Slider from photos in a folder outside of the WordPress installation

Hi, I’m moving my site from Joomla to WordPress, and I need to create slider slide shows from folders already in my hosting account, but not in the WordPress folders. Your plugin seems to fit the bill, all I do is add the shortcode pointing to the folder, and the plugin displays the photos from the folder in a slider. I have added the full URL of the folder, but I get an error message that the plugin can’t find the folder. Is there a way this plugin can work the way I need it to?

Thanks for your plugin, and for any help you can provide.
