Once a media is added to your WordPress media library, some thumbnails are generated, at least 3 for each image. These thumbnails are mainly used for performance purpose, not to load the full image. WP Media Folder Google Drive connector is handling that by attaching thumbnails when the image is moved to the WordPress library or to Google Drive.

Don't worry, you don't have to be a developer to ensure the connection works :) There's 2 connection methods, the first one is click and connect using your Google Drive username and password. The second method is to create your own Google App to get your credentials. There are several synchronization methods that fit different server requirements, such as AJAX sync, Curl, or custom Cron tasks. You can also setup a synchronization delay or force the synchronization manually. Finally there's also the online documentation and our support team is available to help you with any configuration.
