<h3>** 2025 UPDATE **</h3>
<p>BuddyDrive is now actively maintained once again, with ongoing updates for performance, compatibility, and security.</p>
<h3>Let your members upload and share files with ease — right inside your BuddyPress or BuddyBoss community.</h3>
<p>BuddyDrive is the simplest way to give users their own personal file storage — and the ability to share files or folders with friends or the wider community. Whether it’s documents, PDFs, images, or other uploads, BuddyDrive keeps everything organized and accessible inside each user’s profile or groups.<br />
This plugin uses the BuddyPress Attachment API for seamless integration, with support for both member profiles and group pages. It’s great for sharing personal files, collaborating in groups, or offering community downloads.<br />
With the free version of BuddyDrive, users can:</p>
<ul>
<li>Upload and manage their own files</li>
<li>Share files publicly, with friends, or keep them private</li>
<li>Organize uploads into folders</li>
<li>Control visibility directly within the user or group interface</li>
</ul>
<p>BuddyDrive is now under active development with regular updates and ongoing support — rebuilt and maintained by a new team committed to making it fast, secure, and compatible with the latest versions of WordPress, BuddyPress, and BuddyBoss.</p>
<p>BuddyPress is available in English, French, Dutch and Brazilian Portuguese.</p>
<h3>Need more advanced sharing options?</h3>
<p>BuddyDrive Pro adds powerful features like:</p>
<ul>
<li>Password-protected file access</li>
<li>Sharing with specific members or groups</li>
<li>More flexible content visibility settings</li>
</ul>
<p>Perfect for communities, educators, private groups, and creators who want to deliver content securely and selectively.</p>


BuddyDrive

No one from my readers will understand what does it mean. BuddyDrive is more a name for webmasters than users ;o)
But I love this Plugin !!!

I also would like to raname it simple way


	tested latest release, nothing appear on default page (automatically created by setup).

	downgrade to release 2.0.0, bug still remain (so, is a very old bug ... still present, never fixed).



If a bug remain after a very long period and after a new dev, maybe is best to not use this plugin (and is sadness, seems to be an useful plugin).

bugged since v2.0.0

<p>Media Folders Lite is a simple solution that gives WordPress the ability to create a real custom upload path for your attachments. Also in WP Media Library you can filter them by folders.</p>
<h3>Why?</h3>
<p>Because the default WordPress media file paths are not very good. You can opt for year and month folders which may seem useful if you are reusing content but affect SEO. The other option is to put all the files in a folder that doesn’t scale when you start to have a lot of files.</p>
<p>Too many files in a folder can cause performance issues on file systems like EXT4. If all your files are in the same folder, you will also run into file name conflicts.</p>
<h3>Media Folders Lite – Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Create real folders for your attachments.</li>
<li>Select the desired folder when uploading an attachment.</li>
<li>Filter attachments by folders in WP Media Library.</li>
</ul>
