Wordpress Organizer

1. hi there, thanks for your spam notification. really like the plugin.
   two questions:
   1) can i move files under /wp-admin/ and integrate it into wp completely? would this be big effort?
   2) do you think its possible to include an options-setting that allows to set a specific subfolder for contributors? I’m thinking of a structure like /uploads/user_nice-name/
   as this would allow a better management of each users own files.
   I’m trying to get this feature to work for some hours now and would be happy to hear your opinion on this as i’m lacking of coding-skills here :-O

   kudos to you for a great plugin.

2. with 1) i’m talking about the plugin-files of course.

   Comment by erik — April 10, 2006 @ 12:50 am

3. In the new version of the Organizer the plugin all files stays in wp-content/plugins folder. No need to move any files. In Old version I was really stupid and I didnt know how to write a proper plugin for wordpress. Even now to some extent I dont know

5. well you did a great job! i feel comfotable with this plugin, but something i’m missing with all plugins that handle image or file-uploads (and i’ve tested a few … i like the structured blogging thing too):
   none of the plugins has the option to set rules for specific users. well your plugin comes closest but what i am missing is not to turn uploading on/off for specific users, i just dont wouldn’t want them to access one and the same folder. get me?

   if user “Adam XY” would login i guess it was better structure (and thus better Organized) to only let him access his user specific subfolder. (for example named like his nicename) /wp-content/uploads/adam-xy/

   That would lead to a better file-structure, a faster orientation by the user in the folder and prevent accidentially deleted files by another user.

   im not a coder and you probably know your own plugin the best, so maybe you can tell how to implement this feature.

   after checking if the logged in user has capabilities to upload
   1) check if /path/to/upload-folder/ contains a subfolder named after the “user_nicename” value stored in “users”
   2) if not create this folder
   3) change the dir to this subfolder and make sure the logged in user cant get a level above his subfolder.

   no big deal, right? hehe
   kindly regards. and much thank yous in advance

7. I grabbed the organizer this evening and used it to rename 70+ images that I had previously imported from blogger. Thank you for this amazing plug-in! Well done Imthiaz. Serious amounts of thanks.

8. the same goes for me. i didn’t really expect that you would add my wanted features so quick. so i’m twice as happy to have a very user-(and also admin- ) friendly upload-tool !!! its a pleasure to see how well written this piece of code is. it helps a lot to understand wp’s plugin-api …

   Thank you very much for supporting me with Organizer. Your contribution so far is great. You are pushing me dude. Thanks for the German translation. I have update the files. Have fun

10. Hey there, interesing plugin,

    though its having a problem figuring out what URL to use.

    all the javascripts, and images refer to the real server locations instead of the locations relative to the web domain root.

    e.g.

    /home/httpd/www/wp-content

    instead of

    http://www.mywebsite.com/wp-content

    so im getting urls like this:

    http://www.mywebsite.com/home/httpd/www/wp-content

    and none of the javascript or images work..

    any ideas?

    Comment by 1mil — May 3, 2006 @ 7:35 am

11. I fixed it.

    a variable called $organizer_path needs to be corrected in your code.

    I was wondering how do you add files to posts?

    Comment by 1mil — May 3, 2006 @ 7:55 am

12. Nice plug-in!!!

    a suggestion: I found it beacuse I was looking for a tool to change the DESCRIPTION of an image already uploaded. This function is not provided in your plug-in. I think it would turn it in a must!

    One question, is it possible to make is available to users with “author” priviledges. Is there something that I can change to make that happen?

    Comment by lou — May 20, 2006 @ 7:03 pm

15. Hi Lou

    Organizer supports Role manager plugin.

    If you install role manager plugin you can assign roles for each user what options they can use in organizer plugin.

