Remove files from an upload area

Is it possible to remove ALL upload files from a multi list with one click of a button, I have a multi list that gets republished each week but we want to remove all files before they get republished because they get changed each week.

That's brilliant, thank you

When I do a test on a new CMS table it works but when I try to implement this on an existing table I get this error: MySQL Error(1093): Error getting error record count: You can't specify target table 'cmsb__error_log' for update in FROM clause

Can you help please?

Hi MercerDesign, 

It's due to a change in MySQL 8.0 server.  In /lib/errorlog_functions.php can you try replacing this: 
$query = "DELETE FROM `$table` WHERE `num` < (SELECT `num` FROM `$table` ORDER BY `num` DESC LIMIT 1 OFFSET 999)";
With this: 
$query = "DELETE FROM `$table` WHERE num < (SELECT num FROM (SELECT num FROM `$table` ORDER BY num DESC LIMIT 999, 1) AS sub)";
Let me know if that works for you.

Thanks!

Thank you, that seems to have worked.
