Description
When I delete an image from a node using the delete checkbox for the imagefield, the files are deleted from my standard file folder. But they're not removed from the imagecache folder. How can I remedy this?
#1
I can't even change the chmod permissions for any folders in imagecache or deeper! I understand the fundamental security reasons for this, but in a sense it is also very inconvenient. When I wish to remove images from a node that are in CCK imagefields, it's annoying that the old ones are permanently retained and I have to constantly upload images with new file names.
#2
I have the same issue. Could the maintainer of this module respond us - is it module's feature or bug? I don't personally care about permissions, but deleting the file from node edit form doesn't work.

flush your imagecache preset... It will get rid of old images... there are perm fixes in 1.4... You can probably blame your umask on your server for the 755 perms... I'm overriding the umask when creating dirs now.. .It's still up to you to keep the group perms straight using a sticky bit...
