Use batch add if you have a whole batch of files to add.

It says

"This function allows you to add a batch of file that your have uploaded to your server by FTP.

Select the directory where you have uploaded your files"

and no place to Select the directory

I just uploaded all my files to my website and now I when and clicked Batch add files and this is what it says

"This function allows you to add a batch of file that your have uploaded to your server by FTP.
Select the directory where you have uploaded your files"

but there is no place to Select the directory it just say that text and thats it. Is there a place I need to upload the files to?

Yes, you should create yourself a new folder in Coppermine's 'albums' folder and upload your files into subfolders of that. This is all explained in the documentation that comes with Coppermine.

did you actually read the documentation that comes with coppermine and that is available on this page as well (link at top of the page)? It says you must use an FTP app to upload your pics into a subfolder of your "albums" folder (not the "userpics" folder, but another one you have to create first).

merged the two nearly identical threads that xbritney started on the same thing. Alas, the two threads have been answered by different supporters at different times, so the replies may seem "out of sync" and doubled as well. You can use this thread as an example for what happens if you double-post: you cause double work for supporters, and others who might read this thread will find it confusing.

@xbritney: in the future, don't double-post and read the docs and the faq first. Then search the board (as your question has been asked many times over already). Only if you don't find an answer, you should post!
