This plugin is really useful when using wp real media library toghether with acf. The latest version (1.1.2) works perfect.

Refund policy all but not user friendly

Bought this plugin hoping that it can manage files on the server physically, as the "REAL" in the name name sugests. It was not clear to me when I read the description. The GUI is pretty nice but the file management is purely virtual what means that in fact all files stored reside in native WP directories, eg. 2017/05. I removed the plugin from the server and tried to get refeund for my purchase. My request was withdrawn. It is a strange policy since you cannot even test the plugin within your own environment. Other developers give you at least 8 days to test the full version of a plugin before purchase.
