<p>If you didnt create the folder in the assets pop-up i.e you just created a new folder manually, then you will need to update your asset indexes in the settings page for it to appear.</p>

<p>You can create subfolders within the pop-up, just right click a directory name and a  <code>new subfolder</code> button will appear. The new folder will then display automatically without having to manually re-index</p>

If you didnt create the folder in the assets pop-up i.e you just created a new folder manually, then you will need to update your asset indexes in the settings page for it to appear.

You can create subfolders within the pop-up, just right click a directory name and a `new subfolder` button will appear. The new folder will then display automatically without having to manually re-index
