Edited Images In Image Manager Leaves Cached Images In Folder?

Post by LeeUmm »

The topic might be confusing, wasn't sure how to word it, or what exactly the problem is.

If I edit an image in the image manager and save it, I see what I think is a cached version of the image left over. I get a filename like editor_aff900db0d14b04f1909566037b37f4a_7c90cf.gif. I can see this image when I use the file manager to browse the directory, or when using tinyMCE to include an image in a page content.

In my config file, I have the tmp directory set correctly with proper chmod value of 777:

$config['previews_path'] = '/home/site/public_html/tmp/cache';

Is this normal? It becomes confusing for clients as they see multiple images, one with a weird filename.

Can anybody confirm or deny this is normal behaviour? I've had the same issue occur with 2 different installs and 2 different webhosts, so I'm thinking maybe this is normal, though it seems odd.

I've seen this too actually. I don't have much else besides affirming the fact that I see this behavior as well.
