Hello Geoff

Sorry, this feature does not exist. You can customize the code by yourself.

Best regards

Hi it's urgent that I update this to the correct media path. Where should I change the code for the media path?

May I urge you to make this a configuration setting ASAP. We never use /images/ for our asset path. Many peope do not. It makes no sense to put pdfs or docs in an images folder.

Please help ASAP,
Thanks. Geoff

It makes no sense to put pdfs or docs in an images folder.

It was built like that by Joomla developers in 2005, and still used also by Us. It's just name of folder, what is difference for person who visit site, he/she download a file without deep analize of folder's name. The pdf file is important and trusted domain. For example:
/images/asset/chapter2-10.pdf

If it's very important from your point of view, you need to hire PHP developer from your city for this kind customization. I heard gossip it's possible. Check also topics on: forum.joomla.org
