    Hi,
    thanks for the plug in – it works as expected but one thing is strange. When opening the “add google drive file” I get a mixed list from files and folders from my google drive. Moreover some files and folders are doubled and empty although they do not exist!
    Is there a way to “clear” this view or organize it properly?
    I am using the premium version of Google Drive Embedder.
    Thank you,

    Anyway, I understand what you’re saying, and it is true that things can get a bit confusing depending on the way you’ve used files/folders in Drive recently.

    The plugin shows all your content as a ‘recently used’ list. That means it can show everything including files that have been shared with you, or you’ve viewed, that maybe you don’t even own.

    To navigate the list, the best way is to use the search box, or of course just step through with Next/Prev if you have used the file recently.

    Some other customers have also suggested that an alternative interface would be to be able to see Drive as a hierarchy too, much like in Drive itself of course… so that is definitely something on the list to develop in the future.

    Also, it is possible that deleted folders are showing up because Drive’s API is still listing them (incorrectly, really).

    I hope this helps – please email me if you have any more suggestions and I will find out more about how you are using the plugin, to influence development.

    Thanks,

    Dan
