Hi DNNers...

When using the repository and deleting an entry, I find that the corresponding file in the file system remains.  Is this the intended behaviour of this module, or have I got it configured incorrectly?

Thanks for any ideas.

Best regards,
Rod

currently, that's the way the module works. the file is not deleted.  If you prefer it to work differently, you can post a request here...

Thanks Steve,

Seems strange that the delete operation is purely a database thing. I'll bet there are a lot of DNN installations around that have a lot of orphaned files in the file system from this design with no real way to telling what's what.

I'll log a request.

Thanks,
Rod
