I don't mean to sound ingorant, but I'm having troubles configuring g2.
I don't quite understand the part where I have to create a directory.
$gallery->setconfig('data.gallery.base', '')
I have tried several different things, but still nothing. :roll:
Any info would be appreciated!

And no, I'm not a moron :eek:
Just new to PHP!

Just put a directory in there where Gallery can store its data. You will need to create it and chmod it 0777...

I got that part.
My question is, where do I actually create the directory?
I guess in the same dir and the Main.php?
Do I need the full path when putting the directory into the config file?
Or just the dir name?

HEre is the the error I keep getting :

Warning: Smarty error: problem creating directory "/%%-17/%%-1740578653" in /home/willreyn/public_html/gallery/lib/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1043

I'm guessing that this caused because it can't find the dir.

Create the directory anywhere that you have write access. Put the entire path to the directory into your config file. It'll look like this:

$gallery->setconfig('data.gallery.base', '/path/to/your/directory');

Then open gallery/setup/setup.php in your web browser and it'll tell you if you did it properly.
