This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.

Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:

wp plugin install https://github.com/jivedig/organize-uploads-by-year/archive/refs/heads/master.zip
No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.
Readme github.com/jivedig/organize-uploads-by-year ↗

Organize WP media uploads by wp-content/{year}/{filename.ext}. This plugin has no settings, it just works. It's best to use this plugin at the start of building a new website since changing the upload directory after you've already uploaded any images via the WP Media Uploader will break things.

Notice!!!

Be sure you want this as your upload directory structure, once you start using this plugin it's not easy to go back! That's not to say the plugin doesn't work, just make sure you really want to use it before you actually do. :)
