Two question :

1: Is there a way where I can upload a bunch of pictures, and later change the name of the uploader from me to someone else? Like if I uploaded a picture that wasn't mine, and after the "owner" of that picture has signed up, I change the credite from me to him.

2. I have a bunch of "old" pictures, that I'd like to date back to when they were created. Like if I uploaded a picture today, but wanted to set a "fake" uploaddate to like "january 1st 2001" ? This way, if I sorted the pictures after "date" this (faked) old picture would read as the oldest.

One shall be the number of questions thou shalt ask and the number of the questions shall be one !

You can modify the database directly.

Code: [Select]

UPDATE cpg_pictures SET `owner_id` = '7' ,`owner_name` = 'user name' WHERE pid = 123
Where 123 is the numberof the pic to change ownership thereof.

Thank you, kind sir!

I take it that that was the answere for question number 1 ... I'll post the second question in another thread, then (here: http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=33817.0) !

Again - thanks!!!

edit: Hmmmm - seems like I'm not clever enough to actually find that database ... would that be accessible via an ftp-client? Or do I have to go through the mySQl-stuff???

edit: I figured it out !!
answer: Yes, I have to go through the mySQL "system"...
