IMPORTANT

DO NOT DELETE PHOTOS OR ALBUMS on Google Photos. Instead, set visibility in the EGPS admin panel
Once you upload and arrange your photos into albums, please do not make any changes to their arrangement.

However, the gallery part of the plugin is free to use, allowing you to showcase your photos and albums on your website at no cost. The photo selling feature is optional and requires a subscription.
