Why Doesn't My UserFilesPath Setting Work Properly?

From the file /httpdocs/admin/fckeditor/editor/filemanager/upload/php/config.php:

// Set if the file type must be considere in the target path.
// Ex: /userfiles/image/ or /userfiles/file/
$Config['UseFileType'] = false ;

// Path to uploaded files relative to the document root.
$Config['UserFilesPath'] = '/images/hh/' ;

But when I upload a file, it goes into /images/hh/image (it adds the "image" subdirectory onto the end of what I had set). I need to fix that, but I haven't been able to figure out how. Thanks for any help! I'm totally new here. :oops:

Please consider this tip as a "hack", because if you do this, you'll have to remember apply it to next versions of FCKeditor if you upgrade it.
Open editor\filemanager\upload\upload.php and
replace:

if ( $Config['UseFileType'] )
   $sServerDir .= strtolower($sType) . '/' ;

with:

if ( $Config['UseFileType'] )
   $sServerDir .= $Config['UseFileType'] . '/' ;

and

replace:

if ( $Config['UseFileType'] )
         $sFileUrl = $Config["UserFilesPath"] . strtolower($sType) . '/' . $sFileName ;
      else
         $sFileUrl = $Config["UserFilesPath"] . $sFileName ;

with

if ( $Config['UseFileType'] )
         $sFileUrl = $Config["UserFilesPath"] . $Config['UseFileType'] . '/' . $sFileName ;
      else
         $sFileUrl = $Config["UserFilesPath"] . $sFileName ;

After that you're able to set

$Config['UseFileType'] = 'images/hh' ;

Remember to set $Config['UserFilesPath'] to path to userfiles directory, not to subdirectory inside it e.g

//Path to uploaded files relative to the document root.
$Config['UserFilesPath'] = '/userfiles/' ;

Re: Why Doesn't My UserFilesPath Setting Work Properly?

I need to create folders and upload images in the root of the domain.

Please tell me how I must modify the files:

editor/filemanager/upload/php/upload.php

and

fckeditor/editor/filemanager/upload/php/config.php

Thanks in advance.
