Download All Media
A button to zip all media files and download them. Would be a neat feature for a media folder plugin.Leave a comment:
2 Comments:
- November 4, 2020Agreed. Must allow download of a folders contents. Not for migrating sites, just for managing existing media. I have many existing PDFs and Jpegs in a folder. Ideally want to download them to easily resize and rename before uploading again. Much easier than trying to do it all on the site.
- August 30, 2020Export & Import option with checkboxes as well, so we could create "Folder structure templates" to our "Template" WP site and export it to the client site. You need to create the folders structure only once and repeat exporting & importing.

Image Thumbnails on Hover
The images in the Media use square-cropped thumbs. It would be handy to see the whole image when hovered over. WP Media Folder (which I plan to replace with your plugin) has this feature, and I miss it.newLeave a comment:
4 Comments:
- September 24, 2020Oh, and the name of the file on this hover would be useful as well.
- September 15, 2020Yes it would be good
- September 2, 2020Also regenerate thumbnails please, personally I dont want to install separate plugin for that
- June 15, 2020Has my vote. Maybe a native presentation of the whole images could be an alternative option.
-
Display List of Files in a Category
A shortcode from which we can display the list of files (PDF, DOCX, etc.) with an option to enable a downloadable link or button. List should automatically update whenever files are added/removed from that category.newLeave a comment:
6 Comments:
- October 9, 2020Yes it would be almost a necessity for the list of files to be able to be ordered by the date assigned to the file. I assume that somehow that date field would also need to be added OR maybe files can be reordered manually in the backend? Or both? Just suggestions. In my example, I'd need the most recent file first, but this wouldn't be when the file was uploaded, there would have to be some sort of manual intervention.
- October 9, 2020This is exactly the reason I came to this roadmap, hoping someone had suggested this feature. A simple vertical list would be great where the title field of the file is used alongside a download button, or even the title linked. This would need to be up to accessibility standards, so I guess it would be more meaningful to screenreaders to have the file title linked to the download, rather than a just a download button. The current FILE Guternburg block has the title linked and has a download button. As I said there's already a Guternburg block called FILE that gives us what we need but it takes far too long to keep on adding lots of files. Your FILES blocks would be awesome so that people can just add the file to the category and it appears on the page automatically. WOW. A great way to maintain/update files on a page. Hope you'd consider making this available asap. Amazing plugin- well done!
- September 10, 2020And sort them: acs, desc, Name, size, Date :)!
- August 17, 2020and file date/ version (if itis possible to add a version for exp. 1.0.1)
- July 14, 2020Hi everyone, you can call me "A happy user" if you like, I think display list of files in a category will be cool.
- June 25, 2020Would be awesome if it display size of files on this too. And also ability to filter files by size.

“Replace media” button
Would be great to have "Replace media" button in the media library, this would ease building and updating content on WordPress sites.Leave a comment:
10 Comments:
- October 28, 2020Enable Media Replace plugin is also able to: - replace a file type by another (e.g. PNG > JPG) - update the file name in the DB, including in serialized data (used in Beaver Builder for instance)
- September 15, 2020I would love this function to be included
- September 12, 2020Yes please, that is a great feature!
- September 10, 2020The replace media function would be a valuable time saver. Looking forward to see it happening 😀
- September 10, 2020This would be great to have this part of HappyFiles, I'd be able to rid myself of this one https://wordpress.org/plugins/enable-media-replace/.
- September 8, 2020include the Replace Media function and you can increase the price still valuable ;)
- August 12, 2020@Thomas replace media means you "swap" an exisitng image file with a newer one. By default in WP, if you have eg an image "my-image.jpg" and some time later you get/have an updated version and you upload that one into WP, then WP change it into "my-image-1.jpg" automatically and keep both versions. Usually the purpose is to change an image while not having to mess with delete old file, upload new file, edit the post/product/page/... everywhere that image is used and select the new one. Instead, you just go to media library select the "old" one, click replace, select the new one and it's done. All "instances" where the old image was used has now been replaced with the new one without having to edit X locations. Hope this clear up the purpose ;)
- July 2, 2020I also +1. What is meant is to emulate the functionality of this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/enable-media-replace/ It's a real time saver when one needs to update a pdf, or image
- June 1, 2020Take a look at https://wordpress.org/plugins/enable-media-replace/ It allows you to replace a media file in your library while keeping the same slug to not break the link to the pages that the current one is used on
- May 25, 2020Lots of upvotes for this idea, already :) I am just not really sure what the "Replace Media" button would do exactly? Can someone shed some light on how it's supposed to work?
-
Colour coded folders
It would be nice to have colour coded folders, so folders have a coloured stripe on the left and images would have a colour dot, so I can quickly identify the folder even when viewing "All Categories".Leave a comment:
2 Comments:
- September 11, 2020Thomas, I think replace media means you can replace an image across your site without having to update your website content. Means this feature replace an image with the exact same name for all screen sizes and other occurances.
- May 29, 2020Good idea.

