Allow direct renaming of folders

[freezingDaniel]

I hope I have not just overlooked a way to do this correctly, but I could not find a simple way to rename a folder

say one creates 2 wiki entries:

a/b
a/c
but not a itself

Filestructure:

└── a
    ├── b.md
    └── c.md

to rename the folder a, the wikis b and c need to be moved. This can be tedious for many pages.

It would be desirable that the "rename" option exists on a / empty dirs / the "Page Index" too and not only for wiki entries (md).

Hey @freezingDaniel, thanks for bringing this to my attention .. a page that only exists as pageindex lacks Rename and Delete .. currently I'm not sure if an Edit button should be available too.

By Edit you mean a shortcut to create the respective md-file?
Then maybe, but I'd say as a separate Issue with lower priority, as I found the "workaround" of just using the regular "Create Page" quite easily.

• Edit/Create page: Possible to find (first guess)
• Delete: bit harder to think of creating a page first
• Rename: would be really nice as pages can't be deleted separately and the workaround is tedious.

But as food for thought, a possible implementation might include:

• Create an md-file for each folder (and keep the names synced)
• Interpret an empty md-file as pageindex :)

Hehe, just creating empty .md files and treating them as pageindex is a idea. Will think about it!

Another feature in this context I was thinking about, was to add a pageindex to a page/a page to a pageindex. The first. idea was to make this via yaml front matter, like

---
pageindex: top / bottom / hidden (default)
---
# The Page

and its content.
