[pmwiki-users] Weird one for those that use the attachtable cookbook

So, I'm building my new pmwiki, all lastest, etc.

I wanted to install attachtable, and it doesn't matter if I use latest, or the 
hacked up copy from my old pmwiki.

I'm using per page uploads.


What I'm seeing is that if enabled and updated in Site/UploadQuickReference to 
be used, all uploads from all pages of same group end up in the uploads area of 
the page I'm on when I view the attachments.  Thus the attachtable markup seems 
to copy them all into the page uploads area from the entire group.

I can't remember if that behavior was on the old pmwiki site or not, it's just 
weird.  Anybody have any idea how to get it to behave and not copy all 
attachments from every Group/* into Group/Page attachments?

That is, if I have

uploads/Test/One/bigfile.txt

and on Test/Two, there are no uploads.  When I view attach for Test/Two, the 
following shows up:

uploads/Test/Two/bigfile.txt

(but of course worse in real life, as it's a copy of every attachment for all 
pages under Test/*)

While I get that attachtable might be pure hackery. I like it's attachment and 
version handling.
