MoveCopyDelGroup

Questions answered by this recipe

How to move, copy or delete an entire PmWiki group.

Description

MoveCopyDelGroup provides a simple form and simple actions to copy, move, or delete an entire PmWiki group.

Copy duplicates the group, Move renames the group, and Delete deletes the entire group.

Because these are big operations in the wiki we require admin permissions to execute them.

To use, once installed, add ?action=groupcopy or ?action=groupmove or ?action=groupdelete to a page's location (or use a PageActions link, if you've defined one) to get a simple form, fill in the target name and press a button ("Copy" or "Move" or '"Delete"). MoveCopyDelGroup will verify that the source group exists and that the target group doesn't already exist, and that you have the required admin permissions, then moves or copies, or deletes the group. All uploads and the pages with their history are preserved. The move/copy will not be recorded in the history of the pages.

Assumes uploads are grouped per PmWiki group into one directory.
