Title: Adding a lot of images in a lot of albums
Post by: TedAppleberry on January 31, 2003, 04:39:54 AM
Is there an easy way to do this? I currently have about 150 albums and 3500 photos. I am having to create the album, figure out what 4images named the folder, copy the files in to the folder then run a check for files from the control panel. Is there a faster way? I am concerned I may lose my mind if I have to go through all of these!  8O

Use batch import mod:

it will import any numbers of categories/images
and name your new categories same as folders' names ;)

This is awesome, one quick question, let's say I already have a category called sports and I import sports\football Will it simply add football to the sports folder?
Thanks!  :P

Actually it does - awesome!

PS - take out any " ' "s in your names of images.

I had "Ashley's Tongue.jpg" and it creates a weird mysql error. Renamed to "Ashlys Tongue.jpg" works fine! Hope that helps!
