    The readme says this in the update instructions.

    I don’t see anywhere in the readme that when you do an update, the attachments folder will be deleted.
    This is the first time this has every happened. Every other time I’ve done an update, the attachments folder was still there when it was done. This was an automatic update from 14.9.12 to 14.9.13.

    See “Installation” section, subsection “Upgrading the plugin”:

    If you want to delete the 14.6.0.5 version by deleting directory “cforms” and you have any cforms-uploaded files, make sure you do not delete your attachments directory, which is contained in the cforms directory by default.

    I do not know, why this did not happen before, the updating behaviour is dependent on WordPress, not the plugin.

    I did not delete 14.6.05 or the directory “cforms”…

    So, are you telling me that when i upgrade cforms2 in the future, I can expect the attachments dir in the cforms2 dir to be deleted? If so, it would be nice if the attachments folder could be located outside the cforms folder so this doesn’t happen.

    The default attachments directory is the wordpress upload directory.

    And yes, any changes in the cforms directory, including additional directories, will be deleted with every update.
