When I upgraded to 7.1, all my feature settings were lost, including the path to a previously working Attachments directory.
Now I cannot re-figure out how to enter the correct path. I can ftp into the attachments directory like this: aerobats.com/aerobats.com/directory_name, but no combination seems to please the "click to test directory" button in the Control Panel.
The directory permissions are set to 777.
I saw a post suggesting that "home" should be part of the path, but don't see why.
