Subject: Hide Namespaces in Media Manager

Hi,

I have set up namespaces in such a way that each of my clients has it's own namespace. Ideally they should not be able to see eachother's namespace or what other namespaces exist on the wiki.

However, when they upload a file to their namespace, the list of all namespaces shows up on the right of the Media Manager.

Does anyone know if there is a way, maybe a mod, to only list the namespaces for which the user has Upload perms for that namespace? Actually, when inserting an image they would have to see the spaces for which they have read perms, and for uploading they would have to see the ones for which they have Upload perms.

Or, maybe a good compromise would be to show all namespaces they have Read perms for, then if they don't have upload perms for that NS then I assume the Media Manager will block the upload anyway?

Thanks!!

Well, if I can't get help, I tend to solve things myself.

For anyone interested, here's how to hide namespaces in the Media Manager for which the user does not have at least Read permissions:

In the file inc/media.php: in function media_nstree($ns){, add this before the echo statements:

// Remove namespaces for which user does not have at least read perms.
    foreach($data as $key => $namespace){
      if(auth_quickaclcheck($namespace['id'].":*") < 1){
      unset($data[$key]);
      }
    }

You can activate the *sneaky_index* config option (http://www.dokuwiki.org/config:sneaky_index). That does not only restrict the index, but also the file tree in the media manager if the user has not at least read permissions.
