Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm/issues/4244
How are you running AnythingLLM?
Docker Alma Linux server
What happened?
It doesn't matter what folder I create or re-use they always end up in custom-documents and not the folder I have selected.
Are there known steps to reproduce?
Percana, the one that was selected, is empty.

custom-documents which was not selected is full of the documents I tried to upload.
@timothycarambat commented on GitHub (Aug 5, 2025):
This has always been the case. If you upload a document via the UI in any method, they always have gone into custom-documents. They have never not gone there in any version of the software ever - this has always been the behavior.
From there you can move files into custom folders you can also create, but this has always been the case.
@JayCroghan commented on GitHub (Aug 7, 2025):
Ok so I see what happened now, when I upload 3k+ files at once, some of them are created in random folders that didn't exist before the upload, why, I do not know, I need to select all, unselect the folders I actually want to keep as they were, and move everything to the folder I want to, then do the same again but delete all of the randomly created folders which now have no images in them.
