This module adds a setting to file fields to support selecting the method handling when a file already exists with the same name as the uploaded file. The options are:

  • Rename the file (this is the default value and the default behaviour of file fields)
  • Replace the existing file
  • Prevent the file from being uploaded (will display an error message)

The main reason for creating this module was to support replacing existing files instead of renaming, hence the name.
