 * Having a hard time with the whole folder thing in my FTP. Before i knew that 
   you could change how wordpress puts you images into a folder depending on the
   month/year, all my images are in different folders. Is there a way for me to 
   manually tell wordpress or elementor where to go look for these images,because
   even after i delete them in the unwanted folder and put them in the folder that
   they belong in, wordpress still looks in the old folder. Someone please help,
   Driving me Bonkers.
 * Thx Tyler

 * moving files does not inform the database.
 * Use the plugin “add from server” to update WP’s database and import files uploaded
   via FTP.
