    Hey,

    I have installed WP 5.1 on my recent instance with a multisite. Everything is working properly, besides uploading media files. I have found out that it is using the old structure (>3.5) with blogs.dir and https://domain.com/files/2019/05/example.jpg URL structure. I had to find the proper htaccess line to make it work but isn’t new WP 3.5+ media structure completely different and more friendly in uploads folder?

    Why this happened? This is completely fresh installation.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    if you started with a previous multisite 3.5 it is normal to view the file folder https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/article/multisite-network-administration/

    advanced administration you can set your own path from your network upon modification. Network management -> sites -> modification -> settings.
    It is also possible to change the predetermined directory with or without a multi-site to support a media folder inside the wp-content folder without initial and final slashes.
    define('UPLOADS','wp-content/media');

    Organize my uploads into month- and year-based folders – Check this box if you wish to organize your uploads into folders based on the year and the month of the upload. As of 3.5, wp-content/uploads is the default path setting for the uploads folder

    With multisite I don’t find this setting on average but maybe you are luckier. For multisite in the advanced administration set a zero for use yearmonrh if you don’t want folders by year and month

    Settings Media Screen
