Synchronize your photos, collections, keywords and metadata between Lightroom and WordPress.

== Description ==

Synchronize your photos, collections, keywords and metadata between Lightroom and WordPress. You can link meta fields from Lightroom to those in WordPress (Title, Description, Alt) and also keep it in sync. Any changes in your Lightroom will be replicated in your WordPress. Basically this is not a problem anymore when you change your watermark, the quality of your photos, the post-processing or information, it's all one-click away. The introduction tutorial is here: https://meowapps.com/wplr-sync/tutorial/.

**INSTALLATION**. This plugin requires the WP/LR Sync plugin for Lightroom. It is available here: [WP/LR Sync at Meow Apps](https://meowapps.com/wplr-sync).

**SUPPORT FOR THEMES AND GALLERY PLUGINS**. If you are using specific gallery plugins or photography themes, WP/LR Sync can bring all the power of Lightroom to them, magically, seamlessly. You will be free to choose the theme or gallery plugin you like the best and even switch between them. WP/LR Sync has a built-in extensions system so that you can extend it easily and support specific themes and plugins. A powerful extension called "Post Types" is already included and probably does everything you need. More information about it here: [Post Types Extension](https://meowapps.com/wplr-sync-post-types-extension/).

**GALLERIES BASED ON YOUR LIGHTROOM KEYWORDS AND COLLECTIONS**. You can use attributes (collections='...', keywords='...') in the standard WP Gallery shortcode to link your galleries to your collections and keywords in Lightoom dynamically. No need to own a specific plugin or anything, it works naturally with WordPress. Then, both the [Meow Gallery](https://wordpress.org/plugins/meow-gallery/) and the [Meow Lightbox](https://wordpress.org/plugins/meow-gallery/) are recommended to enhance your galleries with better layouts and options.

**ABOUT PREVIOUSLY UPLOADED IMAGES**. Do you have many photos in your WordPress already and they are not linked with your Lightroom? No problem, WP/LR Sync can do that too. Using EXIF and image perceptual analysis, the plugin will help you linking them through a process call Total Synchronization or you can do it manually. The process is explained here: [Total Synchronization](https://meowapps.com/wplr-sync/total-synchronization/).

**SWAPPING PHOTOS**. You are using a certain photo everywhere but you now have a better one? From Lightroom, you can swap one photo to another and this will be replicated automatically on your WordPress. You have nothing else to do. The module is called "Switch Photos" in Lightroom.

**API & APPS**. There is an external API available through WP/LR Sync that iPhone, Android developers or anybody else can use to make apps. There is one available for iPhone, you can search for it on the iTunes Store (it is not free, and not made by Meow Apps).

**UNIQUE AND POWERFUL PLUGIN**. I am myself an user of this plugin and even though it is the only one, I want to make it better every day. If you have issues, frustrations, or anything to say, contact me. I will work hard to make it even more awesome.
