Overview
A busy WordPress site can fill up fast. Hundreds of pages, posts and media files in one long list make it slow to find what you need. Wicked Folders Pro addresses this with virtual folders that group content in the dashboard, so editors can sort things the way they think about them.
The folders exist only in the admin area, so your site's URL structure stays untouched. You create and manage them with drag and drop, assign items one at a time or in bulk, and search or filter within folders. It suits bloggers, content creators and teams that share a dashboard.
Features
- Virtual folder system: Organize pages, posts, media and custom post types into folders without changing URLs or permalinks, so your public site structure stays the same.
- Drag-and-drop folder management: Create folders and sort content by dragging items into place, which keeps day-to-day organizing quick and easy to learn.
- Works with all content types: Folders apply to pages, posts, media files and custom post types, so one method covers every kind of content on your site.
- Bulk folder assignment: Assign or move several items to a folder in one step, which helps when you are sorting a large backlog of existing content.
- Folder search and filter: Search and filter options help you find content inside your folders without scrolling through the full list of items.
- Customizable folder names: Name folders however you like so the structure matches your own organizational style and content plan.
- Team-friendly organization: Editors and contributors can work from the same folder structure, which keeps content organized in a consistent way across a team.
- Cleaner dashboard navigation: Folders reduce clutter in the WordPress admin and give you quicker access to the content you use most.
Best for
- Bloggers with large archives of posts and pages
- Sites with crowded media libraries
- Teams managing content across multiple editors
