mmm , yes
you can upload via ftp a file with the same name, but the information of the list in the file manager tab will not be updated, unless you edit manually with phpmyadmin.
I have opened issue 320
code.google.com/p/flexicontent/i
... ail?id=320
Some times a file is already assigned to many items, deleting the old one and reuploading is not convenient or feasible if items are too many.
Plus we need
-- a list of items using a file in a file fields.
-- a list of items using an image in image fields.
-- a counter of items using an image in minigallery fields
-- a list of items using an image in minigallery fields
Current file manager only supports 2 folders secure and media.
Also issue 308:
code.google.com/p/flexicontent/i
... ail?id=308
Allow subfolders in the file manager:
-- either modify file manager by adding an extra psrsmeter called "sub-folder"
-- or since we already have the "directory" parameter in the file manager to make media and secure folders able to have sub-folders
-- Also maybe allow media field (minigallery and maybe image too) to use files that are not entered in the filemanager but instead use files for a per item folder, or a per item+field folder
The above means that you will enter a folder AAA in the configuration of the field and then the minigallery of each item will display files from folder e.g. AAA/item_864/
