Hi Jacobi,

I used Christoph's fix, because it works as is.  And since future upgrades will require a new search and replace with either approach, maybe this is the most sensible solution.  At least until the future possibility of something similar being implemented into the bakery core.

But I didn't given up on your idea, because I think it would be a helpful addition.

Here's what I did to get it working.

added your code to the bottom of the bakery/config.php file:

Code Select Expand

// name of the bakery image folder in media
$sBakeryImgFolder = 'products';  //no leading/trailing slash or backslash!! A simple directory name only!! 

Renamed my media/bakery folder to media/products

Did a search (Find in Files) with Notepad++ for all instances of (31 total in 8 files):

Code Select Expand

MEDIA_DIRECTORY.'/bakery
and replaced with:

Code Select Expand

MEDIA_DIRECTORY.'/'.$sBakeryImgFolder.'

There are two files which require different replace formatting
'save_item.php' ~line 278

Code Select Expand

MEDIA_DIRECTORY.'/'.$sBakeryImgFolder.
notice the difference, there is no single quote between MEDIA_DIRECTORY.'/'.$sBakeryImgFolder.   <and>   $directory;

uninstall.php ~line 52

Code Select Expand

MEDIA_DIRECTORY.'/'.$sBakeryImgFolder
notice the difference, there is no trailing single quote or concatenation.

I took a look at the OneForAll module files and the calls are to the info.php for the module name '$mod_name' - to complete the media folder path.

There are two files which aren't displaying the images in bakery with the above settings in place, modify.php and view_overview.php

I added the following to those two files (near the top, although I do not know if placement matters), and it now everything seems to work:

Code Select Expand

// Get some default values
require_once(WB_PATH.'/modules/bakery/config.php');

But I do not know enough to know if this is all something that should be done, or what effect it might have.  But it was fun working it out.

I took off your trailing forwardslash, because that caused the search and replace to miss some files.

i test only some pages in the backend, but not all functions. 
Do you have a working solution on this basis now?

P.S.: i think, a good example must be be OneForAll-Module (if i remember correct, it have a way like this in the code)

Jacobi,

I tried your idea, because I like the thought of being able to change this folder more easily.  But the variable doesn't load in the admin (modify.php) or on the main products overview frontend page (maybe elsewhere, but I noticed these two for sure).

I took off your trailing forwardslash, because that caused the search and replace to miss some files.

replace:

Code Select Expand

MEDIA_DIRECTORY.'/bakery

with:

Code Select Expand

MEDIA_DIRECTORY.'/'.$sBakeryImgFolder.'

[Gast]

is it not a better solution, if you define the gallery folder name in the file modules/bakery/config.php maybe with

Code Select Expand

<?php for colored code only, dont copy that line
// name of the bakery picture folder in media
$sBakeryImgFolder = 'products';  //no leading/trailing slash or backslash!! A simple directory name only!!                         

and change

Code Select Expand

MEDIA_DIRECTORY.'/bakery/

to

Code Select Expand

MEDIA_DIRECTORY.'/'.$sBakeryImgFolder.'/

??

Thank you Christoph.

Hi sky writer

You can use your favorite IDE to perform a search / replace on all Bakery files. The path is hard coded about 33 times. Search ...

Code Select Expand

MEDIA_DIRECTORY.'/bakery

and replace by ...

Code Select Expand

MEDIA_DIRECTORY.'/products

The main drawback of changing hard coded directory names is that you will have to redo it each time you upgrade.

How difficult is it to change the media/bakery image folder to something else, like media/products?
