• Drag & Drop Interface: Easily move media files between folders with intuitive drag and drop functionality
• Upload to Folders: Directly upload new media to specific folders
• Works with Default Media Library: Seamlessly integrates with WordPress’s built-in media management
• Automatic Unassigned Folder: Media without a folder is automatically placed in an “Unassigned” folder
• No Media Duplication: Files are organized virtually without duplicating them on your server
• Lightweight: Optimized for performance with minimal impact on your site’s speed

Perfect For

• Content Creators: Easily find and reuse media assets across your site

How It Works

Apex Folders creates a custom taxonomy for your media attachments and provides an intuitive user interface for managing them. The plugin adds folder functionality directly to your existing WordPress Media Library interface, making it feel like a natural part of WordPress.

Additional Information

Folder Hierarchy

Apex Folders supports unlimited folder nesting, allowing you to create as deep a hierarchy as you need for your media organization.

Admin Tools

Administrators have access to helpful tools for managing folders, including:
* Rebuild Unassigned Folder – ensures all media has proper folder assignments

Performance Considerations

The plugin is optimized for performance but managing folders with thousands of files may experience slight delays. We recommend using a good caching solution for sites with very large media libraries.
