Deleting Files Uploaded Using the Text Editor

When using the text editor in a “Page” activity, for example, you can upload files such as PDFs or MP4s to that activity. If you later delete the activity, the file will also be deleted. However, if you only modify the content of the activity and remove the reference to the file, the file will remain on the server.

If you no longer want the file to be accessible or if you wish to free up disk space, you should delete the file manually.

Step-by-step Guide

To permanently delete a file without deleting the activity:

1. Go to the activity in question

2. Click on the “Manage files” icon in the text editor

3. Click on the file in question

4. Click on the “Delete” button

5. Confirm your action by clicking on “OK”

6. Close the modal window and click on the save button at the bottom of the page
