Hello,

I recently added some 600 photos to my gallery :D and was very happy about the possibility to point the gallery to a directory on the server where the script grabs all image files. Now the thing is, I have organized these 600 images locally (on my harddisk) in subfolders.
I uploaded the main folder with the 18 subfolders to the server and then pointed the gallery to one subfolder after the one. I am wondering if it would be possible to point the gallery to the folder and gallery automagically also checks the subfolders and puts the images in corresponding folders in the albums directory. That would be faster than having to start the grabbing-process 18 times :) and yes, I am lazy. :lol:

Thanks for the great software!

It's on my todo list already. Maybe a month or two before I'll get around to it... who knows. If anyone'd like to jump the gun, be my guest. But it'll be on its way eventually.

great! :D Maybe I should wait then a little bit with transfering some other 300 photos from my "hand-made" gallery :)

There is a perl script available that might help you. The url is in my .sig
