Organize your WordPress media library with unlimited folders, drag & drop, and easy performance.

== Description ==

**Folderify** is a high-performance, React-based WordPress plugin that helps you keep your media library organized — no matter how many thousands of images, videos, audio files, or documents you have.

**[Live Demo](https://mo.oppoyo.com/demo/wp-admin/upload.php)** — Try it for yourself!

### 🔥 The Ultimate Free Alternative
Why pay for premium folder plugins? **Folderify Free** now includes absolutely *everything* you would normally have to pay for in the **Pro/Premium** versions of *FileBird, Folders (by Premio), Real Media Library, Media Library Organizer, CatFolders,* and *Wicked Folders*. Enjoy advanced features like nested subfolders, role-based permissions, color-coding, ZIP downloads, and more—completely free of charge!

### ✨ Minimalist & Unique UI
Unlike other bulky plugins that clutter your WordPress admin area, Folderify features a completely unique, ultra-minimalist design. It seamlessly blends into the native WordPress interface while providing a clean, distraction-free environment that is incredibly easy and intuitive to use. No heavy panels, no confusing settings—just pure performance and elegance.

== Installation ==

3. Go to **Media > Library** to see the folder sidebar.
4. Manage permissions and settings at **Folderify**.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Will it slow down my website? =
No. Folderify uses its own custom database tables for folder indexing. This completely avoids costly JOIN queries on `wp_posts` and scales to 100,000+ files with no performance impact.

= Can I export folders? =
Yes. Go to **Folderify > Export** to export your existing folders structure.

= Does it work with Elementor's media picker? =
Yes. The folder panel appears inside Elementor's media modal.

= What happens if I deactivate the plugin? =
Your media files are untouched. Folder assignments are stored separately and can be re-activated at any time.
