Some files are ignored:
– index.php,
– various hidden files,
– WP generated thumbnails – anything ending with for example -100×100.jpg.
If you add file directly to uploads directory (not through WordPress), and run “Scan Files” in this plugin, that new file should show up.
This plugin uses default “uploads” directory that itself WordPress uses, and path can be seen highlighted on first page of this plugin.
Not sure what kind of debugging would be helpful here.
It ignores those files ending image sizes (thumbnails) because those are automatically generated and shouldn’t be imported to Media Library.
Hi @aspeagle, I’m closing this task since there was not reply for 2 weeks.
And if you still need this, you can check this topic that might be related:

This plugin required “short_open_tag” to be turned on for PHP on server. But I updated it now, so that it works even if short_open_tag is turned off.
