Clean empty file directories for ProcessWire pages

Summary


Goes through all of your /site/assets/files/ directories and removes those that have no files in them.

Pages with file/image fields require a directory, so you should expect that some of the removed directories will be re-created by these pages.

  1. Copy PageCleanEmptyDirs.module to /site/modules/
