-There's nothing in [[fileupload]] that suggests putting the file upload limit in the body of a page. That would indeed be a strange choice. Ikiwiki already uses [[PageSpecs|PageSpec]] in the Preferences page (for specifying locked pages, banned users, and subscriptions), and I had envisioned putting the file upload controls there, and possibly subsuming some of those other controls into them.

-It's not clear to me that the concept of attaching files to a page fits ikiwiki very well; unlike most wikis, ikiwiki supports subdirectories and [[SubPages|SubPage]], which allows for hierarchical placement of uploaded files, which is a much more flexible concept than simple attachment. Futhermore, the idea of listing all attached files at the bottom of a page seems somewhat inflexible. What if I want to make a podcast, using inline's existing support for that -- I won't want a list of every "attached" file at the bottom of my podcast's page then.

> If a file was attached to _some-dir/some-page_, it would be stored in _some-dir/_ and linked from _some-page_. That would seem reasonably hierarchical to me. What do you suggest as an alternative?
height, compression, etc. which could be initially created by 'ikiwiki --generate-meta-stuff'.
Then PageSpec should be
teached to use these. Galleries could then be generated by means of
-\[[inline pages="type(image/*) and year(2007)" template="gallery"]]. It
+\[[!inline pages="type(image/*) and year(2007)" template="gallery"]]. It
should of course be possible to edit this information via ikiwiki.cgi and with any
text editor (Name: value). This should also allow for creations of default .html pages with
the image/video/file/... and a discussion page. Probably named image.mdwn and image/discussion.
> I did an proof of concept implementation of this idea [here](http://ng.l4x.org/brainstorm/gallery/) yesterday night, including the link to the source code. I'd really love to hear comments about this approach.
