Title: How to upload a BUNCH of files at a time?
Post by: danieljradcliffe on December 29, 2005, 06:35:11 am
I have been uploading and making my gallery by logging in and uploading one file at a time. I have a bunch of zip files with thousands of pictures in them, I don't want to upload all of those one at a time. Is there a way I can just make an album and then upload them in a big heap? I've been looking around and I can't find anything to help.  Hope someone can help. Thanks. :)

Make a new folder there and upload files into it.

If you want photos, and not zips, to be displayed, you need to extract them. If your FTP app will do it on the server, you can do it that way. Otherwise, extract the zip before uploading.
