Copied 0 files? Copy Add-on does not work?

[duorient]

Hi,

I'm not sure whether I used the copy add-on correctly or not, but I've put the absolute path of the folder where I uploaded the pictures to in the input field and always receive "Copied 0 files" after I click on the button "Copy Folder". I used the direct link of where the pictures are located at, perhaps this is why it's not working? But I couldn't figure out how else I can specify the absolute path of the folder? This is the folder where my pictures are in that I wish to copy: http://www.duorient.com/img/sanjiuma/ (it's just a test folder), and I put "http://www.duorient.com/img/sanjiuma/" in the input field. My photoblog is at this address: http://www.duorient.com/img/ (again, just testing for now). Could someone please tell me what I did wrong? Much appreciated!


Thanks,
Susan

The copy folder addon uses relative paths on the servers hard drive.

Which, in your case, would be more than likely: "../sanjiuma/".

You might want to get the admin resize addon too, so it will scale down some of those LARGE photos down to a manageable size.

Be aware that the copy folder addon only copies the images, it doesn't work with the admin resize addon (which is for uploading only).

So you might want to scale them down before you copy the folder.
