Seen some questions on how to use an alternative location for album folder outside installation folder.

Is there a simple "how to" on how to point Zen.. to a folder in the root of my site instead of inside Zenphoto folder?

You can rename it or even define it to be outside of the webroot by changing the zp-config.php file within /zp-data. Note that an external albums folders will break the included multimedia plugin Flowplayer3.

Thanks - that was easy.
