Attachment for Events was created by Roger

In each event you can send an attachment to the registrant. The tool tip tells me I have to put these documents into media/com_eventbooking. Is this folder supposed to be created automatically or do I have to do that on my own?
Could it be a problem since I'm using a German translation?

Thanks

Roger

Hi Roger

The folder will be created automatically during installation price. You can see it in ROOT_FOLFDER_OF_YOURSITE/media/com_eventbooking.

Hi Tuan

Thanks for the quick answer. I found the folder. Unfortunately it is not visible from the media menu in the backend of the page, so all the files you want to use as attachments have to be moved to the site by FTP.

Yes, you are correct. For now, you will need to use FTP to upload the files to that folder !

Hi Tuan,

Is it possible to quickly change this folder configuration so it just uses the /image folder instead? Then the admin's of the sites can upload files themselves. It seems impossible for them to use it otherwise unless I provide FTP access for them.

Thanks,

Sean.

Hi Sean

If you want to change the folder, you will need to edit the code alitle :

1. Open the file components/com_eventbooking/helper/helper.php

2. Find the code below :

Code:

$path = JPATH_ROOT.DS.'media'.DS.'com_eventbooking' ;

3. Change it to :

Code:

$path = JPATH_ROOT.DS.'images';

After that, it will list all files in images folder .

Regards,

Tuan

Actually, one thing, does it also need changing in the email utility section for sending the attachment too? I assume so...

Thanks.

Ah, correct. You will need to edit the code in sendMails function as well . Find the line of code below (in the same file) :

Code:

JPATH_ROOT.DS.'media'.DS.'com_eventbooking'.DS.$event->attachment

Change it to :

Code:

JPATH_ROOT.DS.'images'.DS.$event->attachment

After that, it will work well .
