 * Does this automatically detect the images in the medial library and update the
   slideshow? Or do the images need to be manually added or deleted from the slideshow?

 * Hi [@tonyghaffari](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tonyghaffari/)! 
   No, if
   you add new images to the media library, this plugin won’t automatically add 
   them to one of your galleries and then open them in the lightbox. You’d need 
   to manually add them to each gallery or slideshow.
 * One way to think about this is that our plugin doesn’t create or add, say, a 
   gallery of images. Those galleries/images are added via a range of methods: the
   block editor (image or gallery block); plugins like Elementor, NextGEN Gallery,
   or Modula; or even via HTML. So our plugin doesn’t control which images are in
   a gallery at all.
 * Our plugin just ensures that when you click on those images, they open in a large,
   nice, consistent lightbox, and also adds functionality to that lightbox once 
   open.
 * Let me know if you have other question!
   Since the original question is answered
   clearly (even if not the answer you may want), I’m going to mark this resolved.
   But please feel free to follow up!
