Hello/Hi/Greetings,

I'm a brand new piwigo user, trying to see if it will do what I need.

Basically, I have a variety of automated processes that pull files in from my various servers (as they get created) and deposit them on my web server. I then want to get those files transferred into piwigo.

It looks like my only option is to do a bunch of pre-processing on the files to generate thumbnails and such before moving them into a folder where I can then do the synch from piwigo.  Is that right?  There's no way to tell piwigo "load these images from a folder already on the server"?

Piwigo version: 2.7.4
PHP version: 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.11
MySQL version: 5.5.44-0ubuntu0.14.04.1
Piwigo URL: http://home.sc3.net/photos

Thanks,
Chris
