Change location of Photos folder

Did anyone manage to change the location of the Photos folder using the “Photos settings” dialog? (see below)

(Running Nextcloud 30.0.6 TrueNAS app on TrueNAS 24.10.2.)

Hi

+1 , I wanted to do it yesterday, on a new account and I have the same screen as you, and I tried everything without result, probably a bug because I have already managed to modify it in the past with other Nextcloud accounts…
