I currently have a dokuwiki set up
http://stephenmerrony.co.uk/dg/doku.php which contains a mixture of ordinary wiki pages and other pages which contain lists of documents (mainly image PDFs) held on the server outside of the wiki and indexed in various ways via a mysql database. Eg.
http://stephenmerrony.co.uk/dg/doku.php?id=documentation:dg These pages use the Database2 plugin to access the data. Adding docs to the site is a bit of a nightmare at the moment involving file transfer, directly accessing the database, and sometimes modifying the wiki pages.
I'm looking at further expanding the site, making it bilingual, and improving the handling of the stored documents.
Is there a plugin, or better way of doing things, such that I can add PDF files to the wiki along with some metadata (part no., title, date, etc.) and have it all searchable by users? Also, I would want to be able to reference individual documents from any other wiki page.
I have a feeling the new struct plugin might do what I want, but I couldn't find any documentation the last time I looked.
