What would you like to see?

When uploading a lot of documents it gets messy quite quickly because of the share amount of documents.

Can I rename the custom-documents folder and add more folders to the documents folder to make the experience easier to work with. For example like this:

Folder: Food
Folder: Recipes
Folder: Research
Folder: Appliances

You get it, this way it's easy to get organized.

Managing larger amounts of documents with many users is quite difficult at the moment.

Agreed, we actually have designs to implement this and it will be done pretty soon. It is indeed hard to manage many documents as they all sit in a single folder.

Excellent! That's exactly the question I came to ask. I have md documentation arranged by year and I'd like to import it for AnythingLLM into folders called 2024, 20205, 2026 and so on. Any news on progress?
