Use 4images/data/ directory of another installation

[jackald]

I want to use "data/media"  on two sites so that i dont have to upload all imagase to second websites because it will use the same as first one.
Both web pages are on the same server but diffrent users.

i tried to setup secend website constants.php

// Data paths
define('MEDIA_DIR', 'home/onpl24/public_html/tapety/data/media');
define('THUMB_DIR', 'home/onpl24/public_html/tapety/data/thumbnails');
define('MEDIA_TEMP_DIR', 'home/onpl24/public_html/tapety/data/tmp_media');
define('THUMB_TEMP_DIR', 'home/onpl24/public_html/tapety/data/tmp_thumbnails');
define('DATABASE_DIR', 'data/database');
define('TEMPLATE_DIR', 'templates');


But it doesn't work what ai did wrong is it possible to use the same "data/media" on both websites?

Hi,

no, it is not working.
A lot of functions need:

Code: [Select]

$media_dir
in a link. So the path is worng.

I thing only one way:

Gallery_1         => data/Gallery_2/data/media
- templates
- data
    - Gallery_2    => data/media
    - templates
    - data
        - media
        - thumbnails
        - tmp_media
        - tmp_thumbnails

Use subdomains for deeper Url...
Test it ...

But you must use only one db for this way

No need for use different media and thumb. 4images is use remote image for upload.

Not good. I have got gallery which contains about 7GB images. And i want to create second one on different domain in another language.  So there is now way to use the same data directory ?

[jackald]

ok now it works when i enter www.domain.com/wallpapers  but it wont work when i go to www.wallpapers.domain.com it wont show any images is there anyway to fix that?


Maybe there is a way to create shortcut on server. For example i would create one in new installation directory and then change  in constans.php to point to it ?
