详情介绍:
WorkMore Media Folders turns the WordPress Media Library into a file browser you already know how to use: create folders and subfolders, drag images, videos and documents into them, and find any file in seconds — in the Media Library, in the block editor, in WooCommerce and in your page builder.

The folders are virtual. Your files stay exactly where WordPress uploaded them, so organizing thousands of files changes no image URL, breaks no link in your posts and does nothing to your SEO. Deactivate the plugin and your site is exactly as it was.
Unlimited folders, subfolders and files, drag and drop, folder colors, importers and every setting are free. Nothing in this plugin is locked, limited or time-boxed.
Why WorkMore Media Folders?
- Your files never move. Folders are a lightweight taxonomy on top of the library. No file is copied, renamed or relocated, and no URL in your content is rewritten — every image keeps working, including in image optimizers and thumbnail tools.
- Zero frontend footprint. No CSS, no JavaScript and no hooks on your public site, so your visitors' page speed and Core Web Vitals are untouched. An automated test checks this on every release.
- Fast with big libraries. Benchmarked with 50,000 attachments and 500 folders: the folder tree, folder filtering, search and sorting each answer in under 300 ms on the server.
- One integration, everywhere you pick media. The folders live in the WordPress media layer itself, so the same folders appear in the Media Library and in every media window that WordPress opens — without separate code for each editor or builder.
- Easy to switch, easy to leave. Import your folders from another plugin in one click, and your old plugin's data is never modified. An opt-in cleanup removes every trace on uninstall.
- Folder tiles, Finder-style. The top level of the Media Library shows your folders as tiles next to the files that are not in a folder yet. Open a folder in place and follow the breadcrumb back.
- Drag and drop. Drag files and folders onto any folder. A selection travels as one stack with a count, holding it over a folder opens that folder, and anything dropped elsewhere flies back.
- Upload straight into a folder. Drop files from your computer onto a folder tile, a breadcrumb step or a sidebar folder; uploads made while you view a folder land in that folder.
- Select folders and files together. Drag a selection box, Ctrl/⌘-click, Shift-click or press Ctrl/⌘+A, then "Move to…" any folder in one step.
- Undo. Ctrl/⌘+Z undoes moves and folder deletions.
- Unlimited nested folders. Create subfolders at any depth, reorder them by dragging and move them under another parent.
- Colors and stars. Color-code folders and star the ones you use most so they stand out in the tree and on the tiles.
- Right-click menu, inline rename and bulk actions. Move many files at once, or delete a folder with or without its files (the destructive path asks you to type a confirmation).
- Search inside folders. Search the current folder, the folder and its subfolders, or the whole library; matching folder names show up too, and search also looks at file names.
- Sort the way you think. Sort by name, date, date modified, file size, file type or author. File size sorting uses its own index, built from the settings screen in resumable batches.
- Grid and list view. The folder sidebar works in both Media Library views; in the list view, drag rows onto folders by their thumbnail.
- Accessible and mobile friendly. Full keyboard support, screen reader announcements, "reduce motion" respected, long-press dragging on touch screens, and on phones the folder panel folds above the files.
- Block editor (Gutenberg) — Image, Gallery, Cover and Featured Image

- Folders are a standard hierarchical taxonomy (
wmmf_folder) on attachments, so your data stays readable by WordPress and by other tools. - REST API under
workmore-media-folders/v1, with a capability check on every route; the required capability is filterable (wmmf_capability). - PHP actions and filters such as
wmmf_folder_created,wmmf_attachments_assignedandwmmf_folder_tree_payload, plus JavaScript filters for the folder tiles and selection actions. - The JavaScript ships minified; the human-readable source is included in the plugin's
src/directory together with the build configuration (vite.config.js).
- Cloud storage offload to Cloudflare R2, Amazon S3, DigitalOcean Spaces, Backblaze B2, Wasabi or MinIO, with every move checked and fully reversible
- ZIP downloads of folders and selections

