[resolved] How to synchronise subfolders?

Salutations

I use FTP to upload to my piwigo site.
So I simply upload the files to a folder in the gallleries folder, and then do local synchronisation, works fine.

Now I want to create subfolders, I have uploaded a subfolder, however when I go to synchronisation, nothing shows.

What am I missing here?

I also have another request, that may have a simpler answer, on the synchronisation page I see a list of errors from previous uploads, now fixed, how do I delete the errors?

As always I am grateful there are people in this world smarter than I.

Do you have "search in sub-albums" checked on the synchronization page?

What errors are you still seeing? Mine clear out after each synchronization.

Thanks for the reply.

I think I have sussed out the first issue, in that, if I want to have subfolders, I must create the folder first, sync that, then add photographs and sync those. At least that is how I got it to work.

The left over errors are for files that had incorrect file names. If I go to the sync page, they still show, despite having rectified the problem.

I sussed out the error message error too.
Turns out, I had not as I thought deleted the offending files, I had renamed them on my PC then uploaded, but did not delete the original error files.
Steep learning curve this Piwigo

You don't have to sync the empty folder before adding photos. I add new folders (full of photos) and sync them all at once and haven't had a problem. Glad you got it working though!

I'll give it another try, but first attempt did not work.
Could just be dyslexic fingers.
