Need drag & drop moves between folders, physical file relocation, and flexible date folder options? **MedienUpload Pro** is available separately at [plugins.froendhoff.com](https://plugins.froendhoff.com/MU/).

No. Lite is fully functional without any license or purchase. ### Can I move existing media into folders? New uploads are assigned to the active folder automatically. Moving existing files with drag & drop and physical relocation is available in MedienUpload Pro. ### What happens when a folder is renamed? The physical directory is renamed and stored file paths of affected media are updated. ### What permissions are required?
