Purpose of the mod

This mod adds a tab (Unused Media) to the Admin > Media page. It lists files which are present in the media folders on the server, but not registered with TNG.

Developer

This mod was developed by Warren S Gilbert

Requirements

  • A working TNG installation. Automated installation has been tested on TNG versions 7.1.3 to 12.0.1.
  • A backup of the TNG modules involved

Automated Installation

  1. Download the appropriate distribution for your TNG version from the download links in the status area in the upper right.
  2. Extract the unused_media.zip to your admin/mod_folder (V7) or mods (v8 or later).
  3. Follow the normal automated installation for Mod Manager, as shown in the example Mod Manager - Installing Config Files to install the unused_media.cfg.

Note that the mod adds lines to customconfig.php. If you do not already have a customconfig.php file, create a file named customconfig.php containing only the php opening and closing tags: -

<?php
?>

and copy it to your site in the same folder as the config.php file (usually the TNG root).

Note that the config file only includes the English language changes. If you support multiple languages, you will need to modify the config file to add the custom text for your other languages.

More Information

  • With this mod installed, files can be deleted from the server either individually or by deleting selected files.
  • Files can be excluded from the report and will then be recorded in file 'unusedmedia.txt' in the extensions folder for v12.0.0.1 or later, in the TNG root folder of your site if you are using TNG v8 or later, or the admin folder of your site if you are using TNG v7. If not already present, 'unusedmedia.txt' will be created the first time you choose to exclude a file. The file is optional, and the report will function whether or not it exists.
  • If you install v12.0.0.1 or later, and have used an earlier version of Unused Media, unusedmedia.txt and unusedmediatemp.txt will be in the TNG root. This version creates them in the extensions folder. unusedmedia.txt contains the names of media to be excluded. If you have excluded files from the report, and wish to continue excluding them, you should move this file to the extensions folder. Otherwise, both files can safely be deleted from the TNG root.
  • Excluded files are not normally listed, but there is an option for them to be shown, and they can then be included back in the normal report.

In the event of a problem

  • Try using the Mod Manager Remove capability
  • Or copy the backup versions of the TNG modules involved.

Side effects

As with most source code modifications, these changes will likely be overwritten during your next TNG revision upgrade and will need to be re-implemented. (Using the Mod Manager to remove the mod before the upgrade and re-installing the mod after the upgrade greatly simplifies this process).
