All of your existing files will be kept in their existing physical folders, and any links pointing to them will continue to work without change. = What if I've used other file organization plugins in the past? = Since Acclectic Media Organizer creates a separate virtual file system, any organization you make will not be affected by any similar plugins you've used in the past or may use in the future. = Can I export my media folders to another server or computer? = The plugin does not support doing so directly within the plugin, but it is a feature we plan to include in the future. However, it is possible to do so by exporting and importing the database tables that host the virtual file system. Please contact support if you'd like help on this. = If I rearrange or delete folders, will I lose my files? = No. When you move or rearrange folders, the files will keep their assigned folders. When you delete a folder, items in the folder will simply become unassigned, but will never be deleted from the file system. = Can I move multiple files at a time? = Yes! In the grid view, simply enable *Bulk select*. Then drag all items to the destination folder. In the list view, select multiple items with check-boxes, and then drag them to the destination folder. == Supported Languages == Acclectic Media Organizer is available in these languages: * Chinese (Simplified) * Chinese (Traditional) * English * French * German * Italian * Japanese * Portugese * Polish * Russian * Spanish == Changelog == = 1.4 - September 14, 2022 = - Changed default theme color to blue. = 1.3 - October 30, 2021 = - Allow scrolling in main control panel. = 1.2 - July 20, 2021 = - Prevent i18n conflicts with other plugins. = 1.1 - July 4, 2021 = - Check for null settings on refresh. = 1.0 - February 24, 2021 = - First public release.
