"Add From Server" is a quick plugin which allows you to import media & files into the WordPress uploads manager from the Webservers filesystem

== Description ==

The heart of a CMS is the ability to upload and insert content, WordPress does a fantastic job at this, unfortunately, some web hosts have limited servers, or users simply do not have the ability to upload large files through their web browser.
Add From Server is designed to help ease this pain, You can upload a bunch of files via FTP (Or your favourite transmission method) and simply import those files from the webserver directly into WordPress.

== FAQ ==

= What placeholders can I use in the Root path option? =
You can use `%role%` and `%username%` only.
In the case of `%role%`, the first role which the user has is used, this can mean that in complex installs where a user has many roles that using %role% could be unreliable.

= Why does the file I want to import have a red background? =
WordPress only allows the importing/uploading of certain file types to improve your security.
If you wish to add extra file types, you can use a plugin such as: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/pjw-mime-config/ You can also enable "Unfiltered uploads" globally for WordPress if you'd like to override this security function. Please see the WordPress support forum for details.

= Where are the files saved? =
If you import a file which is outside your standard upload directory (usually wp-content/uploads/) then it will be copied to your current upload directory setting as normal.
If you however import a file which **is already within the uploads directory** (for example, wp-content/uploads/2011/02/superplugin.zip) then the file will not be copied, and will be used as-is.

= I have a a bug report =
You can report bugs in the <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/add-from-server">plugins Support Forum here</a>
