Unhide folders

Apologies, I just found this via Google. This is quite difficult considering I need to SSH into my AWS EC2 instances. I’d like to suggest a feature in the plugin that lets you view a list of hidden folders with the option to ‘unhide’ them.

How to Unhide a Hidden Folder Go to the hidden folder via your cPanel or FTP and remove the file ‘mlpp-hidden’. In the Media Library Folders Menu, click the Check for New folders link. This will add the folder back into Media Library Folders Visit the unhidden folder in Media Library Folders and click the Sync button to add contents of the folder. Before doing this, check to see that there are no thumbnail images in the current folder since these will be regenerated automatically; these usually have file names such as image-name-150×150.jpg, etc. Repeat step 3 for each sub folder.
