Topic: intermediate pictures on pre-uploaded albums? (Read 15978 times)

I have a coppermine gallery with some 49 albums and 2499 pictures.

Now I am wondering if I can set intermediate pictures retroactively?

(In other words, all the photos that have been uploaded until now do not have intermediate pictures, is there a way to do it even after having uploaded pictures?)

Yes, enabled intermedaite pics and then use admin tools to build them.

Thank you, which admin tools should I use to build them?

kegobeer · « **Reply #3 on:** January 30, 2005, 05:55:00 pm »

The Admin Tools. It's a link on your admin menu bar.

I can't seem to find Admin Tools? (Yes I am the administrator

)

I wasn't sure if 1.2 had that link. You'll have to upload to 1.3.2 to use those tools.

Would upgrading require a lot of work with a gallery of 50 albums and 2500 pics ?

Whats coppermine version do you have? What theme are you using?

Have you tried using the classic theme?

This pic is from classic.

--day late and dollar short-- nevermind this post. I didn't realize it was already in the 1.2 support board.

No. It's very easy. Download the zip 1.3.2 from this site and read the documentation (/docs/index.htm). Just a matter of backing up your db and original files, then uploading all the new files according to the instructions and executing a script.

Okay thanks, ill try to upgrade now, ill post back once that's done. Thanks to all.

@donnoman - Same here. Maybe I should've read the board name before I posted the first time.

clubmed · « **Reply #11 on:** January 30, 2005, 07:43:37 pm »

Okay I have upgraded to the latest version of coppermine.

Now after I choose a specific size for my intermediate pictures, what do I do in Admin Tools?

clubmed · « **Reply #12 on:** January 30, 2005, 07:48:43 pm »

Damn why is my config.php page so short all of a sudden? I can't see the 'apply changes' button of whatever it's called and the page will only load up until the Thumbnail View box

Tranz · « **Reply #13 on:** January 30, 2005, 07:52:11 pm »

Did you upload the config.php file when you upgraded? I'm wondering if you confused it with include/config.inc.php, which you do not need to upload.

clubmed · « **Reply #14 on:** January 30, 2005, 08:00:06 pm »

Yes I mixed it up, I didn't copy the new config.php file that's in the root folder, I did that now and all seems to be well.

There's only one problem, I forgot to backup include/config.inc.php is that going to be a big problem?

Tranz · « **Reply #15 on:** January 30, 2005, 08:07:04 pm »

If all is well, then you're okay. If there were an issue with config.inc.php file, you couldn't view your gallery.

clubmed · « **Reply #16 on:** January 30, 2005, 08:11:45 pm »

all seems to be well, its working.

I am also rebuilind the albums with intermediate pictures. anyway to apply changes to the whole gallery instead of album by album?

kegobeer · « **Reply #17 on:** January 30, 2005, 08:29:52 pm »

Not that I'm aware of.

Tranz · « **Reply #18 on:** January 30, 2005, 08:34:33 pm »

With 2499 pictures, there will probably be issues trying to process them. You could encounter timeouts, or your webhost's wrath.

clubmed · « **Reply #19 on:** January 30, 2005, 08:36:41 pm »

Okay too bad.

One more question:

I am currently rebuilding each album to add the intermediate pictures that I did not have before. From time to time, I get this error:

Warning: chmod(): Operation not permitted in /home/***/public_html/***/include/picmgmt.inc.php on line 224

Either way it's all working, just wondering about that occiasional error while rebuilding?
