[dokuwiki] Re: How to move media and preserve the links?

Hi Andreas,
afaik there is currently no dokuwiki way to do that ... (I wish I was wrong ;)) You will have to move everything step by step via Exploder or Shell and then fix the media links. You can try to automate the link fixing via scripts, but that will result in external edits.

Hi all
We have a small dokuwiki running with arround 1k pages. After 3 years the 
structure got a bit screwed up. Partly because people had typos in new
namespaces during creation of these namespaces.

I would like to restructure the wiki a bit:
* rename namespaces and pages
* move entire namespaces
* move media
What I tested so far was the pagemove plugin which takes some time to rename and move pages and namespaces but with a smal wiki it should work, even if 
you can not move entire namespaces as far as i could seen
The problem I face now is how to remove the media which is linked to the pages. I would like to rename and move tis namespaces as well. As far as I could see the pagemove plugin does not care for this. Is there any other way for doing this. Or do I have to move everthing on a file system level. But then I have to fix all the links by hand or scripts. When I want to delete a media that is still in use, dokuwiki prevents that. Does dokuwiki maintain a list of pages where each media is refered to, so that I at least could look 
up where I have to look for broken links?

Many thanks in advance

Andreas
