Descripción

MedienUpload Lite extends the WordPress Media Library with practical folder management:

Real server folders – Each folder is created under wp-content/uploads/medienupload-lite/
Custom names – Folders can be named freely and nested
Automatic date structure – Uploads are stored in Year/Month subfolders (e.g. 2026/07/)
Media Library integration – Folder sidebar in the media picker and on the upload page
Active upload folder – Choose where new uploads are saved
Fully usable free – No quotas, no locked features, no license key required
Translations – Contribute via translate.wordpress.org

Looking for Pro features?

Need drag & drop moves between folders, physical file relocation, and flexible date folder options? MedienUpload Pro is available separately at plugins.froendhoff.com.

Lite works completely on its own. Pro is an optional add-on and is not required.
