Overwrite Uploaded Files

[redeye]

What about a Request for Overwriting the uploaded Files instead of Incrementing a number which is added to the Filename? My Userfiles Folders are full of different Files in different Versions.

This is actually an easy fix. Just do the following:

In editor/filemanager/browser/default/connectors/php/config.php add the line: $ConfigOverwriteFiles?=1;

Then, in editor/filemanager/browser/default/connectors/php]# vi commands.php change: if ( is_file( $sFilePath ) ) to if ( $ConfigOverwriteFiles?!=1 && is_file( $sFilePath ) )

[Brad Duell]

$ConfigOverwriteFiles? should actually read

$Config(OPEN BRACKET SINGLE QUOTE)OverwriteFiles(SINGLE QUOTE CLOSE BRACKET)

I think that there was another ticket to control the overwriting, including the option to rename the exiting file.

another issue is that this is done only for PHP, so other people will ask for the same behavior in their servers.

What happens if the permissions of the existing file doesn't allow to overwrite it?

the what's new entry is missing.

I found #306. It is closed as duplicate of "fixed" issue, but overwriting is missing. I think we should reopen #306 and close this ticket as duplicate.

[Frederico Caldeira Knabben]

Let's leave #306 closed. This ticket can be the reference for the overwrite feature.

Where's the patch for ASP? Will this be included in the 3.0 version of FCKEditor?

The file browser is now distributed as an external application ​CKFinder, so the built-in filemanager is no longer maintained.

Let's trace this feature request on the CKFinder forum: ​http://cksource.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=7416
