MAY HAVE FOUND SOURCE OF ISSUE
It appears that there may be a typo in code for a file upload field
have two views that have a file upload field and both frontend and backend views have the same issue in the viewname_form.php
the code is below
'actions' => array('remove', 'thumbs', 'delete', 'trash'),
'cid' => ->id
);
i do believe that it should be as below
'actions' => array('remove', 'thumbs', 'delete', 'trash'),
'cid' => id
);
