Adding extra images to existing albums

Hi,

I followed the excellent advice given in this forum and have mastered uploading zip files, setting up file structures, importing all images to new categories and generating thumbnails.

How can I easily and quickly upload and add additional images in the back end to the existing categories without duplicating the existing images during the 'Import new images' stage, and creating unwanted duplicate and wrongly named new categories such as "Introduction - Plants - Plants" when the images should have gone into the existing "Introduction - Plants" category?

Thanks,
Andy

Thank you Christine,

I have followed your instructions, however, during the next stage when the new images are imported into the category, it re-imports the original images as well, so I end up with a lot of duplications. What do you recommend?

Thanks,

Andy

Hi Andy,

Unfortunately, I don't know why you have duplicates. Maybe it belongs to point 1 or point 3 > correct category selected?

Kind regards
Christine
