Move multiple attachments at once

When refactoring a piece of text to another topic, and that text has more than one attachments included (for example illustrations), it is a hassle to do a attachment action => Move attachment => Move sequence for each attachment.

Instead of having the option "Move attachment" for each file, we could think of the option "Move attachments to topic" and then select from the attachment table which attachments to move.

First throw at template page (that would be the replacement of renamebase.tmpl):


Move attachments to topic

Change from: Development.MoveMultipleAttachmentsAtOnce
To web:
Topic name:

Select attachments to move

... attachment table with checkboxes.

[Move button]


  • User should select an existing topic
  • User should select at least one file

Has this been replaced by a new feature request?

perhaps this is a nice feature introduction for a new TWiki developer?

Would love to see this. As the site wikikeeper I do this a lot when refactoring pages, and the current move-one-at-a-time method is worse then cumbersome. Sounds like a challenging, but maybe rewarding, project for me to cut my Foswiki development teeth on?

Already implemented in TopicInteractionPlugin, as well as hide, unhide, delete, download, create a link, create an imagegallery, lightbox-like slideshow for a selection of attachments.
