How to Change
- To change the locations, first suspend sync plugin in Tonido Server.
- If you have been already synching files in the default location, make sure to copy that folder to the new location.
- Then replace the DEFAULT string with the full path to that folder in the syncserverconfig.xml file. For example, if your new sync folder location is D:\TonidoSync, replace the syncfolderlocation DEFAULT to D:\TonidoSync
- Then re-enable the Sync application.
- Test whether sync is happening correctly before removing the original location
