Hi,
My vtiger version is 5.4. I just want to add a function in the document module so that I can add sub-folder in this module. I try some methods by myself but finally failed. Could you give me some idea about this issue? Thank you
regards,
Roger

This is a very complicated request which requires a lot of programming. You have to change the current folder picklist for a module related with itself in parent-child mode, then modify all the code to achieve a decent output and GUI.
Let's step back a little. What problem do you have? I mean try to explain why you need subfolders, what is the business problem you are trying to solve?

OK. For instance, I create a parent folder in the name of company. I also create several sub-folders in order to manage the document separately. It will not influence files in other sub-folders if I just want to delete all the files in one sub-folder. Recently, I cannot realize this requirement this version. Thank you.

Would this approach serve your purpose?
- create a new picklist or text custom field called subfolder
- filter on both folder and subfolder field
