DriveHub - File Manager for Google Drive, Embed Files, Image Gallery & Media Library

🔥 Get DriveHub PRO | 📖 Docs | 🤝 Join Community | 🕹️ YouTube DriveHub is an all-in-one Google Drive plugin for WordPress that works as a Google Drive file manager, document embedder, image and video gallery, file uploader, document library, and cloud file sharing solution. Manage Google Drive files directly from WordPress, embed Google Drive files including Docs, Sheets, Slides, PDFs, images, and supported media, create galleries and document libraries, upload and download files, and display cloud content without duplicating your entire Drive library on WordPress hosting. DriveHub provides a Google Drive integration for WordPress, so files stay organized in Drive while your website becomes the frontend for displaying, sharing, collecting, and delivering them. Create reusable modules and insert them using Gutenberg, Elementor, Divi, Classic Editor / TinyMCE, or shortcodes. Source Code The JavaScript in assets/js/ is a compiled/minified build. The full, human-readable source is included in this plugin under js-src/, along with the package.json used to build it. To build from source: run npm install followed by npm run build:all from the plugin's root directory. Key Features ✅ Google Drive File Manager Manage files and folders from your connected Drive account without leaving WordPress. Supported actions include:

• Browse and search files and folders
• Upload files and create folders
• Rename, move, copy, and delete files and folders
• Create shareable links
• Download individual files and folders as ZIP archives
• Browse My Drive, Shared with me, Starred, Computers, and other supported Drive locations

Your original files remain in Drive while WordPress provides the management interface. ✅ Embed Google Drive Files in WordPress Embed supported Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, PDFs, images, media, and other document formats directly into WordPress pages and posts. Create an Embed Document module, select a file, configure its display settings, and place it in your WordPress content. Use embeds for reports, manuals, presentations, spreadsheets, course materials, public documents, and client resources. ✅ Google Drive Image & Video Gallery Turn supported images and videos stored in Drive into responsive WordPress galleries. Configure available gallery settings such as layout, columns, sizing, spacing, sorting, file names, folder visibility, and lightbox viewing. Use galleries for photography portfolios, client galleries, events, products, schools, creative work, and media collections. ✅ Google Drive Document Library and File List Turn a selected Drive folder into a structured file list, document library, resource center, or download collection. Display supported file information and actions such as file name, size, date, folder, preview, and download. Use file lists for company documents, reports, manuals, product documentation, course resources, client deliverables, and internal resources. ✅ Upload Files from WordPress to Google Drive Send supported files from WordPress to your connected Drive account. DriveHub includes Contact Form 7 integration for supported file-upload workflows such as applications, client documents, project submissions, assignments, support attachments, and general file collection. ✅ Google Drive Downloads and File Sharing Provide frontend downloads and supported file-sharing options for selected Drive files. Protected-download workflows can use signed, expiring tokens instead of exposing the underlying file URL directly. Depending on the module, sharing options can include direct links, email, Facebook, X/Twitter, and WhatsApp. ✅ File Access Control Restrict supported frontend modules and administrative functionality by WordPress user role, individual user, or password. Use access controls for client documents, membership resources, internal files, private content, and protected downloads. ✅ OAuth Connection Connect supported Google Drive accounts through OAuth authentication without sharing a Google account password with WordPress. Administrators can connect, reconnect, and manage authorization from the WordPress dashboard. 🔥 Get DriveHub PRO | 📖 Docs | 🤝 Join Community | 🕹️ YouTube Why Use Google Drive With WordPress? WordPress provides the website and publishing layer, while Google Drive provides cloud storage and file organization. DriveHub connects the two, allowing sites to use Google Drive as file storage for WordPress while managing, embedding, displaying, uploading, sharing, and delivering selected Drive files. This can reduce duplicate file management for teams already using Google Drive or Google Workspace for documents, images, media, and other resources. File Storage and Delivery Original files remain in your connected Drive account. DriveHub keeps Google Drive as the source for supported WordPress file workflows and does not require your entire cloud library to be copied into the WordPress Media Library simply to display supported content. This approach is useful for document collections, image libraries, downloadable resources, client files, course materials, company documents, and media archives. Some supported operations may read or stream file data through your WordPress server when required for a preview, download, or other requested action. Module Builder The Module Builder lets you create reusable Google Drive modules for displaying and interacting with files in WordPress. Choose a module, select your Drive file or folder, configure the available settings, and insert the saved module into your WordPress website. ✅ Free Modules

1.4.2 - September 9, 2026

• Fix: Connected Google accounts no longer appear to sign themselves out. The plugin renews the Google access token in the background as it should; a token that had simply lapsed was being treated as a lost connection, so the File Browser showed the "Reconnect your Google Drive" screen roughly an hour after each sign-in even though nothing was wrong.
• Fix: Accounts connected on older versions of the plugin no longer trigger a renewal on every request. A missing internal timestamp made these connections look permanently expired, which could exhaust the connection service's rate limit and leave the account showing as disconnected until it was reconnected by hand.
• Fix: A brief network or server hiccup during token renewal no longer drops the connection. It is retried on the next request; the account is only marked for reconnection when Google has genuinely revoked access or no refresh token is available.
• New: When an account does need reconnecting, DriveHub now shows a notice on its admin screens naming the affected account, and clears it automatically once the account is reconnected or the token next renews.

