What it does

Organise, shrink, and get out again

Media plugins usually hold your folder structure hostage in their own tables. This one imports from ten of them and exports everything to CSV whenever you want.

Real folders

Drag files into a nested folder tree that works in the media modal too, not just on the library screen. Soft-delete trash means a wrong drag is not fatal.

Image optimiser

Bulk convert to WebP with quality control and automatic fallbacks, with a running total of the space you have saved.

SVG sanitiser

Allow SVG uploads without opening the door to scripted payloads. Every file is stripped before it lands.

Inside the plugin

Every module in one interface

Folders, duplicates, the optimiser and imports all live in the same screen, with light, gray and dark admin themes.

Feature set

Ten modules, one plugin

Each one replaces a plugin you are probably already running.

Nested folders

Unlimited depth, drag and drop, and available inside the media modal where you actually need it.

Duplicate finder

Hash-based grouping with a safe merge that repoints every post using the old attachment.

WebP conversion

Bulk or on-upload, with quality settings and original retention.

SVG sanitising

Scripts, event handlers and external references stripped before the file is saved.

Ten importers

Bring your structure across from the major folder plugins without re-sorting a single file.

REST API

Over thirty endpoints, so your own tools and apps can read and write the library.

Gutenberg block

Insert a folder as a gallery block, filtered live.

Soft-delete trash

Deleted files sit in trash until you empty it, with one-click restore.

CSV export and import

Bulk-edit alt text, titles, captions and folder assignments in a spreadsheet.

Getting started

Moving a messy library

Install and scan

MediaNest indexes the existing library without moving anything.

Import your structure

If you are coming from another folder plugin, pull the tree across in one pass.

Clean up

Run the duplicate finder, then the optimiser, and watch the storage number drop.

Work normally

Folders appear everywhere WordPress shows media, including inside the editor.

Questions

Before you buy

Does it move my files on disk?
No. Folders are a database structure, so uninstalling never scatters your uploads or breaks a single image URL.
What happens if I deactivate it?
Your files stay exactly where WordPress expects them. You lose the folder view, not the media.
Will the duplicate merge break posts?
No. Merging repoints every post, page and meta field that referenced the removed copy before it is deleted.
Is WebP safe for older browsers?
Originals are kept and served as a fallback where WebP is not supported.
Can I use it on a client site?
Yes, with a licence per site. Agency bundles are available.
