I’ve got an AWS S3 bucket called (for example) static.example.com. It has source images in folders like /img/content/news/.

When I have CE Image fetching those remote images and caching their “made” versions back on the S3 server, their paths get kinda out of hand:

Ideally, I’d like the “made” images to be stored in S3 with a path that basically omits the “remote” stuff:

After all, while the “made” image may be remote to CE Image, it’s not remote relative to the source image’s location. ;) Is this possible?

FYI, I already have this in my config.php:

Hi Michael!

The long URLs are to prevent naming conflicts, and possibly overwriting images. However, you can use hide_relative_path=“yes” and the cache_dir= param to have more control over your S3 URLs.

Does that make sense?

Yeah, that does make sense, thanks. One more thing… I do have “$config[‘ce_image_bucket’] = ‘static.example.com’;” set in my config.php, but unless I specify the bucket=“___” parameter in the {exp:ce_image:*} tag, the “made” files aren’t getting saved to S3. Any idea what that’s about? I’d like it to save the “made” files to S3 by default…

EDIT: Is the config variable supposed to be “ce_image_aws_bucket” instead of “ce_image_bucket”? I see all the other AWS-related vars are “ce_image_aws_*”...

The corresponding config variable for the bucket= parameter is ‘ce_image_bucket’.

Are you running the latest version of CE Image?
