When dealing with files I usually set a define (or a config) for the file
location in a shared spot between all the code (add public_html if you want
to make the files public):
define('FILE_LOCATION', '/home/rtsadven');
// If you want the files to be public accessed
// define(FILE_LOCATION, ' /home/rtsadven/public');
Then use it in the code:
$directory = FILE_LOCATION . '/media/images/
This will enable you to change the location in the event you want to move
to CDN or a different hard drive easily.
