Drupal 6.11
imce-6.x-1.1

I have created directories from the IMCE admin
Every time I save settings on the module page these IMCE created directories are emptied
It is ONLY directories created by IMCE
It continues to happen even after after I uninstall IMCE, only on the IMCE directories

I am at a loss, I can not find reference in the Drupal, Apache or System logs?

Any ideas? Thanks

No automated way for this using IMCE.
That's strange.

Now on a third install, using the modules listed plus some.

When I save settings on the module page IMCE created directories are emptied. I assume it may one of the other modules but I can not find a clue as of yet.

Title: IMCE created file directory empties on "save configuration" on ./admin/build/modules » IMCE created file directory named 'css' empties on "save configuration" on ./admin/build/modules

Have had this happen, not only on my own servers, but also on a clients Verio Windows hosted install.

Specifically if you create a directory 'css' in your 'file' this directory will be emptied on "save configuration" on ./admin/build/modules . At least with the modules and configs I like to set up.

I was wrong earlier, it's not all IMCE created directories but only one named 'css'.

I don't know that it's IMCE, but could not figure anything else out.

So for now I will no longer use a directory 'css' as an IMCE directory.

css & js directories are used by drupal to store optimized css & js files. You shouldn't use them for your files.
