As a functionality moving assets is not available in the Hippo CMS 6 GUI.

Is it possible? Yes it is, however it is not just a matter of doing a WebDAV MOVE request. Assets are typically referred to from (many) documents, so all the references need to be updated as well.

There are bits and pieces available to implement this. There is a references view, I think it is enabled by default in the Documents tab only, but it should also work for Assets. Implementing the actual move action should not be much different from that for documents.

A workaround which avoids broken links would of course be a copy action, which is very straightforward to implement (just do a WebDAV copy and update some properties if necessary at all).

All this is from the top of my head as I am no longer involved in Hippo CMS 6, so please correct me if I am wrong.

Hope this helps

Can anybody help out Arjan familiar with the move/copy? I simply don't
know it. Is it possible to move/copy documents/folders in the normal

to add this?

Pls somebody familiar on the subject, speak out loud :-)

Could anyone perhaps answer this question wether it's possible to move/copy uploaded images to different folders etc or not. (if not, whats the reason/idea behind it that we can tell the client)

Thanks in advance

Kind regards
Arjan

Hi,

Just got a questions from our client if it is possible to move assets in the cms to another folder.
This option is available for document items but not for assets.

Wilson
