    Hi,
    I have about 70 images to upload into maxigallery.

    Is there a script or something around to help with doing a bulk upload? Say from a zip file or from a directory on the web server?

    Cheers

      You can upload pictures to maxigallery from zip files.. Just upload the zip.

      Or you can transfer the pictures with FTP to the correct gallery folder under /assets/galleries/<docid>/ and then use the "resynch gallery" button in MaxiGallery picture management.

      Note that the execution of the script takes some time depending on the parameters you use, so you need to configure you php so that it won’t break the script while it’s running. See maxigallery wiki page and the part that says "IMPORTANT NOTE".
