Photos to be stored on another server
Hi!
Is there option to have piwigo to be installed on one VPS and to store all images on another VPS?
This is needed because i have two VPS, one is fast but has small HDD, another is slower but has plenty of free GB of space. So, I want to install Piwigo system on the first one, but to make all the photos to be uploaded to the second one.
Any ideas guys?

Re: Photos to be stored on another server
If you're able to map a shared location from one VPS to the other you could symlink Piwigo's _data, galleries, and upload folders to the VPS with more storage. This is basically what I do to store all of my images on my NAS instead of the server where Piwigo is actually running.

Re: Photos to be stored on another server
Thanks,
but it is more actual only after uploading the photos to VPS1 right?
I mean firstly i would have to upload photos to the main server, and later move all the _data galleries to VPS2 and put in symlink for that assets from VPS1 to VPS2?

If you symlink the directories mentioned then an upload on VPS1 will place the files already under the target directories on VPS2.
