File Manager
Manage files directly from your WordPress dashboard.
Organize your WordPress media library the way it should have been from day one. Folders, drag-and-drop, and cloud storage.
Why choose this plugin
Real Folder Organization
Create unlimited nested folders with colors, drag-and-drop sorting, and instant search.
Works Where You Work
The folder sidebar appears in the media library grid, list view, and inside the post editor media modal.
Cloud Offloading
Automatically offload media to Cloudflare R2 storage. Serve files faster while saving server space.
Nothing Breaks
Virtual folders mean your actual files stay untouched. Delete a folder and the files are simply uncategorized.
About
