Reviews
what people actually sayWicked Folders is well-regarded as a practical and easy-to-use organizer for WordPress pages and posts, though a notable complaint about folder assignments disappearing after auto-updates and a pricing structure that lacks mid-tier subscription options are worth considering.
What people like
- +Effectively organizes pages, posts, and media into folders, saving significant time on large sites×5
- +Fast and responsive support, often replying within the same day or under an hour×3
- +Easy to use and non-invasive once set up×3
- +Generous free tier with features users consider premium-level
Common complaints
- −Folder assignments for pages disappeared after an automatic plugin update, requiring users to re-sort everything
- −CSS conflicts reported that break the layout and hide buttons
- −Drag-and-drop interface for moving pages into folders is not intuitive and lacks onboarding examples or screenshots
- −Pricing lacks a mid-tier subscription option (e.g., 3–5 sites), making it expensive for small multi-site users
- −Missing bulk media download/upload functionality available in competing plugins
