Hi all,
So I’ve created my own config bootstrap and abstracted many of EE’s database stored settings, just so everything is more portable.
Question:
In EE admin > File Upload Preferences you can configure custom upload directories. Is it possible to set these up via a flat file too?

Any ideas?

I thought absolute paths were required…
Solution: You can use relative paths for your file upload preferences, you just have to be sure to have “../” at the beginning of the server path (ie: ../uploads/images/). The URL path doesn’t need it.

I’m glad you found the answer, Dom. Don’t hesitate to start a new thread if anything else comes up!
