I've search and search and could not find even one single mention of deleting files in the manage attachments window. My Folder has grown very large and I think that may be why it's not letting me upload anymore files. I don't get any error. It just loads and then nothing. Yes I've tried both modes. So how do I delete files from the Manage Attachments Window? I can't figure out how.

Try dragging them into the bottom and then delete from there I'm not sure if that will work though

Thx thats what I was looking for.

Edit: Wait… The list there seems to be only the files I have linked somewhere. Not the files I've uploaded and removed link for more recent vers. When I Add files there is a window there that list all my previously uploaded files. This list is massive. 5 pages long. My linked list is only one page.

edit: Weird looks like unlinked files don't count towards your file space limit. So you probably reached the maximum number of files. It looks like deleting files here http://villavu.com/forum/profile.php?do=editattachments only unlinks them. Umm…idk try pming or mentioning hobbit

After you delete them with attachment manager it should remove the reference for them from whatever post they were originally attached in. The forum runs a cron job every hour and it deletes all unreferenced attachments. So if you delete it in attachment manager your free space may not be affected for another hour.
