XF 2.3 Directory of media images

What/where are the directions for the images of the albums stored in the file system?

Are you asking the directory (folder) where XFMG stores the uploaded image files?

Or do you mean you need instructions on how to set up categories and albums for your Xenforo's media gallery?

Where are uploaded images stored

That's a great question, and I assume you're asking because the answer doesn't seem obvious (e.g. the developer docs are missing a chart of the storage structure). I might be able to figure this out once I get to my laptop and can SSH into my server. But, assuming they're stored as attachments, it seems like they may be in in data/internal_data/... according to this post. Sorry for not being able to give a more definitive answer so far.

Update: I was able to log in and look around on my server and it's confusing. I see some files in \internal_data\xfmg\original but not the thousand I'd expect to see. I downloaded some sample files from data\attachments and I definitely see the thumbnail of an image I uploaded to the media gallery but I haven't found the full size yet.
