 * Tried getting all files from URL and it seems that is not possible…
 * tried also [http://domain/folder/*.jpg](http://domain/folder/*.jpg)
 * didn’t work.
 * however it would be great to have “get all files” option, and also would add 
   the option to “get files from subfolders too”.
 * cheers

 * This could be very tricky, since remote page could contain too many images and
   that could create high load on your web server.
 * This is a very light plugin and I wasn’t planning to let people import multiple
   remote images at once from URLs (except for the third-party services).
 * This task requires much more time than I have available and since I have to work
   to make money for a living I am dedicating more time to things that bring solid
   income 🙂 I hope you understand.
 * Thank you!
