Hi,
when I delete a record with an image uploaded, the record is delete but the image is not delete!

How do I delete the image when the record is deleted?

Thenks a lot.
Sorry for my english.

you use callback_before_delete to call a function which deletes the image

Yeap [member='xxaxxo'] is right. And I also have an example of how to use the callback_before_delete at http://www.grocerycr...k_before_delete . But again you have to do it manually.

So I am trying to implement this as well.. here is what I have but it does not delete the file , it deletes the entry from the table but it doesnt update the crud ui. in other words i have to refresh the page to see it remove from the table. i use the standard path for uploads that grocerycrud comes with. here is what i have..

public function editevents(){





if (!$this->tank_auth->is_logged_in()) {

redirect('/auth/login/');



} else {



$this->load->library('grocery_CRUD');

$this->grocery_crud->set_table('event');

$this->grocery_crud->set_theme('datatables');

$this->grocery_crud->required_fields('eventtype','fileurl','header','description','date');



$this->grocery_crud->set_field_upload('fileurl','assets/uploads/files');

$this->grocery_crud->callback_after_upload(array($this,'example_callback_after_upload'));

$this->grocery_crud->callback_before_delete(array($this,'delete_event_pic_before_delete'));

        $output = $this->grocery_crud->render();



        $this->_events_output($output);    



}



}



public function delete_event_pic_before_delete($primary_key)

{

   $user= $this->db->where('eventid',$primary_key)->get('event')->row();

   

 $url=base_url('assets/uploads/files').'/'.$user->fileurl;

unlink($url);

return true;



}

with out trying to add the delete before call back this worked perfectly. please help, thanks

Thanks to share your code. I think it is better to do:

$url= 'assets/uploads/files/'.$user->fileurl;

than

$url=base_url('assets/uploads/files').'/'.$user->fileurl;

So you will have:

public function delete_event_pic_before_delete($primary_key)

{

   $user= $this->db->where('eventid',$primary_key)->get('event')->row();

  

$url= 'assets/uploads/files/'.$user->fileurl;

unlink($url);

return true;

}