常见问题:
How do I create folders in the WordPress Media Library?
Install and activate WorkMore Media Folders, then open Media → Library. Click "New folder" (or the "New folder" tile after your folders), name it, and drag files onto it. Right-click a folder to add a subfolder, rename it, color it or star it.
Is it really free? Are folders limited?
Yes. Unlimited folders, subfolders and files, drag and drop, colors, stars, search, sorting, the importers and all settings are free, without time limits. The optional Pro add-on adds separate features such as cloud storage offload and ZIP downloads; nothing in the free plugin is locked.
Do folders change my file URLs or move files on the server?
No, never. Folders are virtual: a lightweight taxonomy on top of your existing library. Files stay exactly where WordPress put them and every URL keeps working.
Will organizing media into folders affect my SEO?
No. Image URLs, file names, alt text and your post content stay exactly the same, so nothing that search engines see changes.
Will it slow my site down?
Not your public site: the plugin adds no CSS, JavaScript or hooks there. In the admin it is benchmarked with 50,000 attachments, with the folder tree, filtering, search and sorting each answering in under 300 ms on the server.
What happens if I deactivate or uninstall WorkMore Media Folders?
Deactivating simply hides the folders; your media is untouched. Uninstalling removes the plugin's data only if you opted in to "delete data on uninstall" in the settings; otherwise your folders are still there if you reinstall.
Does it work with Gutenberg, WooCommerce, Elementor and other page builders?
Yes. WorkMore Media Folders extends the standard WordPress media window, which the block editor, the Classic Editor, WooCommerce, Elementor and most builders use. The newer "Media" tab of the block inserter does not use that window, so it shows no folders; its "Open Media Library" button opens the full window, where your folders are.
Can I import folders from FileBird, Real Media Library or another folder plugin?
Yes. Importers for FileBird, Real Media Library, HappyFiles, Folders by Premio, Wicked Folders and Enhanced Media Library are built in (Media → WorkMore Media Folders). Imports are resumable, running them twice duplicates nothing, and the source plugin's data is left untouched.
Can a file be in more than one folder?
No. A file lives in at most one folder, like on your computer, so there is always one clear place to find it. Files not yet in a folder sit at the top level next to your folders, and "Show every file" lists the whole library at once.
Who can manage folders?
Anyone who can upload files (the upload_files capability) can browse folders and file media into them; settings and tools need manage_options. Developers can change both with the wmmf_capability filter.
Is WorkMore Media Folders available in my language?
Ten languages ship built in: Thai, Japanese, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Brazilian Portuguese, Indonesian and Simplified Chinese, plus community translations via translate.wordpress.org as they become available.
Does the plugin connect to any external service?
No. The free plugin makes no network requests of its own. The only outbound links are the "Upgrade to Pro" buttons, which open our website in a new tab when you click them.
更新日志:
2.2.1
- Fix: the folder menu stays on screen. Opened low on the screen, a long menu (with the Pro add-on's storage entries, for example) ran off the bottom and its last entries — Bring files back, Delete — could not be reached. It now places itself by its real size and scrolls inside when the window is shorter than the menu.
- New: folders in the Media Library grid, Finder-style. The top level shows your folders as tiles and only the files that are in no folder; open a folder in place, follow the breadcrumb back, create a folder from the last tile. "Show every file" lists the whole library.
- New: select folders and files together — a selection box, Ctrl/⌘-click, Shift-click or Ctrl/⌘+A — and "Move to…" any folder in one step, with undo.
- New: dragging redone. A selection travels as one stack with a count, a tip says what a drop will do, holding over a folder opens it, and anything dropped elsewhere flies back. Touch screens pick up with a long press, Ctrl/⌘+Z undoes, "reduce motion" is respected and screen readers hear what happens.
- New: drop files from your desktop onto a folder tile, a breadcrumb step or a sidebar folder to upload them straight into it.
- New: the media modal (Gutenberg, Classic Editor, WooCommerce, page builders) opens on the same top level, with the folders as chips above the files.
- New: the list view gets the folder sidebar and chips; drag rows onto folders.
- New: on narrow screens the folder panel folds above the files.
- Changed: "Uncategorized" is gone from the sidebar and the media modal — the top level holds the files that are in no folder, and dropping files on "All files" takes them out of their folder.
- Changed: files you are not allowed to edit are refused while you drag them, with the reason.
- Fix: a file size that changes when an image is edited reaches the folder totals at once.
- For developers: new hooks for add-ons —
wmmf_folder_tree_payload(PHP) and the JavaScript filterswmmf.tile.meta,wmmf.tile.badgesandwmmf.selection.actions.
- Fix: creating a folder from the sidebar no longer shows "A folder with this name already exists here." after the folder was created. The name was saved twice; it is now saved once, and a name that is refused stays in the field so you can change it.
- Fix: the Media Library grid no longer repeats files and stops loading ("Load more") when many files share the same upload time, the name, or another sort value — common after an import. Every sort now has a stable order.
- Smaller download: the styles and translations of the separately sold Pro add-on now ship with the add-on itself, not with this plugin.
- The "Upgrade to Pro" links open the Media Folders pricing page directly.
- The plugin author link now points at the product site.
- Security hardening: filing a file into a folder (REST and the list-mode bulk action) now requires permission to edit that specific file, and reordering folders under a new parent is treated as a move, so restricted subfolders can never be relocated that way.
- Security hardening: folder operations that act on a whole subtree (delete, bulk delete, move) now check every folder in that subtree against role restrictions, the reorder endpoint validates the parameters it actually receives, and the list-mode "Move to folder" action applies the same check.
- The inline admin configuration is JSON-encoded with HTML-safe flags.
- New name: WorkMore Media Folders (previously published nowhere under its working title). Slug, text domain and all internal identifiers renamed.
- The plugin is fully functional on its own; the separately sold Pro add-on is only mentioned on the "Upgrade to Pro" settings tab and on clearly labeled menu entries.
- Settings screen: card layout with contextual help on every option, resumable file size index, importers and the opt-in uninstall cleanup.
- Ten bundled languages, all strings translated.
- Initial development release: virtual folders, drag & drop, nesting, colors, stars, bulk actions, undo, folder sidebar in the Media Library grid and the media modal, search and sorting (including indexed file size), importers for six folder plugins, zero frontend footprint.
