Update of categories

Post by PM9 »

Hi All,
I strugle with update of categories and images in my phoca gallery.

I have created folder structure in Media manager and uploaded all pictures. Then generated thumbnails and with use of multiple add created cutegories and images in phoca galery. Until now all work as expected and I can see gallery on my webpage. The complication comes when I create one new additional folder in Medial manager folder structure and wants to update the phoca galery. I follow the same approach for phoca gellery update (image, save) but do not see pictures on the web. The new category is created (incl thumbnails of new pictures) but no new categories and pictures are shown on the web page. If I delete all images and categories in phoca gallery and run the structure from zero, new categories and images are in place. How do you update your folder structure (more pictures and folders)?
Thanks

Hi,
How do you update your folder structure (more pictures and folders)?
I created the same Folder structure in /images/phocagallery/
as the category structure I have in: backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Categories

When I want to add new images, I will create a new folder in /images/phocagallery/ first, and then I will load up the new images via FTP to this folder. Then I will create a new category in: backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Categories and loadup (create Thumbnails) the new images to this category with help pf Multiple Add in: backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Images

Kind regards,
Benno

Thanks for answer.
I finally found what was wrong in my way of update. I marked (in phoca/image) the base folder structure I wanted upload/update and choose category where to import.
But this created parrallel category structure. The way it works correctly is just to mark in Phoca/image the base folder (the base folder created/updated in Media Manager) and to click on Save. this creates all new folders and upload new pictures.
