Title: changin categories of pics from phpmyadmin
Post by: arindra on July 13, 2005, 02:01:59 AM

hi
i have a big gallery with lots of pics in unsorted categories . Will it hurt if i change the pics cats from inside phpmyadmin ? or maybe using some mysql code ? instead of doing it one by one fromthe admin panel ? is it ok to do so ?

yes, it will hurt ;)

because if u change filename/category of an image only in the database and not move the file itself to the new category, then u'll end up with 404 image (error missing image) in the new category.

We have a mod for batch copy/move images from one category to enother.
