I forgot that I am using the Gravity Forms Update Post plugin: <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-update-post/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-update-post/</a></p> <p>Perhaps I should contact this developer. This is great feature for websites that are using Post fields as an easy way to publish content without access to the dashboard. I am using this method for a dirt-simple college e-portfolio system. The post revision method (which relates to my original question) is a necessary feature if we use the "form as publish" method. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-replace-an-uploaded-file#post-85407 Tue, 30 Oct 2012 23:58:35 +0000 Chris Hajer 85407@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>How are you allowing users to access their entry in a widget, and what is edit mode? Those don't sound like core functions in WordPress. How did you add that functionality to your WordPress site? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-replace-an-uploaded-file#post-84747 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 12:25:20 +0000 weevie833 84747@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I am able to incorporate a file upload into a form OK, but if the user wishes to replace that file with a different one, the process runs into an error. Users can access the content they entered in a form via the dashboard widget. When Edit mode is activated, they can click on an "x" button to delete a file, which is then replaced by a Browse button.</p> <p>However, even if they browse a new file and then Update, the file is not replaced. I suspect this is not the correct method to do this. What can I do? </p>
