 * Hi,
 * When you right click a directory and select “Delete” the directory has to be 
   empty to be deleted otherwise nothing happens.
 * Any chance this option can be recursive and empty the folder before deletion?
 * Also, any news on the [removal of the error notices mentioned in this thread](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/php-error-notices-5/)?
 * Thank you,
 * Oliver

 * Hi,
    Yes, true. That should be recursive. Added to to-do 👍
 * Sorry, no. Still working on the rewrite.
