Administrators create and rename collections. Upload- capable users organize attachments they can edit. Each file can belong to multiple collections. Features: add/remove selected files to/from collections; unassigned view; search; collection and MIME-type filters; 24-item pagination; title, plain-text caption and description editing; image alt text; native WordPress media-list collection filter and column. Collections never move, rename, compress or delete your files. WordPress handles uploads. No third-party service, account, telemetry or API key is required. Deactivating or removing this plugin preserves media and collection data. This release does not include checkout, license-key activation, private update delivery, cloud storage, physical folders or drag-and-drop sorting. Updating attachment metadata does not rewrite existing page blocks. ## Screenshots [⌊Organize media in virtual collections while preserving original file URLs.⌉⌊Organize media in virtual collections while preserving original file URLs.⌉[ Organize media in virtual collections while preserving original file URLs.

Upload media through WordPress, then select files and add them to a collection. ## FAQ ### Does a collection move or rename the original file? No. Collections are virtual groups stored in WordPress. Original files, URLs and file bytes stay in place. One file can belong to more than one collection. ### Who can create collections and organize files? Administrators with the manage_options permission can create and rename collections. Users with upload_files permission can open the manager and organize only attachments they have permission to edit. ### Which media files can I find? You can search media titles, captions and descriptions, filter by collection or unassigned state, and filter images, PDF documents, audio or video. The manager shows 24 results per page. ### Will editing alternative text or a caption update pages where the image already appears? The plugin updates the attachment record. Existing page blocks may retain their own saved alternative text or captions. Review and update those blocks separately when needed. ### Does this plugin upload files to an external service? No. The plugin does not use a remote service, account, API key or telemetry. Files are uploaded through the standard WordPress uploader. ### What happens when I remove the plugin? Your media files, metadata and collection records are preserved. Reinstalling and activating the plugin restores its collection interface. ### Does this version include image compression, cloud storage or drag-and-drop folders? No. Version 0.1.2 provides the collection, search and metadata features described above. It does not include physical file folders, compression, cloud storage, drag- and-drop sorting, a paid licence system or private automatic update delivery. ### Does it manage a whole multisite network? The interface is designed for an individual site’s media library. It does not provide network-wide collections or cross-site media management. Multisite network activation has not been validated for this release. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “SSF Media Manager” is open source software.

Existing collection records are upgraded without changing their IDs, memberships, metadata or original media files. Collection changes pause safely if a migration conflict or database error needs attention. #### 0.1.1 Added translation-ready interface strings, plural-aware selection counts and clearer request validation. Invalid rename requests cannot create a new collection. Collection data, file URLs and media permissions are preserved. #### 0.1.0 Initial working release. ## Meta * Version **0.1.2** * Last updated **23 hours ago** * Active installations **Fewer than 10** * WordPress version ** 6.4 or higher ** * Tested up to **7.1.3** * PHP version ** 8.1 or higher ** * Language * [English (US)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ssf-media-manager/) * Tags * [attachments](https://vec.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/attachments/)[collections](https://vec.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/collections/) [media](https://vec.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/media/)[media library](https://vec.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/media-library/) [organization](https://vec.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/organization/) * [Advanced View](https://vec.wordpress.org/plugins/ssf-media-manager/advanced/) ## Ratings No reviews have been submitted yet.
