Upload the thumbnail files to same category id folder in "thumbnails". Thumbnails must have the same name as the depending image.

You can use this script to remove the prefix fro the thumbnails files:

Ok, step by step:

You have created a new category, for example the ID is 1.

Now upload your images via FTP to:

data/media/1/image1.jpg
data/media/1/image2.jpg
etc.

and your thumbnails to:

data/thumbnails/1/tn_image1.jpg
data/thumbnails/1/tn_image2.jpg
etc.

Then open the script rename_thumb.php and change
Code: [Select]
$thumb_prefix = "thumb_";
to
Code: [Select]
$thumb_prefix = "tn_";
Upload this script to "data/thumbnails/1" and run it. It will remove the prefix tn_ from all your thumbnail files.

Go now to your Control Panel and add the images with Check new images to the database.

Maybe you should chmod the files with 666.
