I should have realised there would be issues when I discovered there was no way to locate and install this plug-in from within the plug-in finder in Wordpress site. I had to download it from the wordpress.org respository, and then upload it to the site. First attempt at download a few images resulted in: "There has been a critical error on this website. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions." This is on latest Wordpress as of 2021-07-02. Seems this plug-in is broken, and not maintained.
