    Hi there..

    When I try to create a link in my Document content and I press the "Browse" button the browser window opens.

    But in the browser window I can only access the "Files" folder and not any of the other folders... how can I make the browser show the other folders in the drop down menu?

      In the manager under tools/configuration/ Interface & Features tab

      Resource path:
      Resource URL:

      You can set it to whatever folder you want, I suggest you copy what’s in there in case you break anything.


        I made my first site with modx

        You also might want to check the path in the User tab of your manager user account.

            I’ve been trying to do the same but i cannot find information. With the information you gave we can set up a new folder for the assets but we must create again the 4 subfolder as seen in the manager instructions
            NOTE: The resource directory must contain the subfolders images, files, flash and media in order for the resource browser to function correctly.
            If, for example, i want to make a link to an image from tinymce, the browser will never open in "images" folder. It will be in "files" folder and we won’t have the option to choose any of the other folders.
            Is there any way to access to different folders from the browser, and not to only one?
            Thanks
