Edit uploaded file attachments?
Hello,
Is there any way to edit uploaded files on a post?
Ricky
Yes, that's what I mean. It's a pretty basic feature; surely users would like to have that option? Is it possible, admin?
Thanks for the heads up re: project/tool/wiki page.
Ricky
I also find this frustrating, and wish we would have the option.
Hm. Interesting. I'll look into this.
Thanks, Ginger.
Hi Ginger. Any more on this?
Hi Ricky,
Just getting back into a few tickets here. I apologize for the silence.
To clarify, when you talk about editing attachments, do you mean being able to delete an attachment and upload a new one?
It would be great to know what type of behaviour you expect, and I can then get a better sense of how to address it.
A sample of your post where this is needed would also be good to see.
Hi Ginger,
Yes, I mean to delete old attachments and upload new attachments. I think the Pd forum is a good example of the functionality that I would like to see:

Here's an example of a post on here where, IMHO, it is needed:

Hiya Ricky,
Thanks for the heads-up. I was wondering about this, because it had been a previous feature for sure. I think it had just been reset in our settings panel from an old update on the site. It should be back now, with a much larger preview image + a display of the image name as a caption.
I've attached a sample image below as a test as well.
Hey @Raja,
The "detach" link removes the attachment from the reply, but the item will still exist on our servers. (It's a Wordpress thing.) "Delete" will actually remove it completely. I can see how the language is confusing. Will see what I can do about this.
As for the #-of-downloads counter; that's an interesting idea. I'll look into it, too. Thanks for the suggestion.
