Version: 3.5.6 Reporter: qbrands —
This is an archived bug report. If you are experiencing a similar issue, upgrade to the latest release and if that does not solve the problem, submit a new bug report
In the ExpressionEngine documentation here, it states that:
“When submitted, all allowed file types in the directory will be checked against the file records in the database. If there is no record in the database, one will be added.”
While this was certainly true in versions of ExpressionEngine prior to 3.0, I have not been able to get that to work correctly beyond 2.11. One used to be able to bulk upload files through FTP and synchronize them within the control panel, but that does not seem to be the case anymore. I have tested it in multiple environments on different installs so I do not believe this to be an isolated issue, thus why I’ve submitted the bug.
ExpressionEngine implements Markdown Extra and BBCode. Please see the Markdown Extra docs and the BBCode Wikipedia article for a full reference.

{
return str_rot13($str);
}
