Newbie. Can I point zenphoto at existing directory?

bendy

Sorry for dim-ness but i have quite a large photo collection on a drive in appropriately named folder trees. I would like to point ZenPhoto at the top and zenphoto handle the rest without renaming, copying, the files.

Does that make sense?

Is it possible?

Thanks

So where is the folder and where is Zenphoto? Both must be on the same server.

Yup on the same server and same disk

Is it in the same folder level than Zenphoto? Then either rename it to "albums" or change the default name of the "albums" folder within the config file withn /zp-data. You could also just copy the folders form that folder into the "albums" folder.

If on another lever (upper) you can also change the path there. In any case you can have only one "base" "albums" folder.

Sounds cool will give it a shot

Thanks
