<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>

<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

Organize Media Library by Folders

An excellent plugin that fixes a large lack of WordPress.

But, I have found a couple of drawbacks:

1. After moving an image to a folder it will be visible in the backend but not in the frontend.
I have found a solution: Regenerate the images after moving them, but of course that implies the use of a second plugin.

2. I have analyzed the performance of the plugin in an installation from 0 with P3 (Plugin Performance Profiler), and P3 offers some alarming results, I hope that it is for the absence of other plugins. I'm going to test it on a website with more plugins to see what percentage results.

If these aspects improved, I would go up to 5 stars and start using Organize Media Library by Folders in all my WordPress installations.

An excellent plugin, but...
