Alexandra | 16 comments I was trying to upload a profile photo (NOT a book cover) for this author (& supplied by his website designer). However I accidentally uploaded a totally different, unrelated, graphic file!
However, since it appears as the profile photo, I can't find any way of deleting it (and replacing it with the correct file).
Could someone please tell me how to fix this?

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments When you edit the author's profile, there should be a "delete/replace photo" link directly below the photo itself.

Alexandra | 16 comments No. There is the option to delete for the other photos, but NOT for the profile photo - and that is the one that I uploaded in error.

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments You mean on the edit page for the author you don't see this link?

Alexandra | 16 comments When I follow that, I can select one of 2 photos. If I select the photo that is Ok, I have a "delete" option to the right, if I select the profile photo (the one I need to delete) there is NO "delete" option.

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments 1) Are you sure that you're editing an author profile and not a user profile?

2) Are you sure that you're clicking on "delete/replace photo"?

3) Is this the author profile for Peter^^Yorke? Would you like someone else to delete the photo so you can upload the correct one?

Yes on all counts. Thanks!

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments It looks like it's fixed now. I've also added the standard disambig notes to the author profiles and moved over the ebook edition of Peter^^Yorke's book.
