File upload
File storage backend
Set the backend used by #Friendica to store uploaded file data. Two storage backends are available with Friendica:
Database : Data is stored in a dedicated table in database (storage)
Filesystem : Data is stored as file on the filesystem.
Default value is 'Database (legacy)': it's the legacy way used to store data directly in database.
Existing data can be moved to the current active backend using the 'storage move' console command
If selected backend has configurable options, new fields are shown here.
Filesystem: Storage base path
The base path where Filesystem storage backend saves data.
For maximum security, this path should be outside the folder tree served by the web server: this way files can't be downloaded bypassing the privacy checks.
Default value is storage, that is the storage folder in Friendica code root folder.
Maximum Image Size
Maximum size in bytes of uploaded images. The default is set to 0, which means no limits.
