Please add duplicate file finder function to wp file download. As the document count increases it will become increasingly difficult to determine if the database already has the document. A function that flags the upload as a duplicate before adding is highly desired. Please add ASAP!

Hi,

What do you mean exactly? in the admin part?
We've planned to add a search engine in the admin part to find easily your existing files. Detect duplicate files based on the file name would be an option.

This duplicate file feature could be placed in the admin section as an option; specifically, during file upload. In my case, I have a living repository of pdf documents that will grow overtime; some of the categories could exceed 1000 documents. It would be very difficult and time consuming to have to look at thousands of document titles manually to make sure that I am not uploading a duplicate document. So, having a function that compares the title being uploaded against all the titles contained in the database and then flagging the admin with a warning message indicating that "you are about to upload a duplicate filename" would be extremely helpful for those of us who have a large database files.
