FAQ

What does “Custom upload structure” mean?

The custom upload structure can be easily set in the media settings of the Pro version. Here is a little example how the WP standard upload looks like:
wp-content/uploads/2016/11/myimage-150×150.jpg
… and after you set a custom upload structure it can look like:
wp-content/uploads/2016/11/thumbnails/medium/myimage.jpg
