Does anyone know how to delete a file that was uploaded to the Files section?
(to get to files, at the left, see User Menu, My Files)

I don't know how to delete a file, but it apparently overwrites if you upload a file with the same name...

I think Limor has to do it for you. You might want to PM him.

You can "Submit Article" (link in User menu) and when you are in the editor mode, one of the icons is "insert image". It will open another interface which is a proper file manager that allows you to delete, rename and move files.

I can get to the file manager, and type in the url of the photo. Then what? I tried the help file under the delete topic and nothing. The other topics are there but not the delete topic.

It won't let me type anything into the directory field. I see no photo(s) listed.

I don't see any delete function. What am I missing?

Press the link called "Submit Article"

Wait till the page completes and then press this icon: Image

It will open a new popup window (make sure popups are not blocked at this stage) containing a full file management interface.
