Title: How to delete files in Coppermine which are already deleted on FTP?
Post by: Riccardo83 on November 04, 2008, 07:19:07 PM
I see no way deleting files that have been deleted on my FTP? It says directory not writeable, ofc because its not there. Wouldnt it be great to make it work that u can delete those entries wholes files are physically missing?

Secondly, If I wanna move some files around on my FTP to have a easier structure since I have thousands of albums is there a easy way to chnage the path via Coppermine?

If you have batch-added the files you have FTP-uploaded, you mustn't delete them by FTP, but using Coppermine's UI, as suggested in the docs. What's the actual question?

I wish I had registered early and read this... sorry I copied a website over to a new domain and needed to delete all the coppermine images - I used FTP to do this (the files were originally batch added). I'm gettin g similar errors as the dir are obviously not there. What should I do?

Easiest way is to recreate the directories.
