No config files generating for Images (and files?)

Ey up!

If this is something obvious please reply. Otherwise ignore.

Basicly what it says. Been messing around I know.

What could be the reason for no config files for images appearing - not being generated.

Those files that Kirby generates for files/image metadata.

Tested it with starterkit and it works - but the project is in shambles still. A load of delicious Bolognese waiting.

So what did I break. Anoyone - Bueller?

Do you upload files through the panel? I guess you mean the txt files that are usually created when you upload a file and that sits next to the file in the page folder

Indeed the text files created with the images/files. They only come if uploaded through panel?

No. I copy them into the folder and select them then from the panel.

I did upload the one I tested with the Starterkit.

@texnixe is always right. And she is fast. I mean really fast.

The files/images need to be uploaded through the panel

Then we get nice meta.txt/.md files for images and files.

Life is good.

But then another question lingers:

Is there a way to generate these missing files?

Yes, you could loop through the file and update them. Or you create them in the file system manually or through a shell script.
