I'm making a new version of my site with laravel 5.4 and want to keep the same links than my old site has.
My old site has links images like this: domain.com/uploaded/cat.jpg
In laravel, its necesary to create a symbolic link to show the stored images but it saved them with a default folder named storage", like this: domain.com/storage/cat.jpg
How can i change the default name to "uploaded" or whatever?
I tried to change url inside the file \config\filesystems.php with this:
Before
'public' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app/public'),
'url' => env('APP_URL').'/storage',
'visibility' => 'public',
],
After
'public' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => storage_path('app/public'),
'url' => env('APP_URL').'/uploaded',
'visibility' => 'public',
],
and my controller
$request->file('image')->storeAs('public', 'example.jpg');
