Question Photopost Pro Vb Import

Hello sonnb,

I have to import +70k photos with +110k comments from a vB/PP live forums. Before I test a lot to be prepared. Your importer for PP with vB integration asks for PP pro 8.4. Is that really necessary? I did this test import with the "other" important gallery addon available too and betatested that importer. It even works for PP 5.x.

But when I start the import with your addon, it throws this error:

On my windows testing installation the path to the PP images is
W:/forum/album/data/

That path is written in table pp_settings -> datafull too.

The structure within the data/ folder is like this:

data/500
data/500/medium
data/500/mini
data/500/thumbs
...jpg
data/508
....

So there are "medium" folders, it should work. Since I do not own a PP 8.4, I am not able to update that. Can you please tell me, what is missing or what I can change? Did the table and folder structure really change over the PP versions or is this just a missconfiguration by me? I expect the last, since the import of the other addon works for all PP versions.

Thanks for your help!

 

BTW, I do not have installed full software PP. I just copied the /data structure and importet database.
Maybe the importer is searching for anything within the php files?

 

W:/forum/album/data/500/

would work, since it does find the images in "medium" of the user albums. But all other folders would be ignored. How is the new structure in PP 8.4, please?

 

Yes, that's it. Just an empty folder within data/ - and the importer starts without error.
