Hello,
I would like to know a method in order to have direct acces in frontend to images uploaded from backend. so that browser could cache these images for beter performance.
unfortunately when i do this in my front end views a get a 403 with a forbidden access.
any suggestion for a way of hacking it ?

thanks a lot.

I found the solution :
in the file administrator/components/com_yourcomp/classes/upload.php
in the line 106 :just comment the chmod line so that it will not change folder permission on the path where your files are.
if you have already upload files to your path before making this change.
just do a chmod 755 to your path

Nice! @mfr75!

I'd made a point of coming to this post today to point you at the upload class but you got there yourself first!

Thanks,

Gez

Good.

just comment the chmod line so that it will not change folder permission on the path where your files are.
if you have already upload files to your path before making this change.
just do a chmod 755 to your path

You can also do it propertly, not commenting, but changing the chmod for something else specific : ex : 755.
Define it in constants, or create a new constant.
