    How do I delete photos previously uploaded to Wacco

    Over the course of advertising things on Wacco, I have uploaded photos. I tried to upload more today for a new ad and the upload manager said I reached my limit. Does anybody know how to delete ancient photos I don't need to make more space. I see no way to do it. It's annoying.

    Re: How do I delete photos previously uploaded to Wacco

    Near as I can tell, you need to go to the post where the pictures were originally attached, select "edit" then select add or delete photos, which brings up the photo / uploader pop up window. You then see all the pictures you have added, but can't delete them. You can, however, delete the photos from the bottom of that window. If you delete them all and click "done" it will ask you to add a picture. If you close the window, the pictures will be gone from the post. I just checked, and, unfortunately, they are still in the uploader thingy... there is a note there that uploads not utilized within one hour will be deleted, perhaps the cache will clear now that I've removed them from the post. Usually, I just delete my posts after the item is sold, and I don't follow the default path, which leaves the deleted post on the server for the mods to see, but click the box "physically remove my post" or something like that. I've done that tons of times and the photos are not there, so I assume that clears it. If you've already done a "soft" delete on the posts and the pictures are still in your upload space, I guess you'll need some moderator help.

    Definitely a bug that needs fixing... Barry?

    I don't think you can--- Barry likes to keep them. You know how most guys have a secret stash of pornography? Well, Barry has a secret stash of old photos posted on WACCO and late at night he likes to look at them, remember the old days and dream about the glory of vast empires and internet IPOs to come.

    Phil's right - I've been coveting your old attachments, especially the one's of couches for sale from a few years ago, and I hope you don't opt to remove them. But, if you insist, here's how you can remove your old attachments:



    Let me know if there is still space being used by your attachments after you have deleted all of them. You may not be able to delete attachments from expired posts. But I can help you with that.
