Title: Changing size on images
Post by: arnestad on December 04, 2007, 09:49:28 PM
Hi.
I want to alter the size on both my intermediate and fullsize images.
For the intermediates I know I can adjust the size in my configuration, however the adjustment only applies to the new files uploaded after this alteration. How about the fullsize images then? Is there any way I can upload new fullsize images and replacing the current ones or does that only make trouble in the databases?

Hope someone understands what I want to do and have the time to help me out.

Thanks.

Thomas

There are options available in admin tools to do both these things.

Is there a manual or something available somewhere to? I'm scared of doing things wrong, even though I of course take backups before I go this.

The manual comes with the coppermine package and is available online as well (see link at the top of this page). We call it "documentation".

Hi again.
I did as told, uploaded my new fullsize files and my FTP program told me it would overwrite the old files which was what I intented to do.

I then changed the thumbnail/intermediate/full size in the config menu, then headed into admin tools and marked off "Update thumbs and/or resized photos" and chose "both thumbnails and resized photos".

Some of the files seem to have been updated, however many of the files are not updated and some are even out of size.

Does someone know how to solve this or tell me what I've done wrong on the way here.

Thanks in advance.
