Only seems to affect 2010 folders... Hmmm...

Had this issue also, but it was a misconfiguration, so check out the documentation and your configutation...

Think it was the definition which masterdoctype to use from, but I am not sure cause this some time ago...

hth, Thomas

I couldn't figure it out so I created a modified version of Nibble's DateFolder package. I added some of the functionality of AutoFolders, like specify the date property and auto-move republished nodes, but it's simpler and seemingly more stable than AutoFolders. I just didn't get the whole rootFolder thing with AutoFolders. The way I did it is I check if the saved document's parent is a DateFolder. If it is, I go up the node tree recursively until I find a parent that is NOT, then i create the dateFolders starting from that node. Works quite well.

I am also having this republishing problem.

I re-built the autofolders dll to fix the initial publishing issue and that works ok.

However once my node is published and I modify the date - the structure is again created at the level of the node I am editting and not at level 2.

Here is my config - if anyone could help that would be great..

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<settings>

<folderProviders>

<folderProvider alias="DateFolderProvider_Simple"

               assembly="/bin/AutoFolders"

               type="AutoFolders.Providers.DateFolderProvider">

<property alias="MonthFormat">MM</property>

<property alias="YearFormat">yyyy</property>

<property alias="DateField">commentaryDate</property>

</folderProvider>

<folderProvider alias="DateFolderProvider_Full"

rootFolders="//* [@isDoc and @level=2]"

  assembly="/bin/AutoFolders"

  type="AutoFolders.Providers.DateFolderProvider">    

<property alias="MonthFormat">MM</property>

<property alias="YearFormat">yyyy</property>

<property alias="DateField">commentaryDate</property>

</folderProvider>

</folderProviders>

<autoFolders>

<autoFolder docType="CommentaryDetail"

           folderProviderAlias="DateFolderProvider_Full"

           folderDocType="AutoFolder" />

</autoFolders>

</settings>

Hi Stuart,

What versions of Umbraco / Autofolders are you using?

Looking at your config, it looks like you've got your ' rootFolders="//* [@isDoc and @level=2] ' attribute in the wrong place - this should be an attribute of <autofolder  /> , not <folderProvider  /> .

I've also found that for config changes to take effect you have to disturb the autofolders.dll in the bin (move it out the bin and then back in).

Cheers
