Removed the delete all images button or move it away from delete image button

4 votes

We have had a number of issue when deleting older images with the delete images button being next to the delete image button and this keeps causing expensive restores.
Please remove this button or at least move it and make it much harder to do in error.

I thought this too! It looks so easy to do by mistake.

If you follow the instructions in this Guide, you can safely delete images: https://support.ekm.com/support/solutions/articles/44002424322 :)

To be honest Eve , deleting images isn't the problem , not deleting all of our images is the problem.
The button placement is its is so similar to the delete image button and should be in red away from the delete image button, it's just too easy to select and it has been done in the past by three members of my team thinking they were just deleting an image.

Hi Charles, have a read of the Guide I've linked above - deleting images from the File Manager won't remove the images from live products. This is to avoid situations where product and category images are deleted in error. :)
