Introduction

This WordPress MU-Plugin loads MU-Plugins from subdirectories. WordPress only looks for PHP files right inside the MU-Plugins directory, and not for files in subdirectories (unlike for normal plugins).

After installing the package, copy the mu-plugin-autoloader.php file inside of the MU-Plugins directory (/mu-plugins), to load WordPress MU-Plugins automatically.

This MU-Plugin is a modified version based on the richardtape/subdir-loader.php Github Gist.
