Cannot move text (.txt) media files

[fthommen]

We often upload text files (logfiles, very long installation instructions) etc. where it doesn't make sense to put the information directly in the Wiki page. They all have the .txt extension. When trying to move these media files with the tree based move manger, the filenames are shown w/o the extension (but they can still be moved around) and when it comes to the execution of the move, the move manager complains, that the file xyz (w/o extension!) doesn't exist.

Can this be fixed or is there maybe a workaround, so that media files with a .txt can be moved around, too?

This still does not work in version 2024-05-07 with DokuWiki 2024-02-06b "Kaos".

To work around this, I use the Move/Rename button in the Media Manager to move a few individual .txt files. Just write or paste the target namespace and it's done.

Nice workaround, but in our case, these are often namespaces with dozens of .txt files. Nothing that you would want to do manually :-). I assume the problem comes from the fact, that .txt is the normal extension of DW pages. However when they are in the media directories, IMHO they should still be recognised as movable media files.
