P: Respect Hierarchical Folders of Presets

Also, although this screenshot doesn't show it the Kloskowski 'preset/folder' is empty, yet in quick development it is not shown. Since the handling of things in folder hierarchies is a standard object in any programming language the different displays are inexplicable and ridiculously easy to implement.

I would appreciate it if I could create subfolders into my preset folders. With a growing number of presets I have to decide between a confusing high number of folders with neatly arranged presets or vice versa. Even one additional level of folders to minimize could tidy up this mess.
Thanks 

The Any Preset plugin provides completely hierarchical organization of your develop presets, as well as a number of other frequently requested features for presets.

Currently presets can be stored in folders, but Lightroom doesn't respect the hierarchy beyond the first level. For example, the following hierarchy would appear with all of the folders on the same level with the top level folders appearing to be empty.

Develop Presets
-Folder 1
--Sub Folder 1.1
---Preset 1.1.1
--Sub Folder 1.2
---Preset 1.2.1
-Folder 2
--Sub Folder 2.1
---Preset 2.1.1
--Sub Folder 2.2
---Preset 2.2.1

The above hiearchy appears as follows:

Develop Presets
-Folder 1
-Sub Folder 1.1
--Preset 1.1.1
-Sub Folder 1.2
--Preset 1.2.1
-Folder 2
-Sub Folder 2.1
--Preset 2.1.1
-Sub Folder 2.2
--Preset 2.2.1

There are many reasons to want to use deeper hierarchies. I keep all the Presets from Matt Klowskowski in one folder, but further subdivided by folders that contain all the presets in the same category (eg. Wedding, B&W, etc). Lightroom ignores the top level folder and shows the subfolders as top level folders.

See the attached image to see the difference between Lightroom and the folders on disc.

Annoying.

One alternative that I may adopt is to edit the individual presets (they're just text files) and prepend a name to the the title area, for example title = "[subfolder name] - [preset name]" obviously without the brackets, atleast they will be in order to easily find what your looking for, not as ideal as a nested hierarchy but better than nothing... just a thought...better yet! I might write a little app that does it automatically.

I have only been using LR for a few weeks and when I finally got to understanding develop presets the first thing i wanted to do was organise them into subfolders, I couldn't believe that an application such as LR which is all about image management and organisation is missing such a simple implementation, being a computer programmer I find this unbelievable after so many years without listening to their customers requests.

Agreed - lets get this.

I do save with with my catalog, however I only use one catalog for all of my images so that's no solution. And it still wouldn't solve the lack of organization...
