Media link problem ?

Post by Slushgood » Wed Aug 17, 2022 6:08 am

Hello,
Is there a problem with setting file and image media links in Joomla 4? Regardless of the setting, it systematically points to the joomla "images" folder. For my component even by putting a directory= it does not work. Thank you for your lights

OK, There seems to be a problem with Joomla's mediaField. I fixed the problem by creating my own FavmediaField. The problem is that I have a message:

I just found the solution:
In the created field
directory = "local-media:/" in front of the folder path
if this one is in picture
"local-images:/"
