Delete attachments


#1

I can’t believe I am still asking for this ( my old thread about it from a few months ago seems to have been deleted ironically) but can someone delete all my attachments? I can’t add any more attachments as my attachments folder is full.

I’ve posted about this multiple times over the last few months and nobody seems to want to engage with me on this. It cant be that big of a job can it?

Thanks in advance if you can get this done.

Anyone? Pretty Please!?

Your threads have probably been ignored because it’s a bit tiresome to help people do stuff that they’re actually able to do themselves.

@leigh

It’s only tiresome because you CAN’T delete attachments over a year old. I placed a request that the function be added or that someone should do it internally but it has been overlooked or ignored. I, myself, am almost out of room to store attachments and do not have the ability to delete them myself.

So it’s in fact, not a user problem but a flaw in how attachments are handled.

Please help us remedy this. This hurts some of your more tenured members. Or at the least, no longer count attachments over a year old in the quota.

Sorry to be so tiresome but if there is a way to delete those attachments then i am somehow being insanely stupid because I can’t find it. As Bitter said above they are over a year old.

Hello egselent & Bitter,

Yes you’re right, you can’t delete attachments after the thread has been closed :banghead:

@egselent I have deleted all of yours
@Bitter I cant see where you have ‘placed a request’. do you just want all your attachments 2008 back deleted? (don’t want to delete anything important).

Sorry for the confusion.
This is a feature built into vBulletin, if I find a way to turn it off I will.

I think I asked in a different thread in the FAQs. It’s not particularly clear where I should do that or I’m staring right at it and don’t know.

And sure, anything too old for me to delete myself can go away. Thanks!! :beer:

Might be nice to have that fixed/changed or have it just not count in the quota for the current year.
