## Beskrivning

**A free, lightweight and easy to use plugin that allows you to seamlessly replace
an image or file in your Media Library by uploading a new file in its place. No 
more deleting, renaming and re-uploading files! Now fully compatible with [WP Offload Media!](https://wordpress.org/plugins/amazon-s3-and-cloudfront/)

New beta feature! You can now remove the background of your images for better integration
with eCommerce solutions! Supported by the friendly team that created [ShortPixel](https://wordpress.org/plugins/shortpixel-image-optimiser/)
🙂

#### En riktig tidsparare

Don’t you find it tedious and complicated to first delete a file and then upload
another one with the exact same name every time you want to update an image or other
uploaded file in the WordPress media library?

Inte längre!

Nu kan du ersätta valfri uppladdad fil direkt i vyn ”Redigera media” (där funktionen
rätteligen hör hemma). Mediafiler kan ersättas på två sätt:

#### Det är enkelt att ersätta en fil

 1. Simply replace the file. This option requires you to upload a file of the same 
    type as the file you want to replace. The attachment name remains the same regardless
    of what the file you upload is called.
 2. Replace the file, use the new file name, and update all links. If you check this
    option, the old file will be replaced with the name and type of the file you are
    uploading. All links pointing to the current file will be updated to point to the
    new file name. Additional options for the folder to put the new file in or the 
    date of the new file are also available on the replace screen.

This plugin is very powerful and a must-have for all major websites built with WordPress.
It also offers a preview of the replaced image!

#### New beta feature: You can now remove the background of any image!

Similar to replacing media, you can also remove the background of the images from
the Media Library! The background removal feature sends the images to ShortPixel’s
API, removes the background and sends them back in a preview window. If everything
looks good, just replace the image with the one that has the background removed!
If the source image is a PNG file, you will get a transparent background, while 
the other images default to a solid white background. You also have the option to
choose a different color with an embedded color picker.
 The background removal 
feature is still in beta and will be free of charge for a reasonable usage.

If you don’t want to use the background removal feature, add this line to your theme’s
functions.php file, or use a plugin like [Code Snippets](https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/):

    ```
    `add_filter( 'emr/feature/background', '__return_false' );```
    ```

A similar filter, for the remote notification system is:

    ```
    `add_filter( 'emr/feature/remote_notice', '__return_false' );```
    ```

To shorten the wait time before redirecting to the media editing screen, use the
following filter and specify the wait time in seconds (0 means that redirection 
is immediate, but may cause problems in certain configurations):

    ```
    `add_filter('emr/success/timeout', function () { return 3; });```
    ```

#### Visa tiden för filändringen

There is a shortcode that takes the file modification date and displays it in a 
post or on a page. The code is:
 [file_modified id=XX format=XXXX] where the ”id”
is required and the ”format” is optional and defaults to your current WordPress 
settings for date and time format.

So `[file_modified id=870]` would show the last time the file with ID 870 was updated
on your site. To get the ID for a file, check the URL when editing a file in the
media library (see screenshot #4)

If you want more control over the format in which the time is shown, you can use
the format option. So `[file_modified id=870 format=Y-m-d]` would show the date 
the file was modified but not the time. The format string uses [the standard PHP date() formatting tags](http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php).

## Vanliga frågor

### Where do I report security bugs found in this plugin?

Please report security bugs found in the source code of the Enable Media Replace
plugin through the [Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program](https://patchstack.com/database/vdp/enable-media-replace).
The Patchstack team will assist you with verification, CVE assignment, and notify
the developers of this plugin.= What does this plugin actually do? =

Detta tillägg gör det enkelt att uppdatera/ersätta filer som har laddats upp till
WordPress mediebibliotek.

### Hur fungerar det?

A new option will be available in the Edit Media view, called ”Replace Media”. This
is where you can upload a new file to replace the old one.

### Jag ersatte en fil, men den ändrades inte!

Det finns två huvudorsaker till att detta skulle hända.

Kontrollera först att du inte visar en cachelagrad version av filen, speciellt om
du ersatte en bild. Tryck på ”Uppdatera” i din webbläsare för att vara säker.

Second, if the file really looks unchanged, make sure WordPress has write permissions
to the files in your uploads folder. If you have ever moved your WP installation(
maybe when you moved it to a new server), the permissions on your uploaded files
are commonly reset so that WordPress no longer has permissions to change the files.
If you don’t know how to do this, contact your web server operator.

### 󠀁[useful for batch replacing via media library on latest wordpress](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sadly-not-that-useful-when-editing-images-in-a-post/)󠁿

might be useful for bulk changing images within the media library, but not of any
use when trying to change an image via the post editor.. a nice replace option would
be wonderful.. but as it is not much use for myself on single posts – using latest
version of wordpress which i think is 6.8.3 Edited.. damn.. just found out that 
the images i was trying to change were set for some reason set as ’custom urls’ 
despite been in the media library (maybe due to using the auto insert plugin from
content from another website?), if set directly to the media library then a replace
option in latest wordpress automatically appears anyway.. my ERROR. changed the 
star rating to 5/5 for just batch editing in the media library cuz latest wordpress
if an image is properly set to the media library offers a replace option anyway..

The plugin has a major integration issue with Bricks Builder, that will potentially
break pages.This issue has been acknowledged but is still not fixed after more than
a year.For more information check:…/support/topic/replace-svg-files/…/support/topic/

Finding this plugin was basically the impetus for switching our support center to
a Wordpress setup. We have to update screenshots all the time in multiple locations,
so this plugin means we just update the one image from the media library. HUGE time
saver and it makes it really easy 🙂

#### 2.6

 * New and improved validation of uploaded files, now using WP’s own functions for
   checking file type and extension. Thanks again to my old friend Ulf ”Årsta” Härnhammar
   for keeping us all on our toes! 🙂 This should also hopefully fix the problems
   people have been having with their installations claiming that perfectly good
   PDF files are not allowed file types.

#### 2.5.2

 * The ”more reliable way” of determining MIME types turned out to be less reliable.
   Go figure. There seems to be no perfect way of performing a reliable check for
   MIME-types on an uploaded file that is also truly portable. I have now made checks
   for the availability of mime_content_type() before using it, using the old method
   as a fall-back. It is far from beautiful, so if anybody has a better way of doing
   it, please contact me!

#### 2.5.1

 * Bug fix – there is now a more reliable way of determining file type on your upload
   so you can upload PDF files without seeing that pesky ”File type does not meet
   security guidelines” message.

   them out!
 * New method for uploading avoids going around WP, for greater security.

   with Windows systems, better security, optimized loading, and much more.
 * Lagt till nederländsk översättning av Ben ter Stal.
