Phoca Forum

Hello,
for a stupid mistake I lost everything from the MySQL database...

I have the backup of the folder images/PhocaGallery contains all the photos that were in my gallery and the related thumbnails.

Can I regenerate the categories from the content of that folder? Or, after I have recreated the categories manually, I can tell him to use the photos and thumbnails present in that directory?

Thanks
Andrea

Hi, if you saved all images in folder and subfolders according to their categories and subcategories, yes: go to imgages -> multiple add, select the top folder, select the top category and save. Phoca gallery then should automatically create subcategories from your subfolders (category name = folder name). See this documentation article for more information!
