Genestoy Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 I just noticed that there are no new "monthly" folders being added to the uploads folder since upgrading to 4.1.9? Where are the posts/files/images stored now? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve00 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 As far as can see I still have them for 4.2.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genestoy Posted August 16, 2017 Author Share Posted August 16, 2017 Now I see what they did Used to be - monthly_06_2016 Now - monthly_2017_06 So they were not in order with all the older folders from before the upgrade Thanks for the reply steve00!

Sorry but what ... they have been in the year - month for years Quote monthly_2015_12 ADDED: Perhaps depends on how server setup as live site is as you state and my test forum is as I state .... weird ?

Genestoy Posted August 16, 2017 Author Share Posted August 16, 2017 I upgraded from 3.1.4 and that is the way it was then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyF Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 I seem to recall "monthly" folders were added at 2.2. (or 2.3) stage, possibly a fraction earlier. Prior to that it used to just have them all in one directory without splitting them into monthly directories... /end of the history lesson.

Genestoy Posted August 16, 2017 Author Share Posted August 16, 2017 Yep, you are right Andy and I still have files in the uploads folder (not in their own monthly folders) from the "early days" of IPS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not experimented with manually moving them over on 4x. I do recall trying this on 3x at some point and it did not update them, mainly what were 'avatars' at the time.
