Frequently Asked Questions
Not at all. Folderly runs entirely in your WordPress admin dashboard. It doesn't load any scripts on the frontend of your site, ensuring your visitors see zero impact on page load speeds.
No. Folderly creates 'virtual' folders. Your files stay exactly where they are on your server (usually /wp-content/uploads/). This means you can organize freely without breaking any existing links or SEO.
Yes. Because Folderly uses virtual folders, if you uninstall the plugin, your files just return to the default WordPress media library view. You won't lose any files.
Folderly works with 99% of themes and plugins because it hooks directly into the standard WordPress Media Library, which most themes use.
Yes. Folderly supports 12 sources: FileBird, Real Media Library, HappyFiles, Wicked Folders, WP Media Folder, Enhanced Media Library, Folders (Premio), Media Library Assistant, Media Library Organizer, Media Library Folders, Folderify and iFolders. In Settings → Folderly → Import, choose from the post types detected for each source. Some sources contain media only; others can include posts, pages or custom post types. The source plugin need not be active. Imports run in batches, can be re-run safely and can be undone per post type.
Yes. Undo removes folders created by a specific import for one post type; folders you made yourself stay. The Danger Zone in Settings → Folderly permanently clears every Folderly folder for a selected post type after a type-to-confirm check. That action cannot be undone. Neither action deletes your files or posts.
