How can I change the default folder used (portal/0/) to insert pictures in the Text/HTML Editor?

With some modules I run into the problem of letting users use the text/HTML editor to create listings (such as the forum module) and they have access to all my files in the "Portal/0/" folder.

Can I customize a duplicate version of the text/editor module for users so that it does not include certain elements, such as the picture folder access. Or would it be better to allow for picture uploads to a specific folder I create beforehand? I see that this module allows for links, but it asks for a URL and the upload attachment buttons do not lead to a folder with all your files.

Please help. Thank you in advance.

You can restrict access to folders by role using the File Manager to adjust access privileges.

Thank you. I watched the video on File Manager Use and it answered all my questions.

Hello,

I would love to know how you got the answer for this:
"With some modules I run into the problem of letting users use the text/HTML editor to create listings (such as the forum module) and they have access to all my files in the "Portal/0/" folder. "

I am having the same issue. Is there anyway to not show the Folder Structure of our website for anyone who has the ability to post on our forum using HTML Editor? I can restrict the files, but I would love to hide our folder structure as well.

Thanks
Daryl
