If we give 'Create directories' permission than the user should also be able to delete/rename directories himself and not asking site administrators for that task. This would make the module polished and more mature otherwise it is too raw with high potential for garbage collecting (especially on sites with HUGE userbase). Thanks.

I totally agree

This was my first thought after creating a new folder with IMCE, too: How to delete this temp folder with IMCE? This feature is IMHO a must have for IMCE Mkdir.

Feature request: Delete subdirectory and all files it contains.
Permission request: Delete subdirectories.

So IMCE would almost be like a FTP client.

This is ready for testing. Note that it only works with IMCE 6.x-1.x-dev

Has the testing on this feature been completed? When are these changes going to make it into the release version? We are all looking forward to having it!!! :-)

Test the dev version at your (test)server and post the results pls. For me it works fine.

Is there any new release supporting this feature?

the version is a little bit confusing.
After some search I found the path was commited in July 13 and there's no release tar ball. So you need to pull the CVS head.

I just tried

  cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal-contrib checkout contributions/modules/imce_mkdir

and it seems to be fine.

Please note: the module's page in drupal.org lists *no* downloadable versions at all - not even a 'dev':

http://drupal.org/project/imce_mkdir

If the module is ready to be tested, then perhaps an official BETA version should be released. Most (regular) users are uncomfortable having to checkout CVS comits, so making the usual tarball donwloads available from Drupal's project page is not only friendlier, it will also attract more participation.

The dev versions have been removed from the normal project page views. So instead use "view all releases" so you see the dev there: http://drupal.org/node/257164/release

Roi, it still doesn't seem to be able to delete a directory. I created a directory called test which had no files in it. When I tried to click the delete link for that folder I got a message directing me to select a file.

I checked out the cvs version as posted in post #9 and installed. I did see the option to provide permissions to delete directories and in the IMCE window the menu changed te "manage directories", but I only see the option to add a directory. This is a great modules, but it is only have complete without the delete directory option.

Because likely we use different versions. In #6 & #11 I erroneously linked to the dev version (and used the cvs version) but ufku hadn't committed the changes from 13.07. 2008 (incorporating the deletion feature) to the Drupal 6.1 branch as he said in #3. Instead he used the MAIN branch and there is no release for that. Therefore the approach of #9 works or - if you don't have a CVS Client - then download each file (revision 1.2) manually from the cvs repository:

http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/contributions/modules/imce_mkdir/...
http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/contributions/modules/imce_mkdir/...
http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/contributions/modules/imce_mkdir/...
http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/contributions/modules/imce_mkdir/...

This is certainly a must have feature - nice work. It's too bad it's not part of IMCE itself.

Is there a link to the updated module yet?

I have downloaded the files from the CVS repository - I now see the 'Manage Directories' link, but it still only gives me the option to add a directory, not delete.

Is there something else I need to do, or is this still not the updated code?

I uninstall IMCE mkdir before install new file on revision 1.2 . I have a remove option and it work fine. But still need rename option.

Works now - thanks. Fully uninstalling and reinstalling works. Nice module.
