Use pictures from WP/LR upload

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your Feedback!

Lightroom integration is something we had on our todo list from the beginning.

The plugin you mentioned looks pretty cool, but the way it works collides with one of picu’s principles:

picu images do not show up in the media library in the WordPress admin.

This is by design: We wanted to strictly separate the images that you use in a picu collection from the images you use on your website, thereby keeping you from accidentally using an image from a collection in a blog post or in your portfolio.

The media library would get completely crammed und confusing having hundreds or in some cases thousands of (temporary) images in there.

picu also cleans up behind itself: When you delete a collection all images are deleted from the server automatically. (You can see how using an image elsewhere on the site would become a problem here.)

But we also recognize that some of you have a workflow that requires collection images to be present in the media library, so we will take another look on how to make it work for everyone, with any kind of workflow, in the future.

I can’t give you an exact date at this point, but be assured, we are looking into it again soon.

Cheers
Florian

“Lightroom integration is something we had on our todo list from the beginning”

That would be very nice !

The add-on import will also help i think

Unfortunately we still cannot give you a fixed date for native LR integration, but we’re working on it!

The import add-on was released on picu.io in the meantime, if you want to check it out.

Great to hear ! I’am very happy with your plugin, just did read all the topics and the future developments are looking prommising !
I did post a direct message on Twitter yesterday.
Maybe you can look into this ?
The only problem i discovered was that my external SPAM fighter (and an other from my client (filtermail.eu) (i have my own webserver) did put the notification mails in SPAM quarantine. ([email protected]) I will buy the add-on’s but maybe you should make a donation button on your site for people who are using only the basis plugin. It os really very helpful !! Thanks !