    Comment by Imthiaz — May 20, 2006 @ 7:20 pm

16. hi Imthiaz

    thank you very much for developing organizer. after trying a variety of file-manager plugins for wordpress, yours is by far my first choice. I have installed it and will use it in future. still I have some propositions / wishes:

    1) first I would like you to implement a bugfix already mentioned by 1mil. your script does not seem to work with any host. ie. my host returns somewhat like /home//public_html/wordpress/… for dirname(__FILE__) while $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] returns /var/webs//public_html. this circumstance makes your path-replacement useless. instead I wrote some lines to fix this and hope it works on every single host. the hack is dirty, so I would wellcome any better solution.

    however, heres my code:

    $root_tree = explode(’/', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']);
    $root_count = count($root_tree)-1;
    $root_last = $root_tree[$root_count];
    list($root_path, $organizer_path) = split($root_last, dirname(__FILE__));

    replaces:

    $organizer_path = str_replace($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'],”",$organizer_path);

    2) my other issue also concerns a prior post by 1mil. I am definitely missing a convenient way to add uploaded files to a post. currently, the only way seems to be copy-pasting of the address. I already tried to copy an uploaded file to .thumbnail. (same pattern as wp files) and resize this image to thumbnail-size, without success. any suggestions?

    3) it is not yet possible to move files within the path hierarchy, is it?

    Comment by ade — May 28, 2006 @ 12:22 am

17. well, it’s me again. a short inspection of the official upload script brought light into the image-publication-issue. I don’t know whether you have already seen this, but wp creates a variety of db-tables for attached pictures, such as:

    a) wp_post
    here comes all the basic information about the attachment:
    ID = internal id, same as post_id
    post_author = id of the registered user
    post_content = description (as requested by battino)
    post_title = display-title
    post_category = you could even create categories for images!
    post_status = set to “attachment” for identification
    post_name = same as title, without spaces
    post_parent = where it was uploaded
    guid = absolute path in browser
    post_mime_type = ie. image/jpeg

    b) wp_postmeta (1)
    meta_key = _wp_attached_file
    meta_value = absolute path in file-system

    c) wp_postmeta (2)
    meta_key = _wp_attachment_metadata
    meta_value = a variety of properties such as height, width, as well as thumbnail information

    to display uploaded files on the “write post”-page, only row a) is needed. in my humble opinion, adding the management of these db-entries to your plugin would really make organizer THE file-/attachment-plugin. of course I am aware of the work this would take, so it is only a friendly proposition

    Comment by yen — June 5, 2006 @ 8:22 am

19. Hmm, I’m obviously doing something amazingly wrong and dumb, because after uploading the files, activating the plugin and accessing the menu, I can select the directories in the drop down list, but then nothing happens. (In IE6 and Firefox 1.5), i.e. the browser just “sits” there. Uploading file invariably produces “Filetype not allowed to upload” (I have Role Manager installed and permissions are set correctly.)

    Any clues?

20. It was an small issue with the file extension case. I have fixed it and updated the file.

    Comment by Imthiaz — June 13, 2006 @ 10:24 pm

21. Ok, what am I doing wrong?

    I have put the directory “organizer” and all it’s files under the /plugins. When I activate the it at the plugin page, there is an error message at the top of my screen:

    Warning: opendir(/home/content/m/o/m/momgeek/html/wp-content/uploads): failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /home/content/m/o/m/momgeek/html/wp-content/plugins/organizer/plugin_functions.php on line 173

    Would greatly appreciate any help.

    thank you!

    Comment by jeffmore — June 21, 2006 @ 9:04 pm

25. Jeffmore,

    The problem may lie on your server. Check that your server allows uploads larger than 2MB. You can usually override the default setting with a htaccess directive. Ask your ISP for help.

26. Hi,

    I also had the problem 1mil and ade encountered: where paths to the scripts, CSS, and images were broken. The fix ade offered above didn’t work for me and produced additional errors I didn’t understand.

