I have created several post types with the Types plugin and most of of them have a filed for an attached file. Is there a way to upload these files into specific subfolders of the Uploads folder? The reason is I want to protect these folders from public access and keep them available only the roles assigned to have access to this type of content.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

There is no such native feature available to upload the files in specific subfolders of the uploads folder.

If you try to google it you will be able to locate few articles or posts - for example:

=> https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/193089/change-upload-directory-on-custom-plugin-page

But I do not recommend it to use as it will cause possible side effects when you will try to display the file fields on the frontend using Toolset plugins.

All I can offer you is to encourage you to file a new feature request and our Devs will evaluate it:
