File Library: "Delete" button

[itsjennkaye]

Doesn't work. Also, what happens if I delete an asset that is associated with a scene? Need to have some visible error on both the Events page and Events detail page.

Sorry -- when I try to delete one of my assets out of the File Library, I click the "delete" button and then get an error that says: "Cannot POST /files//delete"

Secondarily asking about when I CAN successfully delete an asset, what happens to the scenes that are currently using that asset? The asset will then go missing.

The problem here is that the route is malformed. the slug is not being added to each form in the submission area. without the file slug the item cannot be referenced, additionally there is no // extension in our router so the request fails.

Ok cool so you know what the problem is.

Any thoughts on my other question? Or table for now.

Files and assets are completely different in our architecture. We will have to surface better deleting strategies when we remove files and thus update assets. if you delete a file the asset would just fail to load providing a null. We'll need to surface that on the events/single.ejs
