Problems deleting files??

[farmerjeffe]

I was wondering if it was possible to remove the, for example, "video" i have on my gallery but keeping it on the server?

When i delete a file so it doesnt show up in the gallery i have to upload it again with my ftp client.

is there a way of just clearing files in the gallery but keeping them uploaded with my ftp?

thanks

well you could edit coppermines code to not actually delete the file...but this isn't recommended.

Or you could use phpmyadmin to delete the files entry in your db's coppermine tables...then it will be gone from coppermine and still be on the server.

One thought is to FTP to a non-Coppermine directory and then add the file using the URI/URL Uploads option.  Keep the original uploaded and then "upload" it into Coppermine anytime you want it.
