Upload DbClean with multiple files

Upload DbClean with multiple files

joshlevine102joshlevine102 Posts: 44Questions: 16Answers: 2

Hey I tried adding a second column to my main table, so I now have file1 and file2 int columns which are foreign keys into the same files table. Is this the best practice for having a fixed number of file uploads? Should I use a separate file table for file2? Maybe using uploadMany and mjoin would be better. I'm running into the issue where if I try to use DbClean on both Upload fields, the DbClean for one field tries to delete the other field's files. Hope this makes sense. Thanks.

    Yes you are right - the DbClean action isn't really well designed for this scenario at the moment.

    Using the upload many field is probably the way to go, but it doesn't provide a hard limit on the number of files being uploaded.

    Good idea for an enhancement though - thanks!
