File destination given not considered while saving file

Thanks for the report @sajiniantony - the uploading functionality of this module is actually provided by DropzoneJS, so I'm going to move this issue to that queue.

If by field settings you mean settings on the file field on the entity, that's by design with Entity Browser. It's confusing I agree, but Entity Browser is still in development and this will be addressed sooner or later.

Now to solve your problem: to set a different upload location, you need to set this on the entity browser side. For now you need to change the Entity Browser's yml file manually, but the config form for the widget is being implemented - see #2671914: Implement EB configuration UI.

As stated above #2671914 needs to get to have a UI to configure this.

If you want to change this now, you need to update entity_browser.browser.nameofthebrowser.yml The yml structure should look like:

  81437af9-e9ef-494d-9662-c859c9739f53:
    settings:
      media_entity_bundle: photo
      upload_location: 'public://' <-- you need to change this
      dropzone_description: 'Drop files here to upload'
      extensions: 'jpg jpeg gif png'
      max_filesize: 2M
    uuid: 81437af9-e9ef-494d-9662-c859c9739f53
    weight: 0
    label: 'Upload photos'
    id: dropzonejs_media_entity

This is ugly, but until the mentioned ticket gets review this is the only way to do it.

Closing as fixed. Reopen if needed.
