CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi there,

I have installed a module. After that I wanted to upload a translation file via FTP. But I don't have the right to do so.
I think this is because I am not the owner of that file. Maybe the owner is the database user?!
Now I don't have the rights to upload a file in any directory CMSMS created. I don't even have the rights to delete the whole CMS. Those directories I didn't create will always remain.

Is there a way to cheat the File-Manager-Module to browse the CMS Folders?

Thank you very much for your help.

It seemed that I just have to change two lines in config.php.
After commenting the "upload"-folder the file-manager startet one level deeper and I was able to upload and delete whatever liked.

Is this dangerous in any way? I can imagine that the file-manager is the only use for those variables.

Maybe its a good feature for future versions to give admin-users the permission to start one level deeper?!

hmm interesting. It is as dangerous as your other users coming in and 'tidying up'

There are no other users.
I wouldn't do that if ther were any

My Question was if some other scripts also needed those variables and if something won't work correct after changing them.

not that I am aware of, but you should grep for that term in the sourcetree and see for yourself.
