Slideshow Issues : duplicates on different posts, but different files

I'm currently having an issue where uploading another slideshow on a different post is replacing existing slides upon publishing the site. When editing, I can see that each slideshow is different (and my files are named differently so no error there) and is the intended one to be uploaded with that post, but upon publishing the site, the most recent slideshow upload would replace the other photos as well.

Both slides are my "entretien finale" slides when I've uploaded two different sets of slides for each post.

It even changed the slideshow on an older slide I had on a different page.

Why is uploading another slideshow affecting / replacing all my other slideshows too ?

Thank you.

Thanks for posting, @ElmikNach. Do the images in the new slideshow share the same name as images in your old slideshow? We retain the filename of an image after uploading, so if you upload images that have the same name as images you already uploading, then you'll see unexpected results.

No problem! We didn't do it this way in the past, so for people that have had sites for a while it might be a surprise the first time it happens.