    All I did was replace:

    $organizer_path = organizer_fix_windows_path(dirname(__FILE__));
$organizer_path = str_replace($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'],”",$organizer_path);
$organizer_path = organizer_fix_organizer_path(organizer_fix_windows_path($organizer_path));
    with:

    $organizer_path = 'wp-content/plugins/organizer';

    and it seems to work just fine now…

    Is there another, better way to handle this?

    Comment by Mike — July 5, 2006 @ 11:35 pm

27. I agree with ade who said:

    This is almost exactly what I have needed and a fantastic addition to WP. You thought of everything I would need — it even reads files that I have uploaded via FTP, which is a small miracle that WP can’t perform — but that is due to exactly what ade requested….the DB meta fields have to be there for WP to “see” the uploaded files.

    In my ideal world, I’d like to see that files in ALL folders (not just the ones created by WP - the year and month) be visible in the “browse all” area of the on-board WP upload area (post edit/write) regardless of whether they were uploaded via FTP or WP.

    This might be impossible, since FTP can’t write all the DB entries needed for each file, to make them show up in “browse all”. But if there was some way, perhaps an additional screen in admin…where all files in the directories could be listed (in one big long list, or pageinated), with the option to write the necessary metadata to the database for each file.

    Example: a row that shows the filename, along with user input fields for title, description, etc., a drop down to select an associated post…that will write the information to the database for each file selected. I’d like to see this in a long list, where multiple files could be operated on at once — maybe the option to show all files, or to pageinate.

    Also, at present, WP only allows file uploads to the year/month directories created by WP. If your plugin could include additional files uploaded to different areas of the in the “browse all” section, that would be amazing.

    Let me say again what a super plugin this is. I hope you’ll have time soon to comment on the requested additions

30. Hi there

    Firstly, this is a great plugin!

    However I’m having a few problems with it. Under “Image functions”, I get the following error:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_image_type() in /home/username/public_html/wp-content/plugins/organizer/page/view.php on line 314

    So I can’t “Copy / Rename / Delete files in the uploads directory” or anything similar. Do you have any ideas on how I can fix this?

    Thanks

37. Hmm… My Wordpress installation is in the /wp directory. The 5/28 suggestion by ade wasn’t sufficient to fix the $organizer_path. [The app was still throwing Javascript errors complaining about not being able to find the function organizer_jump_directory.

    When I hard coded the path to the organizer directory in the function
    organizer_add_files_to_admin_head
    all seems to be well. Not a long term solution (since I’m supporting multiple sites), but enough to convince myself that this is way cool.

    Plan to use it along with .htaccess authentication for a simple document store that should be moderately private.

38. Hi, your plugin is precisely what I’ve been looking for in order to organize & make available a large number of documents for our school organization. I have a problem launching the plugin, perhaps I’m missing something - if this has an obvious answer please point me to where I can self educate:

    I received the following error after installing, activating Organizer, then attempting to go to the Organizer page:

    Request denied by WatchGuard HTTP proxy.
    Reason: IPS matched signature id=’2307′
    Method: GET
    Host: http://www.nkoptions.wednet.edu
    Path: /wp-admin/admin.php?page=organizer/page/index.php

    Is there any immediately obvious reasons this might be happening? I am sending a request to the hosting site as well to know if their WatchGuard configuration is particularly restrictive - however every other WP function & plugin has been working very smoothly.

    Thanks in advance - Paul

39. Hi,

    maybe I’ve overseen it, but: is it possible to change the upload path not relative, but absolute? Means: I would like to use a different server for managing the files, not the server, where wp resides. Is this possible?

41. Just to let you know, your plugin does not play well with the WordPress WWW Redirect Plugin (http://www.justinshattuck.com/wordpress-www-redirect-plugin/).

    It has a feature to redirect any requests to index.php to /, which breaks your plugin, resulting in errors such as:
    
Warning: main(/home/website/public_html/wp-content/plugins/organizer/page/) [function.main]: failed to open stream: Success in /home/website/public_html/wp-admin/admin.php on line 72

    Disabling that feature in that plugin allowed your plugin to work correctly.

