Deleting Text Files

Submitted by brentmitchell on Mon, 2011-11-14 18:52 in

Hi David,

The feed text files take up a lot of disk space...can we delete the text files in the /feeds/ folder after the feeds are uploaded into the database?

Hi Brent,

Sure you can, but bear in mind that after deleting a feed the corresponding /admin/ home page will display "De-Register" alongside that feed filename - but that is ONLY transient - nothing is deleted from the database and once the feed is restored (e.g. by updating with the latest version) the Import link will re-appear and the feed can / will be imported manually or by any automation process you have set-up.

Cheers,
David.
