hello, i know this question may have been asked before but i cannot think of the terminology to do a search. I have a file server that uses its own file structure with the os and piwingo running on much smaller, seperate drives. is there a way that I can link that file structure into piwigo, so that i am not transfering hundreds of gigabytes of photos? I have tried using a symlink in the galleries an uploads folder but that does not seem to work?
Hi
It must, many people use symlinks with Piwigo (there is no reason it doesn't work, it's a system thing softwares don't see it)
Make sure you don't reverse the link and that the server has read access

ok, so it was my fault. the links werent being created by the command line. ln -s source_file myfile creates a usable symlink to the photos. thank you
