Media Library permission checks

  • If permissions to ~/uploads/ are not set correctly (or was modified in some manner), deleting media will only delete database references (item(s) will disappear from the Media Library view) but the actual files are not deleted. However, when uploading media, permission errors are displayed.

    Is that the default behavior?

    Thank you for the link, filed a report.

    in normal conditions the temporary folder should delete the files at the end of the code (for this reason a temporary folder is used otherwise the problem lies in the server but WordPress should understand if you have such a defect), what error does it tell you?

    There is no error when deleting items in Media Library. The deletion goes through as expected. But when I check the filesystem, the items still exists. Afaik, there are no filesystem permission checks for deletions.

    install the health check plugin, go to permissions and then file system. /home/user/wp-content/uploads/ … current directory for attachment, your temp directory /home/user/temp/ or /home/.dummy/user/ etc.
