Pictures + normal_ + thumb_ => takes too muck disk space
« on: February 19, 2005, 12:03:15 pm »

Hello, I'm a new user of the Coppermine 1.3.2 script, so I'm sorry if my question seems to be a newbie question :-X

I see in one of my picture directory that CPG script had create pictures with the normal_ prefix ... the problem is that it takes a lot of disk space :-\\

My question is :
Is it possible to disable the normal_ pictures creation
OR
Is it possible to delete the pictures I uploaded (after the creation of the normal_ pictures). In this case I should edit any php files because when I have a look at my albums ... I see a javascript link on normal_ pictures that opens the pictures (those I uploaded).

Here are a screenshot of my ftp : (https://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fusers.cybernet.be%2Fptsalos%2Fftp.jpg&hash=8212004c44f0bbd1dc914c30c9bc398dd73c91ce)

Sorry for my bad english and thank you in advance.

In config.php under Files and thumbnails settings set "Create intermediate pictures" to No. This will stop creating the intermediate pictures (normal_*) that are displayed on displayimage.php. displayimage will then display the actual image.

Yes, if you have set "Create intermediate pictures" to No.

It's best to use the admin tools to do that.  We don't recommend using your ftp client to delete anything.