Dynamic Folders
Similar to what Wicked Folders can do: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wicked-folders/ But with more power! It would be great if we could create dynamic folders based on: 1. The post type the attachment is attached to 2. Upload date 3. A custom field value (for power users)newLeave a comment:
6 Comments:
- September 13, 2020For a long time I have been looking for a way to automatically sort media by the post/page they are associated with... so that option would be very useful.
- August 31, 2020A count of media items which are actually used in posts (and those unused items also)
- August 27, 2020Create a dynamic folder that collects photos uploaded by a particular author or collect photos based on an article category.
- June 6, 2020The ability to create dynamic folders for media types such as pdf, svg, etc would be a nice to have feature.
- June 6, 2020It'd also be useful if we could create dynamic folders based off the taxonomy of pages and custom post types. Dynamic folder creation based on the content or value of custom fields would be a handy power feature, as well.
- May 24, 2020I'll add media size as a dynamic folder. For example, sometimes I'm searching for the perfect hero image and only want to see photos that are over 1800 pixels wide.
-
Rename Files (individual and in bulk)
Available in media library list view.newLeave a comment:
4 Comments:
- October 6, 2020This would be very helpful if it could rename the files to the Alt Text. For example, the Brizy Page Builder's sync function renames all the media files, even the fonts, to a generic name. Not good for SEO.
- September 15, 2020This would be a great function to include.
- August 28, 2020This would be awesome and such a time saver.
- August 12, 2020Would be great if this includes an option to "auto" rename based on the file title. So eg I call an attachment "Beautiful temple in India" but the filename is DC2379273982.jpg, then auto rename makes it something like "beatiful-temple-in-india.jpg" which is much better in terms of SEO.

View Folder & All its Subfolder Images
One thing that seems to be missing is the ability to see all files from a folder and its subfolders, by clicking the main parent folder. I know I can add images to multiple categories, but it would be faster/more user friendly to also have an option to view all files in the current folder + all subfolders.Leave a comment:
2 Comments:
- September 16, 2020You could build in a inherit option. That when clicked on all subfolders (kid folder) files will be shown in parent folders.
- September 12, 2020As i remember this function was there before the the last bigger update as the behavior to open a folder changed. Honestly i struggle every time now where my pictures are, clicking on a folder with subfolders. I found the older way more intuitive and i agree to have the option the show images of subfolders or not.

Type + (plus) To Add Tree Structure
Create categories and subcategories while typing or pasting modified excel csv. + plus symbol would create category and , comma symbol would add subcategories inside the category just created Type (or paste) this: +Animals, Monkeys, Donkeys, +Cars, Audi, VW To get this structure: - Animals - Monkey - Donkey - Cars - Audi - VW If someone needs a deeper category tree: Type (or paste) this: +Animals, +Monkey, +Donkey, Mini Donkey To get this structure: - Animals - Monkey - Donkey - Mini Donkey Going back to root level: add minus(es) in front ----Cars, +Audi, +VWLeave a comment:

Duplicate Categories
Would be great to be able to duplicate category with a shortcut like CMD+D or via the custom context menu and have it automatically created names like this (needs the setting turned on) - Category - Category2 - Category3 This way we could easily A/B test different galleries & etc for different URL / UTM'snewLeave a comment:

More Sort By Options
Like being able to organize your files on your machine, it might be nice to be able to organize your media by: Name, Date, Type, & Size in both Ascending and Descending order.newLeave a comment:
3 Comments:
- November 24, 2020And please add manual sorting order (very useful for the Gallery)
- November 11, 2020As far as I saw almost all of these options should be available in list view (standard wordpress feature). But I agree: File size would be a nice addition. Also, to make these available in grid view. And to be able to omit certain columns, e.g. "uploaded to".
- September 28, 2020Also by filename.
-
More Useful List view
Default WP list view could be better. Having details view instead of thumbnails would be great also, use cases: Not having image files, for example 25 PDF's or so. Having different varioations from one image, differences will not be visible in thumbnail, but would be easily visible in list view. Lots easier to navigate. Here's a quick mockup & comparison: https://prnt.sc/u8fsz8improveLeave a comment:

Elementor Widget for HappyFiles Gallery Shortcode
It would be amazing if you could build an Elementor widget for the gallery shortcode. Just with the same parameters like linkTo, columns, categories etc. Not sure but maybe plugins like EleBuilder or Unlimited Elements could help coding it.

