I'm using the File Upload Element to allow users to upload a photo of the person represented by a record. When this record is later deleted, the uploaded file remains on the server despite my having selected the "Delete Image" option in the element settings. Any idea how to get this working?

We have now opened a commercial services section here on the forum for registered users. If you have a Fabrik project that you wish to have someone work on for you, post it under Help Wanted. If you are an application developer and wish to earn some money helping others, post your details under Fabrik Application Developers.
Both of these are unmoderated. It will be up to both parties to work out the details and come to an agreement.

Well, if you have existing data, you can't turn AJAX off. Or rather, you can, but any existing upload data will be lost, and the elements will be empty. With AJAX enabled, we create a separate one-to-many table for the upload data, it isn't stored in the main table for the form.
At what point are you seeing that error? When sunbitting the form?

Interesting. After turning AJAX off, the list view throws the error mentioned above. I decided to turn AJAX on (so I could see the list) and then delete all of the records I had in that list. Then I turned AJAX off and proceeded to add the records back in again. Now it's working fine. It might be good to put a little bit of instruction in the element settings indicating that once you turn AJAX on, you can't go back without deleting all of the list data.
