Title: Overwrite Uploads Author: Ian Dunn Published: 19 de març de 2011 Last modified: 4 d'agost de 2025 --- Cerca extensions ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/overwrite-uploads.svg) # Overwrite Uploads Per [Ian Dunn](https://profiles.wordpress.org/iandunn/) [Baixa](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/overwrite-uploads.1.2.2.zip) * [Detalls](https://ca.wordpress.org/plugins/overwrite-uploads/#description) * [Ressenyes](https://ca.wordpress.org/plugins/overwrite-uploads/#reviews) * [Instal·lació](https://ca.wordpress.org/plugins/overwrite-uploads/#installation) * [Desenvolupament](https://ca.wordpress.org/plugins/overwrite-uploads/#developers) [Suport](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/overwrite-uploads/) ## Descripció By default WordPress doesn’t overwrite an existing file if you upload a new one with the same name and directory. Instead, it appends a number to the end of the filename in order to make it unique, _e.g., `filename.jpg` becomes `filename1.jpg`_. That isn’t always the desired behavior, so this plugin makes it so that any files uploaded will automatically overwrite existing files **in the same folder**, rather than creating a second file with a unique name. It will not overwrite files in other folders. After activating the plugin, you won’t need to do anything else, it’ll start working automatically. If you run into problems, please check the FAQ and existing support forum posts before opening a new support request. ## Instal·lació For help installing this (or any other) WordPress plugin, please read the [Managing Plugins](https://codex.wordpress.org/Managing_Plugins) article on the Codex. Once the plugin is installed and activated, it will start to work automatically. ## PMF ### Why do I see multiple copies of the file in the Media Library WordPress allows files to have the same name if they’re not in the same directory. So, `wp-content/uploads/2013/11/pizza.jpg` can live alongside `wp-content/uploads/ 2013/12/pizza.jpg`. This plugin only deletes existing files if they are in the same folder that the new file will be placed in. Also, only Editor and Administrator accounts can overwrite the uploads of other users. You can customize this behavior using the `ovup_can_overwrite_upload` filter. ### Can I make a donation to support the plugin? I do this as a way to give back to the WordPress community, so I don’t want to take any donations, but if you’d like to give something I’d encourage you to make a microloan with [Kiva](http://www.kiva.org). ### Do you support this plugin? I’m happy to fix reproducible bugs, but I don’t have time to help you customize the plugin to fit your specific needs. ## Ressenyes ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/28a9a62795db3de2322892ba7b4eda32f2dd9bf32e69c898aae592c424d355d2? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Thank you](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/thank-you-2385/)󠁿 [Kimber254](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kimber254/) 28 de maig de 2020 1 resposta Thank you for updating the plugin. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fd276103d6ad55ad2d865a1c7714cb827274a9ad7f196af60c3436ceec42433b? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Still kinda working.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/still-kinda-working/)󠁿 [prohaska](https://profiles.wordpress.org/prohaska/) 7 de gener de 2020 It’s kind of working. I uploaded a bulk of 150 pix. all with a very simple name A10.jpg A11.jpg and so on. The Plugin worked. Some old versions of the images still remain in some part of the website. Maybe a caching problem…. But so far so good.

I installed it and tried to upload an image to overwrite another one…and there was no change. Wordpress preserved the initial upload just as it normally does. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/10690356a1ca2578260d593a7d79b615c092d9318a11a55d38a78d2be16183fb? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Clear as mud](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clear-as-mud-1/)󠁿 [Matt Peskett](https://profiles.wordpress.org/djmathu/) 3 de setembre de 2016 1 resposta Couldn’t find any instructions on how this is supposed to work nor any trace of it inside admin after install and activation.