Make it easier to remove media/page/post from a folder
Right now, it seems the only way to remove media/pages/posts from a folder is to drag them into the uncategorized folder. While this isn't terrible, it creates more work if you have more than one folder associated with the asset. Then you have to drag them back into those other folders. The more folders associated, the more the work. Kinda like throwing out the baby with the bath water. Being able to select the asset and drag it OUT of the folder would be nice. Having a quick edit feature in there too wouldn't hurt. -PHLeave a comment:
-
Assign Categories When Editing a File/Post/Page
Allow for adjusting of folders for media/posts/pages in the actual editor itself so that you can choose multiple folders to cross-list an asset in. This is just pure convenience however when you are creating a new page/post from scratch you are already putting tags and categories on there. This just makes good sense. -PHLeave a comment:
-
Shortcodes HappyFiles
As we can display in the backend certain media files, products, or articles according to the category they belong to, it would be really great to be able to do the same thing in frontend through specific shortcodes as does "Shortcode Ultimate" with its shortcode [su_produits ....] It would look like something like this : [hf_product_categorie_name....] (for products) [hf_post_categorie_name....] (for posts) [hf_media_categorie_name....] (for medias)Leave a comment:

Automatically Assign Users to Specific Categories and Automatically Sort
I'm creating a membership site for artists and it would be great if each member could be automatically assigned a category where their media files would be automatically sorted. If I had to create and assign the categories that would be workable if they would then be automatically sorted by user name. Thanks for the great plugin!Leave a comment:

- August 30, 2020Great idea!
- June 18, 2020I totally agree about this idea that would also apply well to any collaborative WP site. Thanks too for the great and very promising plugin.
- May 26, 2020Yes! For example, in the plugin "File Manager Plugin For WordPress" there is a function "Auto Unique Folder for every user". It would not be bad to have it in HappyFiles!

Changelog

SVG Upload, Gallery Lightbox, WP Media Folder Importer
This release brings one of the most requested features to HappyFiles: HappyFiles Gallery lightbox. You’ve got the following lightbox settings at your fingertips as well: fullscreen, thumbnails, zoom. The lightbox runs on lightgallery.js
To enable the lightbox via the happyfiles_gallery shortcode please add the following parameters:
- lightbox=”true”
- lightboxFullscreen=”true” (optional)
- lightboxZoom=”true” (optional)
- lightboxThumbnails=”true” (optional)
As a HappyFiles Pro user you can now whitelist/blacklist sites right from your HappyFiles account. Use this new feature to further secure access to HappyFiles Pro license.
HappyFiles Pro can now replace your SVG plugin 🙂 Pro users can enable SVG upload, sanitization & preview in version 1.4+ via the HappyFiles settings.
If you’ve been using the WP Media Folder (by JoomUnited) to manage your media files up until now, you can now import your WP Media Folder data with a single click into HappyFiles.
In case you are using WPML or any other plugin that duplicates media files, and you are experience issues with your HappyFiles file counter, you can now enable the new “Alternative Count” setting. This should fix the counter issue, but it requires additional queries. So make sure to only enabled when really needed.

One-Click Importer, New Folder UI, Create Multiple Categories
HappyFiles 1.3 focuses on saving you even more time and improve your media organizing workflow. You can now import folders created with other media folder plugins and delete their plugin data afterwards, all with one click. The importer works for the following plugins:
- FileBird (v4)
- Enhanced Media Library
- Folders (by Premio)
- Wicked Folders
- Real Media Library
When HappyFiles detects folder data created by one of the plugins above, you will see a notification in your WordPress dashboard. The importer is located under the “Import” tab on your HappyFiles settings page.
If you have enabled “Assign multiple categories” you can now also enable the new “Enable to remove an item from all categories ” setting. This way when you uncategorize an item that has been assign to other categories it will automatically be uncategorized from all those folders.
There is a new “Delete Plugin Data” button on the HappyFiles settings page, that allows you to delete all data stored by HappyFiles.
We’ve gotten rid of the arrow icon for folders that contain sub folders. Folders with sub folders now have an icon with “+” indicator next to it. You can toggle sub categories by clicking on it.
You can now create multiple categories at once, simply by comma separating your new category names.
The folder previously collapsed when creating/deleting categories. It now stays in place.
There is also no more page reload trigger when sorting your categories alphabetically.
In terms of fixes the HappyFiles sidebar should now be clickable again when using it inside a media modal. Shortcode parameter are all working now for the happyfiles_gallery shortcode.

