Due to the new [horrible!] dropdown namespace selector [boooo], it's no longer possible to move (sub)pages across namespace. Steps to reproduce (I guess): 1) Create N:A e N:A/B 2) Click move and select "M" in namespace dropdown 3) Choose to move subpages 4) Confirm Expected result: N:A is moved to M:A and N:A/B to M:A/B. Actual result: N:A/B is left behind and you're told that moving is impossible. Example: see URL (last five moves were done by hand). (Can we just drop this buggy dropdown selector that was introduced for no reason?)
(In reply to comment #0) > Steps to reproduce (I guess): I tried that with N=Help and M=Project, but it worked fine.
Back to NEW. The steps to reproduce might be wrong but I've provided logs which prove it.
I tried this: 1) Create in the main namespace the page Test/Test 2) Create the pages Test/Test/1, Test/Test/2, Test/Test/3 3) Go to Test/Test and try to move to the Discussions namespace INCLUDING subpages. Expected results: • Test/Test moved to Discussions:Test/Test • Test/Test/1 moved to Discussions:Test/Test/1 • Test/Test/2 moved to Discussions:Test/Test/2 • Test/Test/3 moved to Discussions:Test/Test/3 Results: • Test/Test moved to Discussions:Test/Test • Subpages not moved because the software tries to move Test/Test/1 to the same Test/Test/1 and not to the discussions namespace. N.B.: Tried only with the main namespace and "Discussions" namespace, it MAY happen also between other namespaces.
Thanks for confirming the bug. (Note that Riccardo had to enable subpages on main namespace for the test wiki of course.)
