Wikidot Extension - Mass Delete Tool and more
Helmut_pdorf 12 May 2013 11:27
There is a new App Extension from Kenneth (tsangk) which allows every user to use an "Autocomplete" function and every admin a "Mass Delete Tool" for pages (or whole categories) and a new "File manager". Please have a look on his Extension Documentation!

Another description you can find on the Handbook:Mass Delete Tool.
It is working at the moment on Chrome and Firefox.
And a backup before any mass deletes is recommended!

I´ve installed the extension, and the editor capabilities are working, but the site manager capabilities (file manager, mass deleter and so on) doesn´t seem to work. Unfortunately, those were the main reason to install the extension.
I think the new site manager design has made the extension to stop working…
Am I right?
Yes, the new "admin:manage" page layout makes this for the moment unpossible.
We have to wait - either for Kenneth Tsang or the Wikidot team - for the implementation of this 2 features..

with the new admin:manage (redirect to _admin), I can't even see the file manager.. don't mention using this extension. :(
There is no file manager in the new site manager. If/when Kenneth re-writes the extension to work with the new site manager then hopefully it will be added.

So erm, I have a site that i need to remove something like 700 pages from.
Ah… hang i know, lets use Kennith's mass delete tool. So I come here to get it.
Only to discover that it doesn't work because because the Wikidot team have changed a few things to stop it working.
Have i got that right?
Sounds about right :P
Might try and work something out to fix it up - dependent on time I have.

You have my sympathies Kennith.
All that work to improve wikidot, just to get kicked in the nuts.
ouch :(
G'day all,
Found some time to fix the extension after the migration to the new Administration panel. You can find the Mass Delete Tool and the Improved File Manager under the "Others" navigation pill.
Let me know if you find any bugs below. Thanks!

Ace! Many thanks for finding a way to restore this.

Many Thanks Kenneth.
In terms of mass delete page all seems good and that has just saved me a few hours.
I think the file manager, although working, layout is a bit messed up (minor point)
Now wheres that donate button?
No worries :)
I've pushed some improved layouts for both the File Manager and the Mass Delete Tool — using Bootstrap styling now that that's available. If the layout is still screwing up, please post a screenshot and let me know which browser :)
