###⚡️ FEATURES

FileBird allows you to create virtual folders to categorize your WordPress media file uploads. So when you move files and folders, that won’t break the permalinks to your images in the page/post content.

With FileBird Pro you can save time on WP media management, search for any files & folders, sort them out, add product image gallery, download/export media folders, etc. That’s a great way to boost your admin workflow and productivity.

**Download Media Folder (PRO)**
Export an entire media folder including its subfolders and files in a single ZIP file. Keep the same folder structure.

**Startup Folder**
Choose a specific folder or previously opened folder for startup. Quickly back to work. Save more time.

**Friendly User Interface**
Drag and drop to upload or bulk move files into folders. Drag and drop to arrange folders and subfolders.

**Smart Context Menu**
Right-click to quickly create, rename, cut, paste, or delete folders just the way you do on your computer.

**Full Control In One Toolbar**
FileBird’s collapsible sidebar provides you with the ultimate control over all WordPress media library folders.

**Painless Migration**
Import and seamlessly synchronize media category/folder structure from Enhanced Media Library, WP Media Folder by JoomUnited, WordPress Media Library Folders by Max Foundry, Real Media Library, and HappyFiles.

**User Based Folder View**
Enabling this mode allows admins and other users with access to create their own categories/directories. A user can freely manage his/her folders without affecting others' directory structure.

**Powerful Search Feature**
You can sort and search for file and folder name not only in Media library but also in page/post editor.

**Various Sort Options (PRO)**
Go advanced with 2 ways to sort folders and 8 ways to sort files. This is a great time-saver for all busy WordPress admins & webmasters.

**Customizable Default File Order**
Set a way of sorting files ascending/descending alphabetically by the file name, title, date, modified, and author.

**Bulk-Delete Folders**
Now you can bulk-select folders and delete them in a single click. All those files will be moved to the Uncategorized folder and remain intact.

**RTL Supported**
FileBird supports RTL languages including Hebrew, Arabic, etc.

**Many Languages Supported**
This plugin supports most popular languages such as English, Spanish, Italian, French, Germany, etc.

###👍 HOW DOES FILEBIRD WORK?
Are you a WordPress website administrator?

Managing a WordPress site means that you’ll be adding tons of multi-media files such as images, videos, audios, documents, etc., into your WP media library.

As a result, your library has to store thousands of files and could become a total mess. WordPress default file name search function is a good thing but it will never match the ease of going directly to a folder. That’s when FileBird comes in to help with managing files in WordPress!

This media file manager gives you the ability to easily organize all files by drag and drop between folders. With FileBird in hand, things will be a lot better than they were.

The best thing about a folder-based structure is it makes it very easy to find the files you need and saves you so much time.

You won’t see WordPress media library not loading, as FileBird smart-loads one folder at a time.

###🚀 Tips to manage WP media folders like a pro with FileBird

* Upload multiple folders and their files directly from computer to WordPress
* Resize the left sidebar to get an overview of all folders
* Upload files to a specific folder by choosing the destination folder from the **drop-down**
* Easily **search** for the name of file/folder
* From the page/post composer, **browse** files and folders in the FileBird UI
* Use FileBird block gallery to insert multiple media files in a page, post, and custom post type
* Keep your folders uncluttered by clearing out the old files using **Sort** features
* Press ESC to exit bulk select mode

== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= I learn from other WordPress blogs and review articles that FileBird is free for up to 10 folders, but... =
Yes, 10-folder Free Tier was included in FileBird from its initial release until FileBird Lite version 4.4. In early 2021, we were requested by WordPress Review Team to change those terms of use. As a result, now you can [create unlimited folders](https://ninjateam.org/filebird-lite-important-notice/) in FileBird free version.

= Do all of my previously uploaded files remain the same after I first install this plugin? =
Yes, you can find all uploads in the **All Files** folder.

= When I move an image to another folder, does this action affect how the image appears in page/post? =
No, it makes no changes to your images on the site front-end.
