NaveenCodes Media Organizer<\/strong> adds a clean folder sidebar to your WordPress Media Library and a dedicated Unused Media page \u2014 without any cloud service, subscription, or external requests.<\/p>\n\n

Features<\/h4>\n\n

Virtual Folders<\/strong>\nCreate an unlimited hierarchy of folders directly inside the Media Library. Folders are WordPress taxonomy terms \u2014 no extra database tables.<\/p>\n\n

Folder Sidebar<\/strong>\nA collapsible sidebar appears in the Media Library page with your full folder tree. Click any folder to instantly filter the grid to files in that folder.<\/p>\n\n

Folder Assignment<\/strong>\nAssign media to a folder from the attachment detail panel (click any image in the media grid). Works in the Media Library, the media modal, and the Edit Media page.<\/p>\n\n

Bulk Move<\/strong>\nSelect multiple files in the media grid, pick a folder, and move them all in one click.<\/p>\n\n

Unused Media Finder<\/strong>\nA dedicated \"Unused Media\" page lists every file that is not attached to a post, not embedded in any post content, and not set as a featured image. Delete them individually or in bulk.<\/p>\n\n

Replace File<\/strong>\nUpload a replacement for any file \u2014 the URL, attachment ID, and all page references stay exactly the same. Thumbnails are automatically regenerated.<\/p>\n\n

Duplicate Finder<\/strong>\nScans your entire media library for files with identical content (hash-based). Shows them in groups so you can delete extras without losing the original.<\/p>\n\n

Dashboard Widget<\/strong>\nA quick-glance widget on your WP Admin dashboard shows total files, folder count, and unused file count.<\/p>\n\n

Privacy<\/h4>\n\n

Everything runs on your server. No data is sent anywhere. No tracking, no analytics, no ads.<\/p>\n\n

Free, Forever<\/h4>\n\n

No upsells, no premium tier, no usage limits.<\/p>\n\n

    \n

    Will organizing folders change my file URLs?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    No. Folders are virtual (WordPress taxonomy terms) and do not affect the physical file paths or URLs of your media.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Does it work with the Block Editor media modal?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Yes. The folder dropdown appears in the attachment detail panel in both the media grid and the block editor media modal.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    What does \"unused\" mean?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    A file is considered unused if it is not attached to any post, not referenced in the content of any published post or page, and not used as a featured image.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Does it slow down the media library?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    No. Folder filtering uses a standard WordPress taxonomy query \u2014 the same mechanism WP uses for its own filters.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Is it really free?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Yes. Free forever, every feature included, no ads. Built with care by NaveenCodes.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
