Is it possible to modify the upload directory so files are uploaded to a folder in a parent directory? The parent directory is still within the same domain name, but outside the forum.

The ability to change the upload folder was removed many years ago as found that it caused allot of issues, particularly if the folder was out side of the forum folder such as a folder in the parent directory.
