Great plugin, fantastic support
The combination of WP/LR Sync, Real Media Library and WP/LR Sync Folder (this plugin) is the best ecosystem for Lightroom that I've user so far. This plugin, as others developed by MatthiasWeb, also has outstanding support.

Really great tool
I have been using the tool for month now. It saved me a lot of time organizing my crowing amoount of pictures. The support is perfect, thanks for that.

Real Media Library works perfectly...
don't want to miss. The user interface is very nice and functionality is perfect, especially the possible connectivity with LR/WP plugin through the plugin wplr-sync-folders and with Justify Image Grid. For Lightroom users a dream team. Very fast support if needed. So highly recommended.

Brilliant for organising
Have to say a big thanks to the creator of the range of plugins and connectivity between LR and wordpress. Huge time saver and allows me to work in a more professional way with the CMS, easily finding images I am looking for and super easy to get it up on mywebsite. Top marks
