Uploads

Hi,

I have recently downloaded and installed Gallery3 for a relation who would like somewhere to display a selection of his photographs that he has taken over the last 40 years and would like to say thanks for the work as it seems to suit perfectly,

The only real problem that I have had with the site comes when trying to upload batches of photographs of about a 100 or so. The server add option seems to work OK, but I have found it a little unreliable, and clunky. After about 70 photos it sometimes causes the browser to hang. Also when using server add I seem to have to click on every individual photo to select it for upload, is there a way to select the who folder?

I have tried using the browser upload option but I tend to get a lot of upload errors using this method.

Most of the photos are about 1 - 1.5MB

For me to upload it's not really an issue, I just work out where it's gone wrong and start again but for the less computer savvy it's a bit of a problem.

My question is, can anyone recommend an easier and more reliable way to upload to Gallery3?

Many Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply, after reading your post I thought I'd give the browser upload another try. Unfortunately I was still receiving 'IO Error #2038' on nearly every file.

I investigated the error and it's a flash error and unrelated to Gallery3, I switched from using Firefox to using IE and now uploads work perfectly, not sure why but it was suggested in another forum that it could be something to do with the way IE treats urls. Anyway serves me right for not investigating the problem straight away.

Now I'm very happy! As for the version I'm using, after using the upgrader it says version 38, but the dashboard states RC2.
