Indespensable

Media management in WordPress is probably one of the weakest links out of the box. This plug-in is actually everything you need in order to bridge that gap. Found it super useful for:

– managing photos by adding them into collections on LR side and then publishing out of the app…

– … the LR collection information is available to you on WP media selection screen on WP side – HUGE. No longer sorting through the ‘all images’ page. This latter ‘Explorer’ feature needs to be enabled manually, so make sure you do that

– easy update of all image parameters – after image has been edited in LR, it’s title changed, caption – easy, always keeps your images up-to-date

– mass update of images – I had to replace all my photos on site to make them smaller in size –?changed jpg quality on publish service and pressed a button to republish all, piece of cake

– plugin respects virtual copies of images. That way I can keep 2 different variants of the image on my site for different purposes (the latter may be of higher resolution or quality – for headers). No problem. You would need to create another Publish Service with modified export resolution in order to separate them

– I am using multiple catalogs (I have over 200k of images across multiple areas) and the plugin does well. I know this is an unsupported feature but so far, no issues

Again, this is a solid piece of code. Can’t go wrong.
