 * Found an older post, from member [@theavgs](https://wordpress.org/support/users/theavgs/)
   that created a plugin that works off of a double page refresh.

 * I am not really sure if this will work for me, but at least it is a “proof of
   concept”
 * Anyone with another solution or suggestions on where to start?

 * [@theavgs](https://wordpress.org/support/users/theavgs/) I am looking for a similar
   solution. Not sure if the page refresh version would work for me, but would love
   to see how it was accomplished to possibly fork.

 * Just want to expand on this:
 * > This would be a KILLER feature to add to the new pro mode. Have a check box
   > or be able to set a time period to have a gallery run an automatic updater.
 * After creating a gallery, have an option like this:
    Automatically scan and add
   new images to gallery – _yes / no_ If yes Setup time to scan from mm:dd:yyyy 
   hh:mm to mm:dd:yyyy hh:mm During this time, Generate thumbnails? _Yes / no_
