FAQ
-
Will it slow down my website?

No. Folderify uses its own custom database tables for folder indexing. This completely avoids costly JOIN queries on
wp_postsand scales to 100,000+ files with no performance impact. -
Can I export folders?
-
Yes. Go to Folderify > Export to export your existing folders structure.
-
Does it work with Elementor’s media picker?
-
Yes. The folder panel appears inside Elementor’s media modal.
-
What happens if I deactivate the plugin?
-
Your media files are untouched. Folder assignments are stored separately and can be re-activated at any time.
-
How can I get Folderify Pro for FREE?
