## Опис

By default WordPress doesn’t overwrite an existing file if you upload a new one 
with the same name and directory. Instead, it appends a number to the end of the
filename in order to make it unique, _e.g., `filename.jpg` becomes `filename1.jpg`_.

That isn’t always the desired behavior, so this plugin makes it so that any files
uploaded will automatically overwrite existing files **in the same folder**, rather
than creating a second file with a unique name. It will not overwrite files in other
folders.

After activating the plugin, you won’t need to do anything else, it’ll start working
automatically. If you run into problems, please check the FAQ and existing support
forum posts before opening a new support request.

## Постављање

For help installing this (or any other) WordPress plugin, please read the [Managing Plugins](https://codex.wordpress.org/Managing_Plugins)
article on the Codex.

Once the plugin is installed and activated, it will start to work automatically.

## ЧПП

### Why do I see multiple copies of the file in the Media Library

WordPress allows files to have the same name if they’re not in the same directory.
So, `wp-content/uploads/2013/11/pizza.jpg` can live alongside `wp-content/uploads/
2013/12/pizza.jpg`. This plugin only deletes existing files if they are in the same
folder that the new file will be placed in.

Also, only Editor and Administrator accounts can overwrite the uploads of other 
users. You can customize this behavior using the `ovup_can_overwrite_upload` filter.

### Can I make a donation to support the plugin?

I do this as a way to give back to the WordPress community, so I don’t want to take
any donations, but if you’d like to give something I’d encourage you to make a microloan
with [Kiva](http://www.kiva.org).

### Do you support this plugin?

I’m happy to fix reproducible bugs, but I don’t have time to help you customize 
the plugin to fit your specific needs.

It’s kind of working. I uploaded a bulk of 150 pix. all with a very simple name 
A10.jpg A11.jpg and so on. The Plugin worked. Some old versions of the images still
remain in some part of the website. Maybe a caching problem…. But so far so good.
PS: Newest Version of WordPress – Jan. 2020 und WooCommerce 2020…

I used this plugin for years and found it super helpful but it doesn’t work any 
more with WordPress 5.2 and I had to de-install it. A pity it wasn’t maintained!

This plugin seems incompatible with the current version of Wordpress. I installed
it and tried to upload an image to overwrite another one…and there was no change.
Wordpress preserved the initial upload just as it normally does.

Couldn’t find any instructions on how this is supposed to work nor any trace of 
it inside admin after install and activation.
