 * Hello There,
 * the default folder settings working well under the media manager in WP. However,
   in the Elementor when we add an image widget (we use Elementor Pro but the image
   widget is also in the free Elementor) and click on it to open the media library
   modal the default folder name is the right, but the modal shows all the images.
   
   If we change the folder to another and then back to the default one the media
   manager shows the images from this folder – that is works well.
 * Would be nice to avoid this 2 extra folder change.
 * How to possible to solve this to show the exact default folder’s content from
   the beginning in Elementor?
 * Regards, M
