First of all, thanks for a great piece of software. I went through about 10 different packages until I found one that covered all the bases. Sorry if this question has been asked before, but I'd like to know if there is a way to get the Gallery to simply parse a directory and generate thumbnails from it. I do need and appreciate the Gallery as is right now, but uploading my files via FTP or shell gives me three benefits: - File names remain the same - Better organization - Could put separate galleries in separate dirs - dramatically streamlines uploading lots of pics (I have uploaded compressed files for the batch upload two and it's great). Is this feature already available? Or does anyone know of a way to do what I want (fairly easily)? The ability to specify a custom page to display for the Gallery would probably work too I guess. Thanks in advance! James |

Getting files into tiki is an ongoing piece of work. Not only for galleries but for plugins... plugins for flash and mpeg content require directories too but there is no access to the file system via tiki. Of course file uploade via ftp could be nice too when uploading dozens if not hundreds of photos. Your question is good, James, but I don't have a good answer for you. Come over to the irc:freenode/tikiwiki and maybe someone there can you give you a workaround. Denny James Herschel wrote: > First of all, thanks for a great piece of software.
