Media Infinite Scroll

Media Library Infinite Scroll re-enables the continuous scrolling behavior in the media library grid view. WordPress changed to load more buttons, but many users prefer scrolling that automatically loads more images as you browse. This module restores that behavior, making it easier to browse large media libraries without clicking to load each page. Simply scroll down and more images appear automatically.
