Because in my looking around for an answer, I couldn't find it. The search here is not so good. Type in , upgrade, upgrade from 1.4.x to 1.5.x or, any other number of thoughts one might have and they all came up blank. In reading the general post I didn't see a topic that I thought matched. I did however, run into a less than friendly posting from support people towards another poster that also fail to find what they need and had to ask. Geez!

While the develoers may have been living this program, and layout for years or months, some users are fresh out of the box with your controls. The FAQ could have a more easily layed out form or UI to provide these answer so you you could concentrate on the more difficult issues.

Thanks for your help.   I was able to find a thread that did lead me to the guide and it seems to be working fine now. However, it's early in the development of the gallery.

Cheers
Eric

For the benefit of others reading this thread.

The FAQ could have a more easily layed out form or UI to provide these answer so you you could concentrate on the more difficult issues.
The FAQ (http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/docs/faq.htm) were written for cpg1.4.x. If you're upgrading to cpg1.5.x, the cpg1.5.x upgrade docs (http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/upgrading.htm) apply. Feel free to contribute your improvements of any parts of Coppermine.