1.4.1 - September 8, 2026

• New: Integrations now has its own menu item instead of sitting inside Settings.
• New: Tutorials, Docs and Feedback links at the top of every DriveHub screen.
• Fix: An integration that was switched on but not finished now reads "Not set up" instead of "Active". WooCommerce and Easy Digital Downloads do nothing until you also choose downloads or uploads, and the Media Library needs at least one folder, so some sites will see this on integrations that were reporting as active.
• Fix: Integrations whose plugin is not installed no longer show a switch that saves a setting nothing reads. They offer to install the plugin instead.
• Fix: Switches are now visible against a white background. The off state failed the WCAG minimum for a control outline and was close to invisible on some screens.
• Fix: The search field on the Integrations screen no longer prints its placeholder on top of the magnifier icon.
• Fix: An Integrations card no longer flashes its toggle on before settling on "Install X" - plugin-detection status is known before the page paints, not fetched after.
• Fix: The Tutorials/Docs/Feedback strip no longer appears twice on File Browser, Integrations, Modules and the locked Approvals/Analytics screens.
• Fix: Added missing accessible names to three icon-only buttons in File Browser (remove folder, collapse sidebar, per-file more-actions) that only had a visual tooltip.
• Enhancement: Each integration keeps its settings with its own card rather than in a separate list further down the page.
• Enhancement: Wider, consistent page margins across the admin screens.
• Enhancement: File Browser, Modules, Integrations and the locked Approvals/Analytics screens now share the same header spacing, alignment and typography.
• Enhancement: "Add module" moved out of the Modules header into its own row above the table, next to the toolbar rather than crowding the title.

• New: Easy Digital Downloads integration.

1.3.4 - August 31, 2026

• New: The Upgrade control now recognises a DriveHub Pro that is installed but not switched on, and offers to activate it instead of asking you to buy what you already own.
• Enhancement: Get Started opens on a single, clearly primary action rather than several competing ones.
• Enhancement: The upgrade dialog has been rebuilt. It names the feature you clicked rather than making a general pitch, keeps the keyboard inside it, closes on Escape, hands focus back to the control you opened it from, and holds the page still instead of shifting it sideways.
• Enhancement: The Tutorials link now carries the mark of the site it opens, so you can see where it goes before you click it.
• Fix: The upgrade dialog ignored a custom brand colour and drew its button in another product's blue. It now follows the colour set in Settings.
• Fix: The upgrade dialog's animation ran continuously and could not be switched off by a "reduce motion" setting.
• Fix: Removed the Custom CSS feature entirely to comply with WordPress.org's policy against arbitrary code insertion.
• Fix: Tested up to version now uses major-version format only.
• Fix: Updated bundled Freemius SDK to the latest version.

1.3.3 - August 21, 2026

1.3.0 - August 18, 2026

• New: Browse and create Google Drive folders from Members' files, with search, sorting, and pagination across member rows.
• New: Disconnect a Google Drive account directly from the File Browser, with an inline confirmation that nothing is deleted from Drive.
• New: Usage limits now offer a clear Unlimited or Limited choice instead of an empty field.
• New: Translation-ready admin. DriveHub now ships a complete .pot file for translators.
• Enhancement: Rebuilt admin interface with one page header per screen, consistent empty states, and a single field, checkbox, and button style throughout.
• Enhancement: Rebuilt the Module Builder around a step-by-step flow that warns when a module has no files to display.
• Enhancement: Reorganized Settings into named sections, moved connected accounts to the top, and put both Google Drive connection modes side by side.
• Enhancement: Redesigned Get Started and the Google Drive connection wizard, now shared with the File Browser.
• Enhancement: Admin screens use the full width of large monitors, and your brand color is applied on every screen, including themed installs.
• Enhancement: Admin screens load faster by rendering from data printed with the page instead of waiting on an extra request.
• Fix: Hardened Google OAuth. A connection callback is now accepted only when the sign-in was started on your own site.
• Fix: Connected account tokens are no longer loaded on every front-end request.
• Fix: Deactivating DriveHub now clears every scheduled task it creates.
• Fix: Assets are versioned by plugin version, so caches no longer serve stale files on multi-server hosting.
• Fix: The unsaved-changes bar no longer flickers or briefly reads zero after saving or discarding.
• Fix: Corrected keyboard focus outlines, icon alignment, and documentation links across the admin.

1.2.1 - August 13, 2026
