New File Not Replacing Previous Version

If you attempt to overwrite an image or document with one of the same filename, you will receive the following message:

Even if you check the file to overwrite it, the old version will continue to display. This is due to the system's cache. Just like a browser, its cache may retain and display previous versions of items for quick recall. To avoid the cache:

1. Upload as New Filename

  • Locate the file on your computer, then rename it. It can be as little as one character different from the original.

Try adding a date, or a revision number to the end of the original filename. See examples below.

Date 

Revision #

Original: monthly-schedule.pdf Original: staff-photo.jpg
New: monthly-schedule01-17.pdf New: staff-photo-2.jpg
