I've just installed the uMarketingSuite (1.20.4) plugin in a fresh Umbraco v11 project and have noticed that the installation creates an Assets folder in the root of the web project:
I'm just wondering if the installation has gone wrong in some way, my understanding is that plugin files should live in the App_Plugins folder?
We store our frontend scss, js resources in a folder named assets at the project root and would like to be able to keep the two separate to avoid confusion.
Is it possible for us to rename this folder or move it and still have the plugin work?
This is the default behaviour. We create a folder /uMarketingSuite within the newly created or existing Assets folder so it should not interfere with your existing assets.
In this folder we store the needed client side javascripts for the additional functionalities like collecting client side events, google analytics bridge and blocker detection.

Next to that the uMarketingSuite Cockpit files are stored there.
All the needed files for the package to function correctly in the Umbraco backoffice are stored in the App_Plugins folder.
Does this explanation help?
