wp_get_original_image_path( int $attachment_id, bool $unfiltered = false )

Retrieves the path to an uploaded image file.

Description

Similar to get_attached_file() however some images may have been processed after uploading to make them suitable for web use. In this case the attached "full" size file is usually replaced with a scaled down version of the original image. This function always returns the path to the originally uploaded image file.

Parameters

$attachment_id

(int) (Required) Attachment ID.

$unfiltered

(bool) (Optional) Passed through to get_attached_file().

Default value: false

Return

(string|false) Path to the original image file or false if the attachment is not an image.
