This page tells me that
"When all pages inside a namespace are removed the namespace logically
doesn_t exist anymore. DokuWiki usually deletes the now empty
directory  as well."

What config files(s) do i edit to set this up? 

There is no need to setup anything. Deleting empty directories is
handled by the io_sweepNS() function which is called everytime a file is
deleted.

However this may not work always. Eg. someone opened a nonexisting page
for editing but then browsed away there may be a stale lockfile left. In
this case deleteing the non-empty directory will fail silently.



Hmm, on my WAMP it is definitely not working:

1. Creating new page in empty namespace -> one TXT-file after save in NS
2. reedit the new page, deleting all text -> no file, but NS still there


Did you ever notice that wiki.splitbrain.org has way too many empty folders?! That cannot derive from the scenario mentioned above, can it?
