Option to delete orphan files?

[poVoq]

• flagrow/upload extension version: latest
• flarum version: 0.1.0-beta.7.1
• upload adapter causing issues: local

It seems like files uploaded in topics that are later deleted or removed stay in the system? Would it be possible to have some sort of administrator option to purge all orphan files? How would I go about deleting them manually?

Thanks!

Hi @poVoq ,

Upload at some point received a valuable tool which stores information about what file was uploaded where and to what post/discussion. In future versions there will be an option to delete media for posts that no longer exist.

I'd gladly add the functionality now, but I have other responsibilities that are of higher priority sadly.

Thanks for your understanding.

After flarum beta 8 is released I'll be able to revisit this extension and bundle some new features into it..

That would be a useful feature

Any news on this? I think this is a pretty important feature.

I would like to see this feature too.

I'll look at releasing the new version this week 👍 I'm sorry, other things have been pushing this on the backlog.
