Media Gallery Folder

Magento allows the media gallery access to the directory wysiwyg and catalog only. Unfortunately, other directories cannot be added easily, unless you create a module as explained in Modify media library folder permissions which is not suitable for most store owners.

We decided to close this problem by creating an interface where directories can be added easily to the Media Gallery.

Business Value

  • No development work required.
  • Practical for small businesses, which cannot afford expensive agency support.

System Requirements

  • Magento 2.4.3-p1 or higher
