 * Renaming and deleting a folder from the WP_MLF plugin has been unsuccessful. 
   Each time I select a folder and click delete or rename button I get an error 
   message “No items where selected”.
 * To manually do this I deleted the folder via ftp, added the folder with new name
   and then “Check For New Folders” in the plugin page to view the new folder but
   the old folder still exist since the entry is in the database.
 * To remove the old folder from showing in the plugin page I removed the record
   entry from wp_mgmlp_folders, wp_postmeta and wp_posts tables.
 * Is it possible to do rename/delete folders from the plugin page or should it 
   done manually the way I descried above?
 * Thanks

 * Please read the [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/media-library-plus/#faq):
 * To delete a folder, right click (Ctrl-click with Macs) on a folder. A popup menu
   will appear with the options, ‘Delete this folder?’ and ‘Hide this folder?’. 
   Click the delete option.
 * A folder needs to be empty before Media Library Folders will allow you to delete
   it.
