Hi all,

I have the following problem: when i delete a document, joomdoc doesn't delete the file on the server. I had the same problem with Docman and the only way to solve it was modifying the code. I understand that the docman let the user to assign many documents to the same file, but my customer need to handle a 1 file -> 1 document mapping. How can i modify Joomdoc code so that when a document is deleted, also the file on the server is deleted ??

Thanks in advance

Hi,

in the meantime I found a solution :).

Open the file document.php located in

<site root>/components/com_joomdoc/helpers

then add the following code

$database->setQuery("SELECT dmfilename FROM #__joomdoc WHERE id='" . $database->getEscaped($uid) . "'");
$result = $database->loadResult();

if ($database->getErrorNum()) {
echo $database->stderr();
return false;
}
$file = JPATH_ROOT . "\\joomdocs\\" . $result;
if (!unlink($file)) {
DocmanHelper::_returnTo('cat_view' , _DML_ORPHANS_PROBLEM , $doc->catid);
}

before

$doc->remove ( array ($uid ) );

in the funcion "deleteDocument"

Any suggestion that can optimize the previous code, or to correct any problem that the code can cause, is welcome ^^

Best Regards
