After uploading a post thumbnail, it shows up correctly on the backend, as well as on the form.

Problem: When clicking the delete button (the "X" icon when hovering the image inside the form), it's removed. But then I click save and after the page reloads, the thumbnail is still there (form and backend).

User is logged in and also admin.

FYI: The same happens to standard "image" meta fields as well! They're not deletable.

Hi Florian,

I've just updated both MB Frontend Submission (version 1.1.1) and Meta Box (on Github) to make the post thumbnail deletable. Can you please try them?

The old technique is removing files via ajax, which is not doable in the frontend. The new version of file field uses simple hidden input field to store value, and makes it deleteable. It also allows us to clone file field if needed.

Please just try and let me know the result.

Thanks,
Anh
