# How do you change the default cache path **URL:** https://discourse.roots.io/t/how-do-you-change-the-default-cache-path/25488 **Category:** sage **Tags:** acorn, sage10 **Created:** 2023-06-06T14:17:11Z **Posts:** 5 ## Post 1 by @JasonSalmon — 2023-06-06T14:17:12Z Hey I hope someone might be able to help. I’ve just updated acorn to v3 and prior to this i was using the following adding the following filter to functions.php to change the cache directory as the host I’m using doesn’t allow me to use wp-content. ``` add_filter('acorn/paths.storage', function ($path) { return '/tmp/sage-cache/'; }); ``` It looks as though this filter has changed/removed and I was wondering what is the best way now to change the cache path? Many thanks Jason --- ## Post 2 by @thunderdw — 2023-06-06T14:40:51Z If the filter isn’t running early enough it might not work. You can set the `ACORN_STORAGE_PATH` constant instead of using the filter. --- ## Post 3 by @JasonSalmon — 2023-06-06T16:24:52Z Thanks for the reply. Should the filter still work? Its just that in acorn v2 in BootloaderTest.php ``` $this->filter('acorn/paths.storage', fn () => temp('storage')); ``` And in acorn v3 i can’t find that or similar. If it should and its a case of not running earlier enough where should i put it so that it does? If i was to use the constant instead where would the best place to put it within the theme? I really appreciate your help. --- ## Post 4 by @strarsis — 2023-06-06T16:31:46Z The `acorn` `3.x` specific cache configuration can be found here, IMHO: > --- ## Post 5 by @thunderdw — 2023-06-06T18:03:10Z If you’re using Bedrock, you can define `ACORN_STORAGE_PATH` in your `config/application.php`. If you’re not using Bedrock, you can define it in your `wp-config.php` file.
