how to change groupfolders in admininterface

i succesfully changed my groupfolders to ../someplace/images/ but in the admin it still shows the standard "Groupfolder1" and "Groupfolder2". where do i tell the admin interface where the new destination of the images can be found?


ALMOST SOLVED:
found an adminconfig.ini file in /admin!

but the settings here don't seem to work:

mainheadtext = ImageVue Admin
hidepassword = true
serverextension = php
extensions = jpg,JPG,jpeg,JPEG
chmodreq = 777
backgroundimage = background.jpg
guestlogininfo = true
foldersorting = nd
imagesorting = na
globalpath = false
contentfolder = ../../images/stories/imagevue/
bgcol = FFFFFF
dropcol = 000000,10
folder = false
presetpass = false
passwordreminder = true

I think perhaps there may be an issue with your setting:
Code
contentfolder = ../../images/stories/imagevue/
There are often security implications when Imagevue is attempting to read and work with directories that are not within the main imagevue root folder(called "upload" by default). Most likely this is the reason why it does not work as you should expect.

Perhaps you can give me a link to your gallery and admin, and also password to your admin (private message)?

Try this:

http://club-rouge.de/gallery/admin/?con ... /imagevue/

Keep in mind, "contentfolder" is relative to the Imagevue root folder.

Hi. How can we configure a path absolute to the webroot instead of relative ?

Thanks for your help

Why do you need to use an absolute path when you can always use a relative path? In some cases, the gallery is already compromised by having your "contentfolder" outside of the root imagevue folder.
