Is there a way to automatically remove the torrent file after it has been added to the client?

Hi,

Please have a look to the plugin section, e.g. viewtopic.php?t=47243 may help

Thanks for the reply.
As far as I see, the plugins offer controlling the torrents themselves. I am asking for a way to remove/delete the ".torrent" file after it has been added to the client. As of now, I add a torrent to Deluge and then I need to go to the folder where to .torrent file ist saved, and delete it manually. I remember Transmission (and I think also uTorrent) does that out of the box. Surely there must be a way also in Deluge?

There are some settings in preferences>download but I think it will not help, the goal is to keep/manage the copy of the .torrent file. Quite the opposite so. I'm not using it anymore but have your tried the autoadd plugin? It should be present by default and automaticaly add .torrent files present in a folder to Deluge. I'm no more sure but I think it delete them afterward.

Thanks again. It seems like autoadd removes the .torrent file after it has been added. However, I am not looking for auoadding functionality. Seems like I am stuck to manually remove the .torrent files.

Has this ever made it into the client?
deleting *.torrent files manually after they've been added to deluge is kind of dumb.
