Title: Help! I stuffed up
Post by: Ulysses on November 30, 2003, 12:08:31 PM
G'day,

Great script. Installed in minutes. But I stuffed up with categories and need assistance please.

Set up a categort and an album, both with the same name (really dubya I know). Then deleted the category instead of the album! But wait, it gets worse ...

As there was no "x" button to delete the album next to it, I figured I'd need to delete the record directly from MySQL (dumber and dubya!).

Did that. Got an error message in "Categories" - which happily went away when I created a new category.

Thought that fixed my stupidity, but when I clicked on "My Gallery" as a User, I got :-

Critical error

A category has a non-existing parent, runs the category manager to correct the problem.

Can I fix it, or do I need to start from scratch?

Feel free to swear at me! I have  :oops:

Decided to dump the database and start again.

Thankfully it's a well compiled and documented script that's simple to install.
