change storage directory

[gikass]

Hello, I have been using this component since Joomla 1.5, I love it, when you upload images to Joomla they go to image/phocagallery/, I want to change the root directory, do you know how to do it, or what file does this work, thank you.

Hi, to change the paths, you should customize this file:

administrator/components/com_phocagallery/libraries/phocagallery/path/path.php

Thank you Jan for your time, I modify lines 26 and 27

$instance->image_abs = JPATH_ROOT . '/fotos/phocagallery/';
$instance->image_rel = 'fotos/phocagallery/';

and it does not generate the images in the front and bankend of Joomla, I will have to modify something else

Hi, I din't do such customization yet, so hard to say, but I think, you both variables should do the trick. Did you newly add the images to system?

It works, but most likely it will be overwritten with some update.
If possible, please add this option to Phoca Gallery settings.
