Moving files between folders #417

Closed z-station closed 11 months ago

z-station commented 11 months ago

I read the docs and code and didn't find UI actions/widgets for moving files between folders. Why is this functionality not supported? Should we expect it in the near future?

sehmaschine commented 11 months ago

it is not planned to implement something like this. the way we use files is that we usually store a reference to the file within the database – so moving the file also requires to update that path (so the db update is our trigger to actually move the file on the server). basically, we've never needed this.

Thanks for answer! Yes, I agree with your arguments! However, if I need to regroup hundreds of files, I need to delete them and upload them again
