Title: how do i re-add pictures that i had in a previous version of cpg?
Post by: interconnect on April 03, 2008, 01:55:33 am
hi, does anyone know how i would go about re-adding albums that i used to have installed in a prior coppermine version?  specfically, i had i think version 1.3 installed on a different webhosting account.  for a number of reasons i had to create a new account and was not able to import my mysql backup. so, i installed the latest version and want to re-add my pictures... they are still on my webserver and still have all the thumbnails and whatnot.  so my question is how do i go about getting them back in coppermine?  if i create all the albums and do a batch add will coppermine create the thumbnails for thumbnails?  do i delete all the thumbnails and let it recreate them again?

thanks.

It won't create thumbnails if you already have thumbnails, so long as you use the same prefix (eg, thumb_) you did before.
