Question file sharing among different subscriptions

Basic Pleskian
Dear reader,

One of our customers is using a CMS within a certain subscription, let's call it cms-subscription. Other subscriptions configured in Plesk need to have access to files and directories of the cms-subscription.

We are running centos 7 with php vendor-os 5.4. The only way we are able to get this done is to enable prefork mode in apache webserver and then enable the apache mod_php handler. However, this way we can only use vendor-os php 5.4 and we need to use the outdated and insecure mod_php module.

We like to use php version 7 (fastcgi or FPM) on subscriptions but still with the possibility to access files and directories on this single cms-subscription. Settings like open_basedir doesn't seem to work, looks like a uid/gid issue.

So basically the question is if it is somehow possible to allow subscriptions to read/write to another subscription configured in plesk and using fastcgi or fpm?

Kind regards and thanks in advance for replies :)
 
All uploaded files are stored within a specific subscription's webspace. If you want to change the location where the uploaded files are stored, go to Tools & Settings > File Sharing Settings (in the General Settings group). You can both select a different subscription to host the shared files (keep in mind that you can only choose a subscription belonging to the administrator) and change the directories in which the files are stored.

To share the direct links to the uploaded files, open any subscription that belongs to the server administrator and go to the File Sharingsection. Select the checkboxes next to the files direct links to which you want to share, and click Email Link.
