OBRIGADO!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH

Thanks a LOT!
Obrigado demais!!! Quando subimos arquivos por FTP o Word Press não registra isso na base e não conseguimos pesquisar esses arquivos na parte Mídia dentro do WP. Preciso subir arquivos pelo FTP pois são muito grandes, 300/400 MB e pelo uploader do WP não funciona. Com esse plugin você consegue mapear todos os arquivos que subiram via FTP para que ele fique visível na parte MIDIA do WP. Exatamente isso que eu estava precisando!

Sucessso! Success!
Obrigado!
