Deleting images permanently from the site

Ok. I've searched on the community to determine how I can delete an image permanently but haven't found anything. Lots of references to deleting an image by clicking on the image element.

Question: How do I "explore" the image gallery? I want to go through it and clean up any images no longer used by the site.

I ask the question because when I "archive and download" the entire site from the "Settings" page, it always includes an uploads path that has ALL of my old images that I have ever uploaded. I want to clean that up.

So is there an image gallery explorer that allows me to trawl through every image I ever uploaded even though I no longer use it on the site?

Just being a clean freak I guess but it is taking up disk space on weebly so I am guessing weebly would appreciate us cleaning it up?!!! Smiley Happy

Unfortunately, there is not a way to see the file directory or delete files on your own. I believe you can submit a request to have specific files deleted and Weebly can do it for you.

This is one of the most frequent requests in the Community. I recommend you take a look in the Vote On Features section and add your kudos to an existing request for this feature. Here is a link:

Hi @ArtisticCount You can send one of us mods a private message here with a direct link to the image.

You can also reach out to our support team by scrolling to the bottom of our Help Center and clicking the contact us button. Once you see the automated chat window try typing something like "speak with a rep" to be directed to the teams available to your account.
