Shoot I just noticed that members photos are uploaded in the main media folder in wordpress at least from the admin section. Not really liking this as it is mixed in with all the media used for posts / pages etc.
Why was it created like this and how can I get folders for each individual user?
You are talking about Media library inside WordPress backend, right? All the media uploaded through rtMedia are also attachments and that’s why they are showing inside media library. In future we might add new tab inside WordPress backend media library which will show rtMedia uploads only.
