Media Folders

Folders help you organize your media library as your content grows. Keep your files structured and easy to find with support for unlimited nesting levels.

Creating Folders

1. In Media, click New Folder
2. Enter a folder name
3. Click Create

To create a nested folder:

1. Navigate to the parent folder
2. Click New Folder
3. The new folder is created inside the current folder

Nested Folders

Screenzzie supports unlimited folder nesting levels, allowing you to create deep organizational structures.

Breadcrumb Navigation

When inside nested folders, a breadcrumb trail shows your current location:

Media > Images > Products > Summer Collection

Click any breadcrumb to jump directly to that folder level.

Tree View Mode

For complex folder hierarchies, use the Tree View toggle to see your entire folder structure at a glance:

• Expand/collapse folders with the arrow icons
• Drag files directly to folders in the tree
• See file counts per folder

Best Practices

• Plan your structure - Sketch out your folder hierarchy before creating it
• Use consistent naming - Stick to a naming convention (e.g., lowercase, hyphens)
• Don't nest too deep - 3-4 levels is usually sufficient
• Archive old campaigns - Move completed campaigns to an "Archive" folder instead of deleting
• Review quarterly - Clean up unused folders and reorganize as needed
