Actually a helpful plugin. But has not been working with WPBakery Page Builder for some time now. Among other things, it blocks adding new images to a gallery.

This plugin is great, super helpful. I have been using it to create categories for media items that I then use with Loopers in Theme.co’s Pro theme with Grids and Sliders. Saved me tons of work.

Thank you, a great plug-in.
With almost 14,000 photos and after I lost all my categories with Enhanced Media Library plugin which I used for 6 years, this plugin (Media Library Categories) gave me a chance to make new categories again.
Hope there will be a choice to remove the appearance of number of photos in each category.
Cheers

After using the free version for an evening, I popped for the pro version.
I found this to be a terrific addition to my media library toolkit as it provides good options for categorizing images. This is helpful when I’ve uploaded dozens of images and categorized them, and I’m ready to create topic-based sliders or galleries. I can now easily select a category, then choose images within that category without scrolling through 100’s of unrelated images.
The developer is responsive and helful to questions.

So the plugin imports all categories from posts to media categories. So that isn’t right. Why is that? Then if you delete a category from media then automatically delete the category from posts. So all is a mess. Disappointed.

This was exactly what I was looking for, it installed without any issues and so far appears to be working just fine. A small improvement would be the ability to filter the media list to see only images that have not been categorized at all. Or, at least allow the the media list to be sorted by using the ‘Categories’ label at the top of the categories column in the list. Many thanks.

I had to do the functions.php fix in the FAQ, and also had to make it “media_categories” and not “categories_media”. I don’t know if that was just me, but if anyone runs into problems try that, also make sure you don’t have extra quotes or anything copy straight from the code box.
After buying Premium, i could transition from Enhanced Media Library to this one. I have over 20,000 images and was not looking forward to reorganizing them.
The only things missing in this plugin are grid editing, and bulk delete/assign from grid. Grid is just so much easier when dealing with lots of files. If that capability is added all will be gold.
That nag aside, I’m using this now and look forward to more improvements.

When using the Media Library Categories with WPML with separate media categories from post categories; then it looses it’s wpml compatibility, is there a fix for this?
(When it shared the categories with the posts the categories were seperate from wpml languages)
Meaning the separate media categories is not seperate from each WPML languages but instead are shared across languages.
If you look into this for me I will gradly translate the plugin to danish as it’s my native language as I would like to have this plugin for my multilanguage site.

Thank you! This plugin does for free something simple yet included in PRO version of other similar plugins – bulk category assign ????
Unfortunately, images do not show up in the media library when filtered for the corresponding category

No idea which problem the one-star rating guys have.
I installed it, created first categories and was able to bulk assign files to the category.
Also filtering in the media library per category works, and that’s exactly what i need to do.

Great plugin, thanks so much! Don’t know why other people are complaining of lack of features in free version.

No usable features unless you pay for premium.

Works perfect, the ability to bulk edit (for free) is what sold me over other plugins.

It baffles me why people are so unkind. I looked at the profiles of some of the negative reviewers and their only reviews are negative ones.
The negatives for this plugin are 1-star, as negative as possible. That is insane as the plugin is very straight-forward, easy to use, and works as advertised.
All features are included in the free version, save 1. I suspect the majority of users won’t need it but if either (1) you do need it or (2) would like to thank the generosity of the developer — the price for the paid version is very low.
One feature I noticed in the free version that is a paid feature in most others is bulk edit. Very nice. Thanks Jeffrey.

I’m using the free version and it’s working fine. (I can’t imagine why anyone would post “Useless without paid feautre” or “Useless. Not free”). Perhaps they wanted this simple plugin to do more than it was designed to do.
Simple to setup and use. Of course it took time to assign a category (or two) to every image, but it if you do it with bulk selects, it goes faster.
No complaints. Thanks for this free plugin.

Hi,
I like this plugin, it’s simple and easy to use. I currently use it on 2 sites with lots of mediafiles, but with your plugin sorting them is easy!

I translated your plugin into Japanese. It is pending approval.
Would you please translate my plugin “Media from FTP” to Dutch?

“The ability to filter by categories when actually using the media library, as opposed to just being able to sort media into categories that do nothing productivity wise, is the single raison d’etre of media category plugins. Without it, they are useless. ”

When I installed this plugin I had no idea it would be affecting my blog posts. After a while of using this plugin I noticed my Categories widget for my blog posts had an inaccurate number like 65, even though I only had about 20 posts in there. Clicking on the post category would of course only show 20 posts. So where was the extra 45 coming from? The media library! Why does this plugin connect the blog posts to the media library? They should be separate. I removed the plugin but somehow my blog was still showing that I have 65 posts. I had to reinstall the plugin, go through each image and change the category one by one, remove the plugin, then delete the category. A painful process! Use Enhanced Media Library instead!

This plug-in makes it super easy to create categories and assign them to images. You can even add and remove categories from images in bulk. Wonderful!

Funciona perfectamente y es fácil de usar. Para hacer que no use las categorías de las entradas y use categorías propias, hay que a?adir lo siguiente en tu fichero functions.php:
/**
* separate media categories from post categories
* use a custom category called ‘category_media’ for the categories in the media library
*/
add_filter( ‘wpmediacategory_taxonomy’, function(){ return ‘category_media’; } ); //requires PHP 5.3 or newer