    Comment by Roman Edirisinghe — October 24, 2006 @ 7:18 pm

46. [...] Ein Paradebeispiel ist zum Beispiel der Organizer von Imthi Rafiq. Der in meinen Augen beste Upload-Manager für WordPress gibt einem eine ganze Reihe von Möglichkeiten Dateien zu verwalten, hochzuladen, zu kopieren, umzubenennen, Verzeichnisse zu durchstöbern, etc. Als Besonderheit, lassen sich die einzelnen Funktionen eben auch im Role-Manager den verschiedenen Profilen zuweisen bzw. verbieten. Vielseitig lassen sich auch die Einstellungen einzelner Benutzer vorgeben: so kann der Admin zum Beispiel die maximale Dateigröße für Uplaods für jeden Nutzer individuell festlegen. Wer sein Wordpress-Upload-Verzeichnis zB. auf “/” statt auf “/wp-content/uploads” festlegt, gibt den Benutzern einen (wenn auch in Grenzen) brauchbaren Ersatz für einen echten FTP-Benutzer zur Hand. Die Einstellung “/” für Uploads bewirkt, dass ein Benutzer des Organizers auf alle Verzeichnisse zugreifen kann. Also Vorsicht mit dieser Einstellung, das ist wirklich nur sinnvoll, wenn die Benutzer wissen was sie tun (man könnte theoretisch Themes löschen, die Datenbank-Zugangsdaten auslesen). Genau da kommt aber wieder der Role-Manager ins Spiel, der gewisse Aufgaben verbieten kann. Alternativ lässt sich im Organizer auch für jeden Benutzer sein “eigenes Unterverzeichnis” vergeben. Das verhindert zum einen dass Benutzer in anderen Verzeichnissen Schaden anrichten können. Desweiteren ist das super praktisch um Ordnung zu wahren. Man stelle sich vor 20 Benutzer könnten auf die Daten anderer Nutzer zugreifen, bearbeiten, etc. Ãœberdies erstellt das Plugin die Benutzer-Unterordner selbst, automatisch also. Man braucht sich um nichts zu kümmern und kann sogar festlegen wie groß Verzeichnisse (individeuell für jeden Benutzer) maximal werden dürfen. [...]

    Can you help?

60. @Roman Edirisinghe [comment #45]:

    I was getting that same error too; all the “change directory” drop-down select menus throughout this plugins interface were returning a organizer_jump_directory is not defined javascript error.

    I did a search for the organizer_jump_directory function and found that it was in the general.js file. So, I browsed to the Organizer page in the Wordpress admin site, viewed the browser generated source and did a search for general.js to which I found out was being included improperly. For whatever reason, the author of this plugin has [both] the javascript file and css file being included via their local path on the server and not the relative path of the URL. For example, my javascript include line for general.js was targetting /E:/Inetpub/wwwroot/foobar_com/www/wp-content/plugins/organizer/general.js instead of http://www.foobar.com/wp-content/plugins/organizer/general.js

    To fix this problem, here’s what I did; a better fix could probably be implemented - but wrong or right, it works now and takes two seconds to do.

    Add // to the beginning of line 70 to comment out global $organizer_path; and add the following line beneath it so that this new line will fill the void of commenting out previous one:

    $organizer_path = get_settings(’home’).”/wp-content/plugins/organizer/”;

    Keep in mind, if you have the Organizer plugin installed to a directory other than the default /organizer directory, you will need to modify the new line accordingly.

61. [RE: comment #60] Forgot to add that I had to change src=\”/$organizer_path in line 71 and 72 to src=\”$organizer_path (removing the / before $organizer_path).

64. A problem that think relates to something mentioned earlier. First, great plug-in, something that is really needed.

    Now, the plugin is installed and activates fine. It sees all pre-existing pics in the dir (uploaded via WP post page). I upload a file with Organizer just fine. However, when I go to the Post or Page creation screens, the Organizer pics to not show on the Browse All menu. They do not seem registered with WP.

