 * So, I think your plugin will do this but ?I want to be sure. Can you export a
   media library with all it’s hierarchal folders and them import that into a new
   site and get the exact same structure? Are these virtual folders or physical 
   folders?
 * Cheers,
    Dave

 * Hey Dave (@dfilchak), I’m afraid this is not possible. Folders export/import 
   functionality is not available at this moment and we can’t give a suggestion 
   on how to transfer a database as this will update many other files as well. We
   haven’t used a custom database table for the plug-in and instead we have used
   WP default tables.
