Hello,
I'm considering using Rackspace's Cloud files service to store my website's images and then use their CDN service to deliver these to my users.
I was wondering how I would go about doing this with CMS Builder... is it just a case of changing the image location paths under General Settings in the admin control panel?
Upload Directory
Upload Folder URL
Any help/advice would be great.
Thank you,
Greg

Hey Greg,
CMS Builder expects a local folder to upload to. Just giving it a remote server path wont work.
If Rackspace supports this - you could mount your cloud drive on your web servers file system. Then CMS Builder will be able to use it as a local drive.
Hope that helps,
Robin
