Title: [Solved]: Batch add file - Seems not working?
Post by: frabouil on July 10, 2004, 06:23:53 PM
Hi all,

First, I've read all topics but my problem seems not to be yet treated...

Under coppermine 1.2.1 everything was working fine... ;)
I upgraded to the 1.3 version and everything seems to work fine, except  the "Batch add file"  :(
I got this message:
"This function allows you to add a batch of file that your have uploaded to your server by FTP.

Select the directory where you have uploaded your files"

But I can not select any directory!!!

Then to upload files I use the upload buttom. And this work but not the "Batch add file" buttom...

if there's no directory to select, you probably ftp-uploaded to the userpics subfolder. Well, you mustn't. You never were meant to, not even in cpg1.2.1
FTP-upload to a dir you create inside the albums dir and everything should work fine. Recommended reading: http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/manual.php#batch_add_pics (especially the bit marked as "important").

Sorry Gaugau for my stupid question!
I was creating and uploading files directly in userpics  ::) instead of albums folder... sorry for that!

Ops...I had the same problem and reading this thread I solved it...One question to Gau...
I had my whole gallery under userpics folder. ::) :P I did so with the older version, because after the first image uploaded, I used the same directory for the other pics, uploaded with FTP and processed with "batch add file" function. Now reading the manual I feel a little stupid... Is this a problem or I can keep them there?

Thank you for your work

keep them there (and pray that no problems will arise from the fact that you initially uploaded to the wrong folder ;)). Make sure to have all future ftp-uploads (from now on) not go into the userpics folder, but into a folder structure within "albums" you are to create. It's advisable (although not necessary) to set up your folder structure similarly to your category/albums structure.

The more I use coppermine, the more I read this messageboard and the more I find you are a great team!!
Just had the same problem (yeah, all my folders are under userpics directory) and found the solution just with a silly "click" on the search feature... great!
Thanks!
