Can I rename some album subdirectories?

Hi All,

When I first started with Coppermine I just had a few different albums and I din't care about naming them.
Now each new album I make a directory /albums/2006-08-20-Name so they are easy to sort out and manage.
I can easily change the name of an old directory like /albums/Name-20-5 to the new format, but Is there a way I can get Coppermine to know that it should pick up the jpgs from the new named directory?
Thanks for listening to me.

You'd need to fix the paths that are stored in the database. If you search the board you should be able to find a sample query for this that I have posted before.

Thanks Nibler.
After playing a bit with PHPMyAdmin I found a way I could manually change the directory name for a single picture.
But even that I'm afraid of doing. For me it's like performing open heart surgery with a sword.
Maybe later when I learn something more about PHP like queries I'll fix it since it's really not a big issue, more a minor beauty detail.
At least I know where to look now.
Problem solved.
