Title: Transfering
Post by: azra on January 02, 2008, 03:54:40 PM
If I have uploaded a picture how can I change the person who uploaded it? Because it will say "azra" underneath the thumbnail, but how can I change my username to someone else's username?

Well, it was you who uploaded it, so it's little surprise that it shows you name as uploader, don't you think? There is no tool built into the coppermine user interface to change the ownership of files uploaded. You'll have to use a third party tool like phpMyAdmin and directly manipulate coppermine's pictures table. Change the owner name and owner ID there. Be extremely carefull and make a backup before you pull a stunt like that - newbies can easily ruin their entire gallery; think of this as a matter of brain-surgery.
Not related to uploading, moving accordingly.

i know that its supposed to show my name under the picture because i uploaded it, but i was just wondering if there was a way to transfer it to another person. its ok. i dont think i am going to use phpmyadmin to do it.
