This plugin is useless—one thing doesn’t work, then another.Don’t waste your time downloading and installing it.Developer: Before you release a plugin to the community, test it thoroughly. A JavaScript error was fixed in version 1.4.4. I uploaded files by folder, but after refreshing the page, the results disappeared. Drag-and-drop doesn’t work; after dragging files into a folder, they’re not there. I uninstalled the plugin—I don’t want to put my website at risk or feel like I’m just a tester.
