ವಿವರಣೆ
Flexa Media Folders adds a hierarchical, drag-and-drop folder tree to the WordPress Media Library. Group images, videos, documents and any other attachment into nested folders, then filter the library to a single folder with one click – in the grid view, the list view, and the media picker inside the post editor.
Folders are stored in two dedicated, indexed database tables, so your wp_term* tables stay clean and the tree loads fast even with thousands of files.
Features
- Hierarchical folder tree – create unlimited nested folders, rename them, and reorder them by drag-and-drop.
- Drag attachments into folders – drag an item from the Media Library straight onto a folder.
- Works everywhere the Media Library does – the folder sidebar appears on the Media grid, the list view (
upload.php), and the media modal in both the block editor and the Classic Editor. - One-click filtering – click a folder to filter the library to it, plus built-in “All files” and “Uncategorized” views.
- Color labels – assign one of 18 colors to any folder from the right-click menu to spot it at a glance.
- Full context menu – New Folder, Rename, Cut, Paste, Delete and Change Color, all from a right-click.
- File counts – each folder can show how many attachments it contains (toggle in Settings).
- Folder search – filter the folder tree as you type.
- Settings page – choose a default folder for new uploads (none / last used / a specific folder), set the folder sort order, toggle file counts, and exclude specific post types from showing the sidebar.
- Dark mode – the tree automatically follows your WordPress admin color scheme.
- Accessible – full ARIA tree semantics, keyboard navigation, and visible focus styles.
- Translation ready – every string is internationalized and a
.pottemplate is bundled. - REST API – all screens are powered by a REST API under
/wp-json/flexa-mf/v1/, so external integrations and your own code can read and manage folders too. - WP-CLI – manage folders and reset plugin data from the command line with
wp flexa-mf. - Clean uninstall – a Settings danger zone (and
wp flexa-mf reset) wipes all plugin data on demand; uninstalling the plugin drops its tables. Your media files are never touched.
Source code for compiled JavaScript and CSS

ಸ್ಥಾಪನೆ
- Upload the plugin files to

- Open Media in the admin menu – the folder sidebar appears next to your library. Visit Media Media Folders to configure defaults.
FAQ
-
Does this move or rename my media files?
-
No. Folders are an organizational layer stored separately in the database. Your files stay exactly where WordPress put them, with the same URLs.
-
What happens to my folders if I deactivate or delete the plugin?
-
Deactivating keeps all folder data. Deleting (uninstalling) the plugin drops its database tables and removes its settings – but your media files are never deleted. You can also wipe folder data on demand from the Settings danger zone.
-
Does it use WordPress taxonomies?
-
No. Folders live in two dedicated, indexed tables. This keeps your
wp_term*tables clean and lets the tree load in a single query. -
Can I filter the Media Library by folder inside the post editor?
-
Yes. The folder sidebar is available in the media modal in both the block editor and the Classic Editor.
-
Is there a REST API?
-
Yes – all folder data is exposed under
/wp-json/flexa-mf/v1/. The endpoints require the same capabilities as the Media Library itself. -
How does the plugin handle authentication and permissions?
-
Every state-changing request goes through the WordPress REST API and is gated by two checks: a capability check (
upload_filesfor folder actions,manage_optionsfor settings and the data-reset endpoint) and the standard WordPress REST nonce (X-WP-Nonce). On top of that, assigning or detaching media is verified per attachment with theedit_postcapability, and the attachment listing is scoped to media the current user can manage. The plugin does not register any custom admin-ajax endpoints. Both capability gates are filterable viaflexa_mf/capabilities/manageandflexa_mf/capabilities/settingsif you need to tighten or loosen them. -
Yes. The plugin’s Settings page has a per-post-type exclusion list.

Changelog
1.2.4
- New: translation template (.pot) covering all plugin strings, so the plugin can now be translated into other languages.
1.2.3
- New: a Settings link on the Plugins page now takes you straight to the Media Folders settings.
1.2.2
- Fix: development files are no longer included in the release package.
1.2.1
- Fix: the “Download folder” notice now inserts the folder name correctly in translated languages, so translators can reposition the placeholder.
1.2.0
- New: after moving media into a folder, the confirmation toast now offers an Undo button for 5 seconds – click it to send every item back to its previous folder (including Uncategorized) with folder counts and the media grid updated automatically.
1.1.0
- New: rename a folder inline by double-clicking its name in the sidebar – press Enter or click away to save, Esc to cancel. Empty names are ignored and the right-click Rename option still works as before.
1.0.2
- Security: the folder assign/detach REST endpoints now verify per-attachment edit permission (
edit_post) for each item, so a user can only organize media they are allowed to edit instead of any attachment in the library. - Security: the attachment-listing REST endpoint now scopes results to media the caller can manage – users who cannot edit others’ posts see only their own uploads.
1.0.1
- Security: bind every custom-table identifier through
wpdb::prepare()‘s%iplaceholder so no SQL string interpolates a table name outsideprepare(). - Security: gate the Media Library query-filter superglobal reads behind an explicit
current_user_can()check (defense in depth on top of WordPress’s upstream cap enforcement). - Fix: the admin UI now loads correctly on the Settings page.
- Fix: dark-mode styling on the folder tree, drag tooltip, and toast.
- Compatibility: minimum WordPress version bumped from 5.8 to 6.2 (required for the
%iplaceholder).
