store data in a different directory

[tristan-k]

Is it possible to store the plaintext data in a different directory? I want to use the data folder of my OwnCloud Instance (e.g. /owncloud/data/username/files/dir-name/) . I noticed the "data_dir" line in the config.php. How do I have to change that line to store the data in a different directory with a sub-directory?

You could try changing the taskpaper_folder attribute in the conf/config.ini file. I've never tried using a folder outside of the server root, but it might work. If not a hard-link works fine. That's what I normally do.
