Storing uploaded files

    I have a question regarding the storing of uploaded files.

    I know where my jobs-dir is and i have access to it. I also tried creating a new folder at the same level and changing the directory in the ‘job-postings.php’ file and it works.

    if( ! defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) ) exit; // Exit if accessed directly

    define(‘JOBPOSTINGSVERSION’, ‘2.3.6’);
    define(‘JOBPOSTINGSPATH’, plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ));
    define(‘JOBPOSTINGSURL’, plugin_dir_url(__FILE__));
    define(‘JOBPOSTINGSFILESDIR’, ABSPATH . ‘../jobscv/’); (changed the jobs-dir to jobscv)

    I also know about the following:
    On some servers it is not possible to use “Secure Location” outside of the site’s root folder, because of the limitet permissions.

    My questions now are:
    1. Where can i see if i have permission or not?

    I actually want the files to be redirected to an e-mail address or a folder somewhere in the cloud, because now my client has to get to the backend to find the uploaded files.

    2. So i wonder if it’s possible to change something in one of the files like the one above to make the uploaded files go to some defined url (if i want it to go to a folder somewhere in the cloud) and if not to an e-mail address

    hi @dk231

    Plugin is already sending attachemnt with email.
    And you can switch back to WP Media file location, this way you will have a files accessible online.

    Hi @blueglassinteractive

    Thank you for your reply!

    As i understood well: if i set the default email in the global options to the email (for example) [email protected], and there is a job entry i have to be able to see that in the mailbox of [email protected]? Because I tried doing it to see if i get any mail in the mailbox, but i received nothing so perhaps i am doing something wrong?

    Hi @dk231

    Try installing and configuring smtp plugin. Perhaps your site is not sending emails at all.
    You could also try some email logging plugin, to see if emails get sent and if there is some errors sending them.
