    The plugin works fine. However, I would like to select just specific images as not all images in the specified folder (wp-content/uploads/2025/01/) should be displayed.

    The documentation of the plugin contains a screenshot where there is a field for selecting specific images. I use the plugin in a block, but in the Hot Radnom Image Options there is no “selecting specific images” field.

    Is it possible to select specific images via the shortcode? If yes, what whould be the code? I have tried different options, but none works. The plugin just shows everything with is in folder wp-content/uploads/2025/01/

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hello,

    The selection of the specific images is possible only if you are using the widget. It’s not possible for the block or shortcode.

    Hey!

    Your fast reply is much appreciated.

    So I would need to apply a workaround. Do you know if there an easy way to define a new folder for the upload of images and just upload a couple of images into this folder? All I found so far advises me to change the default upload location via PHP, upload files and then (I assume) change the default upload loaction back to what it was… To me this sound like many opportunities where I could make errors

    Hello,

    You can create a new folder inside the WordPress folder “wp-content/uploads” using the FTP and upload the images you want to rotate using the FTP as well. Then just point to this folder in the plugin parameters.

    Of course, the FTP!

    Thanks a lot for the hint, that did the trick.
