Is it possible to change the UPDATES folder path?

Permalink
I just converted an existing site to C5. The client uses a folder named UPDATES already, so their customers can download software patches via FTP. I would like to change the folder that C5 uses to download updates. Is this possible?

Thanks!

It looks like this is defined in base_pre.php, "DIRNAME_UPDATES" - you should be able to put this in your site.php:

define('DIRNAME_UPDATES', 'c5updates');


Then make a new folder called c5updates and you're good to go. I haven't tested it but this should work for you. I'm not sure how to test it except maybe making a dummy install with an old version of c5 then run the update script.
