How upload attachment (photo's) to joomla images folder

gasoline 12 Feb, 2021
I read the forum and tried everything but can't manage to upload to a folder in Joomla. I want to upload to joomlasite /images/uploads/foldername

Or photo's are uploaded to /components/com_chronoforms6/chronoforms/uploads or there is no upload.

I'm trying for hours now and can't get it to work. Maybe anyone has a suggestion. See the images attached for how I have set it up now.


When I open the form I get:

Array
(
[option] => com_chronoforms6
[chronoform] => wandelfotos
[434665ff3160d2328919be6ad0111b37] => 217a4f5e3bdbd4633500a6f55bd9eff2
[Itemid] =>
)

Array
(
[upload6] => Array
(
[path] => /home/zz************/domains/************/.nl/public_html/images/uploads/wandelvierdaagse/
[fotos] => Array
(
[extensions] => Array
(
[0] => jpg
[1] => jpeg
[2] => png
)

[info] => File is not present.
)

[var] => Array
(
)

)

)

And this is the results page:
Array
(
[option] => com_chronoforms6
[chronoform] => wandelfotos
[event] => submit
[akkoord_plaatsingsvoorwaarden] => Akkoord
[naam] => Marc
[text5] => marc@************.nl
[routenaam] => Het stiekeme paadje
[afstand] => 4x10km
[fotos] => Array
(
[0] => hb-telecaster.jpg
)

[button3] =>
[434665ff3160d2328919be6ad0111b37] => 217a4f5e3bdbd4633500a6f55bd9eff2
[Itemid] =>
)

Added images because that did not work the first time.

why not use v7 and set the upload path in the global form settings ? even file fields can have a special upload path!

Ok, I will try that. But I didn't because I have more forms and can't convert/import them in V7. Only V5 forms, and I'm using V6

even in v6 the upload path should work fine, as long as the path exists it should work!

I could get the path working in V7, not in V6. In V6 I only managed to upload to default directory of Chrono. I tried al kind of options. It only uploaded to to the default path or did not upload at all. The folder/path exists. But I'v stopped to use V6 for this now. V7 works better.
