Ability to delete old/unused images from galary

Ability to delete old/unused images from galary

Please add the ability for users to delete old and/or unused images from the image gallery. After a while it is very difficult to sort out and find the images we really want versus all the trial images which didn't work for some reason.

Hey @Zeen,

 

Welcome to the Community.

 

Please advise what image gallery you are referring to. Please provide any screenshots so we can better assist you.

 

I look forward to your reply.

Hi @RobynR,

 

When trying to paste an image, I get the error: "You do not have permission to upload images". But here are example steps:

  1. Go to Page with an image on it
  2. Double click on any image/button
  3. Choose ‘Replace’ (under Group – Content – Image section)

Result: The dialog that appears with “My images” has many images I no longer need/use.

Expected: Ability to deleted unwanted images.

 

Thank you!

Hey @Zeen,

 

Thanks for providing more details so I can better assist you. Next to "Replace," there is a trash can that you can press to delete the image. Do you see the trash can symbol?

 

 

@RobynR  The trash can only deletes the image from the website not the gallery. I would like a method to cleanup old images from the gallery.

Status changed to: Not currently planned

Hey @Zeen ,

 

Thanks for clarifying your feature request.

 

I'm sorry the workaround wasn't what you were looking for. This feature is currently not planned, but now our Product team will be aware of your request. Once more information becomes available from our Product Team, a Community moderator will update the status to the next phase. Keep an eye out for the email once this change has been made.

 


We appreciate your patience.

OK, thank you.

Please add this feature request so it can be voted up (new gold star option). I see several requests for the ability to delete uploaded images from "My Images" and I am adding my my name as well. It's in your best interest to add the feature to reduce the amount of images on your server, anyway.

We definitely need a way to manage our image library in Square Online.  I’ll also add that any solution will only be complete if we have the ability to manage all non-webpage objects — PDFs and other files, as well.  At the very least, just give us page that lists all uploaded files of any type with file management functionality.

 

Oh, and here is a link to a similar feature request that probably should be merged with this one.

Chiming in here as well.  I'm not a user of Square Online, but after reading some other sellers posts needing help with this I have come here in hopes to get the ball rolling as well. 

 

This is just a no brainier need.  Not just for the simple fact of removing images from your site that are no longer needed, but freeing up space for ones account which I can only assumed is a "shared" hosting would be beneficial for all.
