    Hello,

    Using this plugin, how can I change the default upload folder for my images on my blog to a subdomain.
    My website is say “domain.com” and fully hosted subdomain is “multimedia.domain.com”. I want all images to be uploaded to “https://multimedia.domain.com/images” . I am new to WP and setting up blog so currently does not have any images. Please assist me as I tried different configurations and none worked ?? . I am on wordpress 4.2 and using Dreamhost. Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Kiran

    Ergo: open wp-config.php define the constant ‘UPLOADS’ to whatever basepath you need.

    I’ve been getting this question a lot lately. Starting to think I should just add the setting back in.

    First of all thanks for your reply, Ulfben. I am really new to WP. I tried but it didnt work and I am sure I did something wrong. In my example can you tell me the exact sytax of the UPLOADS constant.

    Should it be define(‘UPLOADS’, WP_CONTENT_DIR.’/multimedia.domain.com/images’); ??

    After that once plugin is activated what should be the value in the “Base uploads folder” path??

    My website is say “domain.com” and fully hosted subdomain is “multimedia.domain.com”. I want all images to be uploaded to “https://multimedia.domain.com/images” .

    Sorry, I can’t teach you to configure your system. Please check with the official wordpress documentation on how to use UPLOADS or ask someone in the general support forum.
