Switching from image field

That´s not the answer I was hoping for. :pinch:
So that would need an additonal script to move all the files into the new structure.
I will have to sort that out before I will become a doc subscriber.

Yes, you could also just cut and paste them manually. Again I don't recommend changing a fields type.

No. That would not work having 13000 users in the database. :woohoo:

Not much more to advise, if you have a program that can us regular expressions for moving files then it'd be no problem otherwise it'd be a nightmare moving all the files to the appropriate locations. The image field stores directly into images/comprofiler. The file field stores into images/comprofiler/plug_cbfilefield/USER_ID/.

I beleive the plugin creates the necessary folders on the fly? That means the USER_ID folders are getting created when a file is uploaded and not at the time the plugin is installed?
This means I need to do a script that creates the necessary structure and copy the files.
However I need to create them the same way the plugin does, to not to interfere with the plugin or open security holes.
So what I need to know is:
1. Owner and group under which plug_cbfilefield/ and USER_ID/ are created. (www-data?)
2. What CHMOD settings to use for plug_cbfilefield/ and USER_ID/
3. Does the plugin create index.html and .htaccess files in any of these folders?
4. Is USER_ID/ just the userid of the user, like 34 or 1001 or is there any special naming convention (leading zeros or anyhing) or is the correct naming like USER_1001?

Yes the filefield will create the folders on the fly when the user uploads a file.

Yes, you can get the user id directly from the file it self (userid_randomstring.extension).

1. Owner and group under which plug_cbfilefield/ and USER_ID/ are created. (www-data?)

Public read and write. Root user.

2. What CHMOD settings to use for plug_cbfilefield/ and USER_ID/

0755

3. Does the plugin create index.html and .htaccess files in any of these folders?

index.html, but not .htaccess.

4. Is USER_ID/ just the userid of the user, like 34 or 1001 or is there any special naming convention (leading zeros or anyhing) or is the correct naming like USER_1001?

The actual users ID as seen in _users table, _comprofiler table, etc... There's no special naming.
