indrekr Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Hi, I have a bunch of files on my apache server in a folder and i need to check with a php script if those files are referenced to on my website on the same domain, if they're not i'll just remove them. How can i do that? Note: They're not other php files, they're just some jpg, gif, pdf, xls files.

trq Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Do you really need to use php for this? Sound more like a job for grep. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237959-check-if-file-is-referenced-to/#findComment-1222740 Share on other sites More sharing options...
indrekr Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 I need to find them, move them to another folder. I also need to have a user interface, which shows what files have been moved from where and an option to move them back (in case something fails) - this is meant for the client so it has to be clean/understandable and php. Also, this grep script has to be a cron job. I'm confused about using grep and php together. I would need to write the old locations of the files somewhere. Guidelines?
