Such a change would not be possible without coursing all sorts of problems. The public directory needs to be a sub domain of teh forum.

there is.....
in setup_option_inc.asp :
***********************
'Upload folder path, DO NOT CHANGE as it may break your forums upload tools
Dim strUploadFilePath strUploadFilePath = "uploads" 'This is the upload folder ***********************
and in RTE_FILE_BROWSER there is :
************************
'If file or image uploads are enabled then see if the user has an upload folder already
If blnAttachments = True OR blnImageUpload = True Then 'Check the user has an upload folder, if they have uploaded annything
blnUploadFolderExsist = userUploadFolder(strUploadFilePath) 'If an upload folder doesn't exsist for the user then they just browse the public folder If blnUploadFolderExsist = False Then strUploadFilePath = strUploadOriginalFilePath & "/public" 'Else if image uploads are not enabled just display the empty upload folder to the user Else strUploadFilePath = strUploadOriginalFilePath & "/public"
End If *********************** i've try to change strUploadFilePath by setup_option_inc.asp with mysite.com but in the page RTE_POPUP_ADV_IMAGE.asp there is the path Path: mysite.com/1
why when i change the strUploadFilePath the scipt put the number 1 after mysite and not put /public ??

This change carries a big warning in capitals not to change it:-
You should change it back to the default upload folder or you WILL have problems. Also, it is not possible to use a web address to upload files to, if you could upload files to another site using 'myside.com' it would make things very easy for hacker to deface websites. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

This is not an easy task. Are you sure you can overcome the problems that will rise? Here is some guidelines: 1. You need to upload files using the PHYSICAL path - OR - You will have to enable parent path for the site on the server WWF uses Server.MapPath method to upload files. This will not come in handy when you are uploading files with parent path disabled. Lets assume that you have enabled parent paths. If WWF's default upload directory is http://[www.domain.com]/forum/uploads and you want to upload files to http://[www.domain.com]/public Change this line
into
CAUTION! This method might result in crashing your forum! There might some other scripts, those used to format posts needed to be edited ..and truely I do not know about the WW RTE. It might also crash.

Disallowed Path Characters /forum/RTE_file_browser.asp, line 199 The '..' characters are not allowed in the Path parameter for the MapPath method.
why? |

Changing it so that everyone uploads to the same folder would require allot of recoding as the forum creates a folder for each user which also contains an XML file with the users details in it. If you did recode the forum to allow everyone to upload to the same folder it would be a security issues as any of your users could delete the uploads of other users. I would suggest leaving the upload 'as is' ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

Because Parent Paths are DISABLED on your server.
So do I. But he was saying that he couldn't use that for some reason and tried to do an alternative ------------- http://board.ebizbd.net/"> Tips, mods and skins for WWF v9.x

From what I read it looks like he wants everyone to upload images to the same public folder and thats why he wants to make the modifications.

The problem with this is now anyone will be able to access and delete the images others have uploaded.

IT ISN'T TRUE because in the blank box i can only select the img file and add into the prewiew box in the right!
I 've no way to delete any file...
i can do this only via FTP but only ME can enter via FTP into my domain!
