Posted a response earlier but it appears to have been deleted, not sure why.
Thanks much for the suggestion Adam, however, I am still having the same issue. I have made the changes below but when I try and delete the media nothing happens. The error I am getting via the developer tools is below: [email protected]:[email protected]:8152 [email protected]:12n.event.dispatch@ jquery.js:[email protected]:4095 The first issue above (k.cors.a.crossDomain.send) seems to be erroring out on the below line in the jquery.js file: try { // Do send the request (this may raise an exception) xhr.send( options.hasContent && options.data || null ); Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks.
