====== Ideas for future development ======
To avoid broken links from external page, create an entry in the ''.changes'' meta file to indicate page has been moved (and where it has moved). So a message can be displayed when someone comes to that page that has moved. also a specific header could be sent to automatically redirect user or bot...

Maybe also add a copy feature...

Use the [[devel:events]] system to play nice with other plugins that use events.
> Actually the only problem was that deleting the old page was not signaling IO_WIKIPAGE_WRITE. Change line 218 of ''admin.php'' from:

<code>
if (@file_exists(wikiFN($opts['new_id']))) @unlink(wikiFN($ID));
</code>

to:

<code>
if (@file_exists(wikiFN($opts['new_id']))) saveWikiText($ID, '', 'Deleted by PageMove plugin');
</code>
