Import Photos already on the server

Hello

I am new to Piwigo.

I have installed Piwigo as a docker on Open Media Vault.
My photos are already saved on my server and Piwigo is installed on the same server , how do I import the photos on my server into piwigo.
When I set up Piwigo I pointed the photos folder to where my photos are saved on my server but they don't show up in Piwigo.

Thanks to anyone who replies.

Please explain how you "pointed".

In Piwigo administration when you go to Photos->Add, did you read through all the tabs?

Thanks for responding

I thought the Docker image in OpenMediaVault requires you to chose where the photos are stored, so I have chosen (pointed) the folder where I have my photos stored.


I followed this guide, the part I'm talking about is at 8:18.

If you have existing photos, you'll need to do a local Synchronization in order for them to show up in Piwigo.
