Using pics not uploaded to own server?
« on: June 15, 2008, 03:56:06 pm »

Hey, I've just set up Coppermine on my site, but I didn't realise I'd then have to upload every photo I want in my gallery to my own webspace. My photos are all already on photobucket and I just don't have enough webspace to hold them all on my site. Is there any way to use the coppermine gallery with photos which are on photobucket? So coppermine would still link to them and show them, but they wouldn't physically have to be uploaded into your own FTP?

Thanks.

this question was often asked before. Answer is No (they are some mod's who allows this but they are unsupported) search the board

Yes that feature is not supported.
If you want you can take a look at this:
http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,22564.msg104072.html#msg104072

But I don't understand where there is a problem how much webspace do you would net for all your files?

There ar so many webspaces which gives you hunderest of Gigabytes ;)

Hmmm, thanks - I read through that and it didn't make much sense to me so I guess I'll keep trying.

I only have 500MB webspace - that was the maximum my host offered. I'll be switching to a different host when this expires as I realise it's rubbish, but I didn't know that at the time - it's only a little site.

Thanks for your help.