Create Galleries from HappyFiles Folders
This update brings an exciting new feature. You can now create beautiful and highly customisable galleries from your HappyFiles folders. Either via the [happyfiles_gallery categories="Cat 1, Cat2"] shortcode or by using the “HappyFiles Gallery” Gutenberg block as shown here:
The [happyfiles_gallery] shortcode has the following parameters:
- categories: comma separated list of category names, slugs, or IDs (recommended to use IDs as they don’t change)
- max: Specify the max. number of images you want to show (default: shows all images)
- columns: Number of columns of your gallery (1 – 6)
- orderBy: date (default), none, ID, author, name, title, type, modified, rand
- order: ASC (ascending), DESC (descending)
- imageSize: thumbnail, medium, large, full
- linkTo: attachment, media, none (default)
-
includeChildren: Set to true to show images of sub categories
- crop: Set to true to crop your images (true by default)
- caption: Set to true to show image caption (false by default)
HappyFiles’ translation into German has also been approved, finally. Kudos to Simon Kraft 🙂
Your HappyFiles sidebar state will be saved from now. The mobile view and has been improved. Unnecessary database queries have been removed.
Plus, a few more bug fixes that you can see in the list below.

Sort Alphabetically, Better Category Inspector & Various Fixes
Many of you have asked for alphabetical sorting. With this version you can finally auto-sort all your categories alphabetically (ascending and descending) by clicking the new three-dots icon next to the “Categories” title in the HappyFiles sidebar.
The category inspector has been added to the list view (just right-click on any files/post, page, etc. to view all assigned categories). It nows also shows the category hierarchy for better inspection. If an item has no category then “Uncategorized” is shown, which is helpful when viewing “All Categories”.
Your stored license key under Settings > HappyFiles is now hidden, so its safe to add to your client’s site without having to share your license key.
A new setting named Disable AJAX (List View) is available. When set the AJAX-like results refresh in the media library’s list view is disabled. If you are using any plugin alongside HappyFiles that alters the media library’s output, such as Imagify, you might want to try enabling this setting, in case you are experience any issues.
There are a few more fixes, which you can see below. As always, enjoy and thanks to everyone for making such great use of the new roadmap 🙂

Categorize Posts & Pages, One-Click Plugin Updates
With this update to version 1.0 we official leave the beta stage. Let’s start with two highly requested additions for HappyFiles PRO.
Categorization for posts and pages: PRO users can now categorize posts, pages, custom post types, WooCommerce products, orders, and coupons. You can select the post types you want to enable categorization for under: Settings > HappyFiles > Post Types (PRO). Enjoy!
One-Click plugin updates: Up until now PRO users had to log in to their HappyFiles account to download the latest version. Once you have downloaded version 1.0 you will receive download notifications whenever there is a new HappyFiles PRO update available right in your WordPress dashboard, and update with a click on “Update now”. Same process as with any other WordPress plugin.

Multiple Categories & Category Inspector
It’s been only 10 days since the last release, but you asked for this, so here goes:
You can now assign multiple categories to a file. This feature is disabled by default. Allowing you to only assign one category to a file. To enable multiple categories go to “Settings > HappyFiles” and select the “Assign multiple categories” option.
Forgot which categories a file is in? Up until now you had to manually open each category to figure this out.
This release introduces the category inspector. Simply right-click on any file to see all the categories it is assigned to. Click on any of its categories in the custom menu to directly browse into it. Another great little time saver 🙂

Initial Release
I am super excited to announce the official release of HappyFiles. A WordPress plugin that helps you organise your entire media library files into categories via simple drag & drop.
The free version of HappyFiles allows you to create up to 10 categories and is available for download via https://wordpress.org/plugins/happyfiles/. If you need unlimited categories and usage on all your sites feel free to grab the lifetime deal for HappyFiles Pro.
HappyFiles excels in performance and a great and minimal UI/UX. More exciting features are added as time goes on and users submit ideas.
Assets are only loaded on the relevant screens in the admin area and when editing a page with a page builder like Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, etc.
HappyFiles categories a simple custom taxonomy terms. Your files and file paths are not altered in any way.
You can directly upload new files to a specific category, and resize/toggle the category sidebar to your liking.
In the admin area under “Settings > HappyFiles” you choose select which user role can manage media categories (Category Editing).
I hope you enjoy this first release!
