Upload folder problem

Hi,

my upload folder is in the parent directory of my project.
I dont want to put it in the project directory, because when I install updates
I copy a zip to the server, delete the origin project and unzip .

album (phpmaker project)
files

I show pics in my listpage from an image field.
In the “upload folder” field of the image field I tried

../files/
$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] .'/files/'

but dont work.

In webftp I see: /home/www/stichalbum/ at my webhoster
but on my local webserver its different.
I didnt tried yet a fix path, because it should run local and at the webhoster.

What can I do ?

Upload paths are relative the project folder, your attempts won’t work. You may use the advanced setting Local file system root (relative to project folder).

Hi,

the change in the advanced settings did the job.

Thanks a lot.
