Bug #17631
closed
fileadmin/img fileadmin/data is confusing and should be configurable
0%
Description
It's difficult to know that those directorys are from tt_products, and I never saw a other extension which creates similar directories. And those directories are sometimes alread in use for other purposes, especially fileadmin/img.
Perhaps you should move those directories to fileadmin/tt_products/data or isn't it even better to put them in uploads/tx_ttproducts/?
In the end it would be best if you have them configurable, so that every user/company can decide where they should be.

The uploads/tx_ttproducts/ is IMHO only for the TYPO3 backend of tt_products. But the entries in the data folder may be deleted.
You can make a recommendation for this on the ECT list.

This is a feature request for TYPO3:
ext_emconf.php should be made configurable before the installation will be done:
'createDirs' => 'uploads/tx_ttproducts/datasheet,uploads/tx_ttproducts/rte,fileadmin/data/bill,fileadmin/data/delivery,fileadmin/img',This cannot be changed in tt_products because of upwards compatibility. The users would be bothered to move the already exting files to another place.

you could do a fallback solution, if the old directory exists it uses it otherwise it uses the new ones

Closing this as it is an extension issue, not a core issue. Please file a separate issue if you want to e.g. change the extension setup process.
