Is it possible to move objects to a folder using the ZMI? I'm sure it must be doable, but it isn't immediately obvious how you can do it. -- John

move them from where? If not from another folder, I don't know what you mean. If you want to move objects from another folder, it works a lot like many webmail programs... note the checkboxes next to each object in the ZMI. Check one or more, click on the "cut" button near the bottom of the page, browse to another folder, click on "paste" button near bottom of page. -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com Look!

From the site's root.

I see. Never associated 'CUT' with 'MOVE'. What I did find was that EVENT objects could be moved, but LINK objects couldn't. This error came up:- Site error This site encountered an error trying to fulfill your request. The errors were: Error Type Copy Error Error Message ! The object 020.link does not support this operation. I wonder if this has something to do with the way this object type is set up within Plone...

Yeah, that's a particularly unhelpful error message since it masks the real exception type and value that are causing the problem.

Yup, again, the plone lists is gonna be able to help more... Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
