Image upload problems

    Hey there,

    I run MODx 1.0.4 and I created a TV that allows me to upload images for document I have. Now I moved the site from my local XAMPP to a server and the image uploader (FCK) won’t work anymore. Instead of showing me the standard-directory for image uploads /assets/images/ it merely shows me / and I can’t navigate to any folder or upload any image.

    I think that has to do with the different directory structure of the server. So is there any place where I have to put the base url or base path to make the uploader work again?

      Yes. In the Manager, go to Tools->Configuration. In the Interface and Features tab, you’ll find a path with a button to update the path. Do the same for the File Manager tab.

        Hey sottwell,

        thank you very much. That solved the problem - or the greatest part of it. It is now possible to enter the assets/images/ folder and to upload files, again. The only problem that remains is that no thumbnails in the fck upload editor are displayed anymore.
