Hi @braunsch ,
Thanks for coming today!
With FileBird, you can create a Gutenberg Gallery that looks like this:
https://ninjateam.gitbook.io/filebird/filebird-gutenberg-gallery
Also, you should understand that the folders created are the categories FileBird assigns to files.
“how can I retrieve the files from a folder from outside of FileBird? ”
==> Which outside area/function exactly are you asking about, please?
Kind regards,
-Bruce-
It does not matter if I can create a Gutenberg gallery – because it’s not what I am using, and even though I want to replace my folder plugin I do not want to re-work half of my website.
If categories are attached the “wordpress way” to attachments (just like you can add categories to posts, pages, events (of my event plugin), you can read these from the database from anywhere in WordPress using php. See the example of the shortcode I was providing.
What is needed here is: If you are using wordpress built-in categories for your folders I’d need to know your prefix (= post type, I think). Categories for a regular post typically are “post-categoryname”, categories for my event calendar are “a1ec-categoryname”, categories for Joom Media Folder are “wpmf-foldername”, and regular “attachment” categories for the media/attachment post type are “attachment-categoryname”.
Is there a custom post type for FileBird? – and does FileBird add categories to the uploaded media based on this custom post type in order to assign a (virtual) folder?

Hi @braunsch ,
Please note that FileBird does not support shortcode and custom post types at this time.
We will look into this and might have it in future updates.
Thank you!
Kind regards,
