Custom Naming for Upload Folders
 

OK, so as a CMS the default WP media library folder options leave a lot to be desired. Does anyone know how to organize your uploads into folders with names that make sense.

Is there an easy way to have all your images in a folder called, oh I don't know, IMAGES :lol:

Or all you meeting minutes in a folder called "MINUTES" etc.

I have clients that constantly upload meeting minutes etc and it would be huge to have them organized with names that made sense.

I've have found out a little about the wp_upload_dir() function stored in wp-includes/functions.php
And I know how to make it so they all just go into the main Uploads folder but, haven't found a slick solution for having folders organized by custom names.

This is really more of a WordPress issue. You might find better resources asking on WordPress.org.

That said, I did a quick google search for "custom upload folders wordpress" and the very first result was
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-upload-dir/

Thanks Nick but, that plugin is still tied to Wordpress values/variables that aren't as helpful or flexible as I'd like for proper organization.

I'm checking around. One would expect to be able to use your own names as long as the folder is inside of the correct uploads dir but, it's not built that way.
