This plugin creates corresponding media namespace directory immediatly after page creation
This extension has not been updated in over 2 years. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues.
Usually the mediaspace, where all the mediafiles reside after uploading, is located at <DokuWiki-Root>/data/media/ in the filesystem of the Webserver.
Now, some Admins (like me) export this directory by FTP, Samba, WebDAV or whatever to gain faster access to them. This can be used to copy mediafiles into and out their namespaces. Also, deleting or reorganizing is possible this way.
My plugin changes DokuWiki's behaveour so namespace-dirs in mediaspace are always created, when they are created in pagespace. This guarantees that they exist for putting files inside.
IO_NAMESPACE_CREATED to IO_WIKIPAGE_WRITE to create mediadirs for page-namespaces already exist and won't fire the former event in case of an page edit.Please use Bugtracker-Link given in head-section of this plugin
Beware: Changeing content of mediaspace directories will corrupt your index and also your imagelinks inside the pages. Also you must respect DokuWiki's internal naming conventions. Therefore only lowerspace filesnames, with alphanumeric chars and no spaces will be shown as mediafiles inside DokuWiki. Additionally they may not be shown until reindexing. So think of what you're doing!
