Cannot Access Image Wiki Pages (Logged Out)

I'm not sure if the issue is that they aren't allowed. It seems more like the server detects the static file extension, and transfers it as a cookie-less request.

I'll make the file extension optional (by replacing the dot with a space replacement) for the next build. In the mean time, you can avoid this issue in 2 steps.

1. Create a new plugin.

Product: VaultWiki
Hook Location: vault_url_encode
Execute Order: 5
Title: Fix for Cloud platform
PHP Code:

if (IMAGE_SPACE AND $namespaceid == IMAGE_SPACE)
{
	if ($this->setcache["$langid"] == 'U')
	{
		$replacementlist['.'] = ' ';
	}
	else
	{
		$allowstring = str_replace('\.', '', $allowstring);
	}
}

2. Go to AdminCP > Namespace Manager. In the Controls for "Image", click "Rebuild". This should remove the dot from the page URLs to prevent it from being detected as a file extension.

Thanks, pegasus! That fixed it. A few quick questions:

1. So users should still be advised to post article names that match the name-and-extension of the file that they are uploading, correct?

2. Will using [image]Image:Imagename_ext[/image] work? Or should they use the actual page title -- Image:Imagename.ext?

3. When we upgrade to the next build of VaultWiki, will we need to remove this plugin, or will it be automatically accepted (and not duplicated)?

Thanks again!

1/2. Both works, but they should continue to use the actual page title to avoid confusion.

3. This plugin will not be needed in the next build - it will be overwritten by the upgrade process. Instead, there will be a setting that addresses this.