    Are they WP BD tables that need to be updated when the images are uploaded?

    It is not problem for me, but friends who are less knowledgeable get confused and can’t use the images if they don’t appear in the WP menus.

    thanks.

78. I would like to use this with wpmu instead of wp.

    this means changing a lot of variables, like: each blog has his own path were uploads are stored: ABSPATH.UPLOADS points to myblog.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/$blog_id/files/
    next thing is that each blog has his own id, thus his own tables like: wp_6_sk2 just an example, but the general settigns are stored sitewide, i.e. there is no wp_6_users table only one wp_users table…

    are you interested in helping adapt this plugin to wpmu? I woudl liek to try, I would just need to have a better understanding of what and where to modify…

    In the extra capabilities section I have given the following:
    Organizer Upload, Organizer, delete_private_pages, delete_private_posts, edit_private_pages, edit_private_posts, import, manage_categories, manage_links, moderate_comments, publish_pages, read_private_pages, read_private_posts, unfiltered_html, Organizer Directory, Organizer Option

81. I have installed organizer 1.2.1 on Wordpress 2.1.2. Everything works wonderfully except that the preview on the image resize is not working. I have searched for a solution and have yet to come up with one.

    I viewed the source of the page and noticed that the image was pointing to the file system “/C:/recruiting/olemiss/wp-content/plugins/organizer/image.php?m=r&l=100&p=C%3A%2Frecruiting%2Folemiss%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads&f=march-madness-lunch-003.jpg”
    Which seems to me to be the problem. Since it is pointing to the PHP page instead of the image itself. However, I am not in any way an experienced programmer so I am just taking a shot in the dark here.

    Any assistance you can give is appreciated.

    I modified the php files to point on the directory I want to upload, I installed the plug-in and it works well, I can create some directories, upload some files.

    But when I select a subdirectory in the drop down list, nothing appends. I can only see the content of the root-upload-directory.

    Do you have any idea,

    Comment by Adam Pawley — May 17, 2007 @ 9:15 pm

93. I have installed Organizer (compatible with WP 2.0.x). It works great with WP 2.1.2, but I’ve just updated to 2.1.3, and now there is a slight problem. It creates directories perfectly, and uploads files to these directories, but will not display files in any directory other than the ‘root’ directory. That is, on the Organizer>Organizer tab (file list), it lists all files in the user’s root directory, but if I click the dropdown box to select a sub-directory, the list does not refresh, and so does not show the files in that sub-directory.

    The same problem exists on the “view file” tab of Organizer, where only files in the user’s root directory are displayed… the drop-down box does not appear to submit my sub-directory selection.

    I am looking forward to an update, you plugin is fantastic and much-needed by the wordpress community!

    Thanks a million,

     Lines 50 - 52 from :
     include_once(”plugin_functions.php”);

121. I use this plugin (v1.2.1) with WP2.3.1
     The upload process and user management in junction with the Role Manager plugin works fine.

     I have problems with the file listings. I guess that the administrator role should get all files listed including the ones in user specific (sub)folders. The only files I can see as an admin are the ones uploaded to the root folder (wp-content/uploads) or to my (user specific) admin folder. There is also a problem with the drop-down selection of folders: this simply changes nothing.

     The idea behind this plugin is so far one of the most advanced when it comes to file management in WP but it needs some fixes I think.

     There is one issue though: Organizer 1.2.1 is not compatible with the Gengo 0.9 multi-language plugin.
     The problem is that the call to ‘load_plugin_textdomain(…)’ in plugin_hook.php must be moved to a function that runs on the ‘init’ hook. Cf. the compatibility FAQ of Gengo. I moved that call into the organizer_initialize() function (which I hope is part of the init hook - I am not sure though) and this works for me so far. You might wanna get this fix into the next version too. Thanks!
