 Severity:  normal        |    Keywords:  media gallery, gallery hierarchy, old posts, date-based hierarchy, photo upload hierarchy

 When adding photos to a post, Wordpress stores them inside the "uploads"
 folder on a year/month-based folder hierarchy. It does make sense when you
 are writing a new post but none when you are updating an old post, trying
 to get rid of old gallery solutions in place of the new Wordpress built-in
 media gallery. So, there should be an option to avoid this default
 configuration and make Wordpress recognize you are updating an old post to
 store the photos according to the date when it was first published.

 Thanks you very much in advance.
