Change upload folder - Post ID 278415

I know there is no way from within WFB to specify what folder to upload a file to so where in the code would I change this?

I looked in the 'config.cls.php' file and see that the 'CC_FB_STORAGE_FOLDER' is set to '/storage/'. I can add my own folder within the same folder as the 'storage' folder and change the code and it works. However, I want the folder to be 2 levels up. How would I change this to be the correct path?

Line 18 of the config.cls.php
define( 'CC_FB_STORAGE_FOLDER', '../../storage/' ); // where all data is stored
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Hi Eric,
I tried that but i'm getting an error:

Warning: [ err 2/line 464/formpage.cls.php] mkdir(): No such file or directory

I have a folder called 'storage' two levels up but i get this error.

Line zero?

I've looked at line 464 but I'm not sure what is wrong.

says:
if( ! is_dir( $dest ) && !mkdir( $dest, 0755 ) )
{
$this->errors[] = array("err" => _T('Could not create file upload directory "%s"', $dest ) );
return;
}


Either there is something somewhere else that needs changed or it doesn't like to write to a folder on a different level...so to speak. Something to do with write permissions maybe? If it is, i'm not familiar with php code but does that mean it must be 0755 or it should not be 0755? The permissions on that folder are set to 755

Yes, make sure you have the permissions set on the new directory. I'll do some testing if I get a chance today.

Hey Eric,

All the permissions are set to 755. I'm not sure why it's not working.
