WP Media Directories

Show folders humans care about. Hide plugin clutter.

Cache, form uploads, backup dirs, and marker-hidden trees stay out of the sidebar—without deleting disk contents.

Hidden directories are basedir subdirectories excluded from the Folder tree via built-in denylist, settings overrides, or a hide marker file. Date upload paths are never Folders—they remain Unassigned. Attachments under hidden/date paths still appear in All media / Unassigned.
