We would like to be able to create and remove namespaces (after moving media files out).
I've tried several things, searches on the forum, the wiki, the plugins and got some ideas.
Then tried CKG Editor Media Manager with no success.
Then thought that maybe we could Create and Delete Media Folders from the URL just as we can pages in the text side.
I tried creating a new media namespace from the URL the same way we can create new pages,
From the top main page I went into media manager. this was the url
http://192.138.189.133/wiki/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=opencpn&do=media&ns=
So I just added
192.138.189.133/wiki/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=opencpn&do=media&ns=opencpn:files:
nmea
because I knew opencpn:files exists.
I hit enter! Now I can see that the
nmea directory is shown!!
It seems to me that this is so easy it could be made into a plugin or something that would be easier for folks.

I have another question about this.
I first tried the CKG Editor Media Tool and it seems to have better control and browsing and even has a Make new Folder button.
but it did not "see" all of the namespaces and seemed to be very restrictive in that way no matter what I did.
Additionally our Index does not work. When I hit Index -> "this topic does not exist"
Should I re-index the site making sure indexer is turned on?
Will that help CKG Media manager with seeing the full directory structure?

How to Delete EMPTY media Folders/Directories/Namespaces?
192.138.189.133/wiki/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=opencpn&do=media&ns=opencpn:files:
nmea
Make sure it is empty.
192.138.189.133/wiki/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=opencpn&do=media&ns=opencpn:files
Now hit enter.
and "
nmea" is removed from the directory.
Now I can use this technique to clean up after users who have misplaced media files.
I've also found that Move Plugin does this quite well by being able to move Image files to the correct directory.
Same way as deleting a page from the URL? Empty the namespace. Then remove the namespace from the end of the URL and then just hit enter? Yes, the empty namespace is removed. I believe all empty namespaces will be removed but I have to learn more about this trick.
I wish we have Search ______ and Replace ________ from within Dokuwiki so that we could easily search + replace just the current page for a start. This is just text to be used for fixing lots of links on a page. 3 Steps.
1. Define search and replace.
2. Hit enter to find the instances.
3. Open a page to see what it will change.
4. Hit enter or Escape.
