Replacing media in My site files without needing to change links to it

Question:
I’m just wondering if I’m missing something or would like to find out what other people are doing in this situation.

Say I have an image or PDF file that is shown or linked to from a few different places in my Wix Studio website. Say, in the footer (in the case of a PDF file), on a page, in a product and in a blog post.

After a while I realise I need to update the image or PDF file because there is more info, (ie a new version or updated image). The filename is EXACTLY the same as the current file in my site files.

Is there a way to just upload the new file and replace the old one so all the links and instances where that file is shown will now reference the new version. After some research it looks like I have to find every place it’s referenced and then change the link, image manually - is that correct?

Any help on this would be handy.
Thanks

You’re correct - currently it requires finding and updating these links manually. But I also think this is a good idea, and would find it useful on a few sites :zany_face:
