Is there an easy way to change the filrdir_1 path? I have a lot of entries that have images pointing a location that I want to change… I was the https://ellislab.com/asset/images/team-photo/ path to link to a different folder. Thanks in advance for any help.

You should be able to simply change the location in your File Upload Preferences.

That’s what I would have thought too, but no luck…
All the images are still linking to the old (wrong) place…

What version and build of EE are you using? Any extensions?

Manually clear the cache by deleting everything in system/cache/ including index.html

Hi, Frank. Were you experiencing the same issue?

Yea, I changed the dir in file upload preferences this was v1.7. After that the images were still linking to the old dir, I cleared cache from the admin and that did nothing so then I deleted cache manually and it worked (all images started using the new dir).
