SleekView for WP Media Folder
SleekView reads the wpmf-category taxonomy and the postmeta JoomUnited's plugin writes, then renders the library as a sortable, filterable table with category, file size, MIME type, and uploader as real columns.

WP Media Folder's taxonomy is great for navigation. Cross-category review needs a table.
WP Media Folder by JoomUnited organises attachments through a custom wpmf-category taxonomy and writes file metadata (wpmf_size, wpmf_filetype) plus the standard WordPress attachment postmeta on every save.
The default admin replaces the media grid with a folder browser keyed by that taxonomy, perfect for navigation but harder for the cross-category questions a marketing or ops team asks weekly. SleekView reads the wpmf-category taxonomy joined to attachments and renders the result as one sortable table. Category sits next to file size, MIME type, uploader, and upload date so the heaviest assets and the largest categories surface immediately.
Inline edits go through WP Media Folder's API and standard term assignment, so the plugin's hooks fire normally and any cloud sync rules listening for category reassignment run as expected.

Features
What SleekView gives you for WP Media Folder
Categories as real columns
Surface wpmf-category alongside file size, MIME type, and uploader. Library audits move from a per-category walk to a sortable column set.
Inline edits through standard term assignment
Bulk-reassign category or rename in the row. Term writes go through WordPress so WP Media Folder's hooks fire and cloud sync rules run as expected.
Honest cloud framing
Cloud sync stays a WP Media Folder feature. SleekView reads the local taxonomy and postmeta, so the table reflects what is in the WordPress library regardless of which cloud the source files live on.
Audience
Who uses SleekView for WP Media Folder
Marketing teams
Filter to a campaign category and sort by upload date to confirm the asset queue is on track ahead of launch.
Site auditors
Sort across categories by file size to catch oversized hero images and stray video files before backup windows force the conversation.
Editorial leads
Group by uploader to see which contributor is uploading to which category, useful for accessibility audits and content reviews.
The bigger picture
Why WP Media Folder still needs a table layer
WP Media Folder solves the navigation problem the default media library never tackled, and the wpmf-category taxonomy keeps that organisation portable and theme-friendly. The trade-off is that the taxonomy browser is the only navigation surface, and answering questions across categories means walking through them one by one. SleekView keeps the taxonomy browser intact and adds a sortable table on top.
Marketing filters by campaign category, ops sorts by size for hotspots, finance groups by uploader for contributor audits. The taxonomy and the table are complementary surfaces on the same data, one for navigation and reassignment, the other for the reviews a tree cannot answer in one screen.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView for WP Media Folder
No. WP Media Folder continues to own the folder browser, drag-and-drop reassignment, and any cloud sync configuration. SleekView reads the wpmf-category taxonomy and attachment postmeta and lays them out as a real audit table inside admin.
Yes. The free version already stores categories in the wpmf-category taxonomy and wpmf_size in postmeta, so the core columns work as soon as the plugin is active. Pro features like watermarking and gallery layouts surface as additional columns when active.
It covers them as far as WordPress knows. WP Media Folder records cloud-synced attachments in the local media library with the same wpmf-category and postmeta keys, so SleekView sees them. The actual files may live on Google Drive, but the table reflects WordPress's view of the library.
Yes. SleekView writes through standard WordPress term assignment, so the plugin's hooks fire normally and any cloud sync rules listening for category reassignment run the same way they would from the WP Media Folder UI.
Yes. WordPress writes post_author on every attachment, and SleekView surfaces it as a filterable column for per-contributor reviews.
Yes. Each saved view captures column set, filters, and sort order. Gate it by WordPress capability so marketing, ops, and finance each see the slice that matches their role.
Yes. Any filtered set exports as CSV with the same columns the view shows. Useful for storage audits and contributor reviews.
No. SleekView paginates and queries against the standard wp_term_taxonomy and wp_postmeta indexes WordPress and WP Media Folder already use.
