, with varying results.

If a Storage account is created with the new Azure portal, authentication will fail, resulting in the inability to view/add containers or files. Creating a Storage account with the Azure CLI should allow the plugin to work with new Storage accounts.

Responsive Images in WordPress 4.4

Images uploaded to the Azure Storage service will not automatically receive responsive versions. Images added through the WordPress Media Loader should get automatically converted to responsive images when inserted into a post or page. We are investigating options for full support of responsive images in the plugin.
