Knowledge BaseEntry Management → frm_upload_folder

The files uploaded through Formidable go to your wp-content/uploads/formidable folder. This may be different depending on where you have set your regular uploads to be stored. You can view the uploaded files in your WordPress Media Library, on the Formidable entries pages, or on any View you create. If you would like to further organize your uploads inside the “formidable” folder, you can do so with a little code added to a new plugin or your theme functions.php.

Usage

add_filter('frm_upload_folder', 'frm_custom_upload');

Parameters

  • $folder (string)

Reset to the default WordPress upload folder

If you are using a caching plugin setup with a CDN, it will work best if you leave the uploads in the regular uploads folder.

add_filter('frm_upload_folder', 'frm_custom_upload');
function frm_custom_upload($folder){
    $folder = '';
    return $folder;
}
