This is an awesome app. It would be very helpful to be able to create Folders to organize docs into. Please consider.

To give Eyal a clear idea of what you want, you should be a bit more specific.

How exactly do you want this feature to look like? Like the Document Manager in Nisus Writer Pro?
(1) Should the folders be organized hierarchically? And be searchable?
(2) How exactly would you like to organize your Mellel documents? Based on topics? Date? Languages? …

In the meantime, working with smart folders in the Finder isn't a bad idea. The documents can be arranged by tags and sorted by creation date or modification date, for example. And if you enable the menu command "Show Preview" (Shift+Command+P) you can see the content in a preview-column to the right.

Using external organizers (like EagleFiler) is another option. But I don't know whether you are interested in hearing about that…

I’m using the Mellel version on the IPad Pro.

In the main window where docs are stored, it would be helpful to have the ability to create folders and even sub-folders for the purpose of organization. Lacking this ability at present limits organizational structure of filing docs in a systematic way. It appears like a “recent” folder without additional structure. Working on multiple documents gets confusing.

So a hierarchal structure would be helpful. Searchable would also help.

Oh sorry, I didn't know that. I don't have an iPad myself, so just ignore my comments.
Good luck.

Appreciate your input. It was my fault for not specifying the IPad Pro version instead of the desktop version. Thx.

Any update on the ability to add folders on the iPadOS version of Mellel. Sorting out several docs get complicated quickly. Just wondering…

It might be a good idea to write a support request about this if you haven’t already done so.
