 * Hi
 * I just downloaded and installed the plugin. I uploaded a .jpg to my uploads folder
   and noticed that the thumbnails were not created (they are created when using
   the WP-integrated media gallery).
 * What do i have to do to make it work with the file-manager plugin?
 * Best,
    Thomas

 * You want to see your images on the media library, you have to upload it through
   media library. File manager wont work that way.
 * You can try media import-export plugins to export import media.

 * Hi
 * Don’t you think this would be a nice feature?
 * Additioinally, when you move images that have generated thumbnails, are they 
   moved as well?
 * Best,
    Thomas
