 * hello – i want to create a page that has a file to be updated on a weekly basis.
   therefore uploading a file of the same name to be overwritten.
 * if i upload a file with the same name each week, will this plugin rename the 
   file or simply overwrite it?
 * thank you.

 * By default the plugin will replace the file. Is this what you want?
