Hey,
I don't quiet get how the categories and albums creation is working.
Do I have to upload ALL the pictures from ALL the albums and categories to the same folder or can i create differetn folders and subfolders?
right now I have albums/userpics and that is the only place to where i can upload pictures so it is seen by the software. I don't want to upload 40,000 images in one folder, cause in this case its just one big mess especially when uploading new stuff. When I try to create different folders or change path to albums in the configuration i get this
Warning: opendir(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 22001 is not allowed to access albums/a/ owned by uid 504 in /home/virtual/site3/fst/var/www/html/mb/gallery/searchnew.php on line 203
Warning: opendir(albums/a/): failed to open dir: Success in /home/virtual/site3/fst/var/www/html/mb/gallery/searchnew.php on line 203

Warning: closedir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /home/virtual/site3/fst/var/www/html/mb/gallery/searchnew.php on line 225
The software looks good, but I am just not sure how it should work with thousands and thousands of images I need it to work with. What I would like to do is this....
Category 1
Album 1, Album 2, Album 3 ....and so on
Category 2
Album 1, Album 2, Album 3 ....and so on
I need to have separate folder for each category and separate subfolder for each album in this or that category... is this possible to do with the software or how does it work?
Please responde. Thank you :)
if you use the upload link from within coppermine (http-upload), the script will create the location within albumns/userpics and you're not meant to touch the files manually after adding them.
If you're using ftp to upload, you should create any folder structure within albums, but leave "userpics" alone, since this is (as I said) the place where the http uploads go. If you encounter errors during batch-add, make sure you have CHMODed albums and all sub folders correctly: 755 or 777 (as pointed out in the readme that comes with coppermine), depending on your server setup.
If you experience problems with safe_mode, try switching silly_safe_mode on (again: the documentation/readme!).
