Created on 20 October 2021, almost 4 years ago

Updated 3 July 2025, 3 months ago

Problem/Motivation

The module only suppress the active file asssociated to the media and not all previous associated files.

Steps to reproduce

-activate the media entity file replace module as well as this module
- configure it to work for a media type
-replace a media file, without the overwrite options from the media entity file replace module
-delete the media and the associated file

=> only the active file is delete , not the previous ones

Proposed resolution

delete all associated files

I've added the necessary code to delete the old file if a new file is added to the media item.
This doesn't provide the optional toggle that is presented when deleting a media item, and instead always removes the old file if it was replaced.
