Subject: bulk group edit plugin

I'm looking for a simple plugin that would enable bulk editing of local DokuWiki groups. I would like to be able to see a list of internal groups (as seen in the "Groups" column of the built-in user-manager plugin). When I click on one of the groups, I get a text box containing one user per line. I am then able to edit the list, and save, and the groups get added/deleted to all the users at the same time. It's probably a relatively simple plugin to write. It's important to be able to edit in a list so that changes can be made in bulk - cut and pasted from elsewhere. It would be most ideal if this were actually submitted as a patch to the existing user manager since this functionality seems to belong there.

Thanks for any help you can provide...

I wrote a plugin to help me with group management... it doesn't do exactly what you are asking for below, but it may still be useful to you.

Essentially, I modified the standard user management plugin to allow me to add and remove users from a group. Underneath the "Add user" box, I've added a "Modify group membership" section: this allows you to specify a group name, and then a comma-separated list of users. You can then choose to add/remove all of these members to/from the group.

If you are interested, I can post the code to you.

Andy.
