Re: Media plugin - usage questions

ad 1)
You have to use the path constant MEDIA to identify where the files
are stored and then combine it with the information for the requested
file - directory and filename - adding it all together to get the
filename with path information.
Read the configuration for the Media plugin here:
https://github.com/davidpersson/media/blob/1.3/config/core.php

ad 2)
PUT, is that not about REST then?

Enjoy,
John
