I will release a new version soon with this feature as well. * Thread Starter [boneceklp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/boneceklp/) * (@boneceklp) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/delete-folder-2/#post-11907233) * Thank you for editing. Unfortunately, you cannot delete files. A new window opens with the attachment. * LP * Plugin Author [Fahad Mahmood](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fahadmahmood/) * (@fahadmahmood) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/delete-folder-2/#post-11907682) * Here is a little misunderstanding. As we were not uploading file from the wp- docs so we weren’t editing and/or deleting the files from here. You were being redirected to the library page, there you could edit or delete the files with responsibility. * Library files can be used in multiple posts and pages, so alone wp-docs settings page should not take the decision of removing files from disk. * But, in upcoming version i am removing the file entry from wp-docs in fact. Instead of removing me the file from library, i am just clearing it from current directory. So misunderstanding is clear now. * Thread Starter [boneceklp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/boneceklp/) * (@boneceklp) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/delete-folder-2/#post-11908485) * In the current version, after deleting and reloading the page, the file will reappear. * I understand that the file is only deleted in WPDOCS. * And I can’t delete a file with a longer name. * [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZeJuV6rLQ-RN4URRq-2iRm_YuG8V2-H-/view?usp=sharing](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZeJuV6rLQ-RN4URRq-2iRm_YuG8V2-H-/view?usp=sharing) * LP * [raissufyan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/raissufyan/) * (@raissufyan) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/delete-folder-2/#post-11908632) * Please wait for the next release with this fix. * Plugin Author [Fahad Mahmood](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fahadmahmood/) * (@fahadmahmood) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/delete-folder-2/#post-11908956) * We are releasing 1.2.8, please check and confirm the delete functionality in it. * Thread Starter [boneceklp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/boneceklp/) * (@boneceklp) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/delete-folder-2/#post-11909008) * Yes, now I can delete folders and files. But only if they have a short title. If they have a long name, the trash icon will not appear. * [https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ats3N-UePuNbLzo0W4IGP4YNIIBUZu3i](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ats3N-UePuNbLzo0W4IGP4YNIIBUZu3i) * Plugin Author [Fahad Mahmood](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fahadmahmood/) * (@fahadmahmood) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/delete-folder-2/#post-11909016) * You must be missing some CSS update. Try to delete the plugin and install it again, because CSS has already this fix with long filenames. I have tried it with a really long name and i can see edit and trash icons. * Thread Starter [boneceklp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/boneceklp/) * (@boneceklp) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/delete-folder-2/#post-11909030) * The problem is when you make a space in the name. The name appears on two lines, but the trash icon does not show. * Plugin Author [Fahad Mahmood](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fahadmahmood/) * (@fahadmahmood) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/delete-folder-2/#post-11909039) * Paste your file name here, and i am pasting two examples here as well. * 1) aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.png 2) aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa – Copy.png * Both are giving same results, no overlapping to trash icon. You must be trying something odd. Maybe your files are cached. * Check here on front-end as well [http://demo.androidbubble.com/wp-docs/?dir=4173](http://demo.androidbubble.com/wp-docs/?dir=4173) - This reply was modified 6 years, 8 months ago by [Fahad Mahmood](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fahadmahmood/). * Thread Starter [boneceklp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/boneceklp/) * (@boneceklp) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/delete-folder-2/#post-11909052) * ok, and now you can try delete file with name aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa – Copy.png in back-end… * 🙂 * Plugin Author [Fahad Mahmood](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fahadmahmood/) * (@fahadmahmood) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/delete-folder-2/#post-11909057) * Please watch this video for the answer to your question: Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total) The topic ‘Delete folder’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/wp-docs/assets/icon-256x256.gif?rev=2286794) * [WP Docs](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-docs/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-docs/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-docs/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-docs/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-docs/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-docs/reviews/) * 12 replies * 0 participants * Last reply from: [Fahad Mahmood](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fahadmahmood/) * Last activity: [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/delete-folder-2/#post-11909057) * Status: resolved
