• I can move/copy files to folders like \uploads\2016\11 but not to the parent \uploads.
    Although I can Add a new file in \upload.
    I like to use the plugin to get rid of the year-month folders.

    I don’t know why this is happening. The \update node has the class needed for receiving a drag and drop element but the drop event is not triggering anything. I’ll look into this more when I have an opportunity.

    I am having this same issue.

    I can move/copy images to child/sibling/parent folders – however I cannot move/copy an image to the root \uploads folder.

    Moving images to the \uploads folder is one of my primary interests in this plugin.

    I’m having the same issue. Plus that each time I try to move a file, I get the following message: https://prntscr.com/f37edx. The strange thing is that dispite of the error message, the file is moved after refreshing the page.

    I investigate this issue some months ago and found that the uploads folder was assigned the proper class to receive drop items but could not account for why the drop was not triggered. Since then I have noted there are occasional times when the root folder will accept files; I was in one folder and tried to drag files to the root. It failed I opened a second folder and then returned to the first and successful moved some files to the root. But this does not happen consistently. That is all I can tell you at this time.

    jerry74,
    https://prntscr.com/f37edx. does not seem to be the image showing the error message.

    Oops, sorry, posted the wrong link. This is the correct one: https://prntscr.com/f8fi8j

    by the way, the site is running on WordPress 4.7.4 / PHP 7.0.18

    Ok, from this it telling us that there may be a problem with the paths to your images that is not consistent with what Media Library Folders is expecting. What you can do to help me get a better idea of what is going on is to turn on WordPress debugging. The way to do that is edit the wp-config.php file and change

    define('WP_DEBUG', false);

    to

    define('WP_DEBUG', true);
    define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
    define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false);
    @ini_set('display_errors', 0);

    (Be sure to change this back when you are done.)

    Now different kinds of messages, some will not be related to Media Library Folders, will be written to a debug.log file in the wp-content folder. Try moving a file and then send the debug.log to me at [email protected].
