Installing TGPX today

[Vivaldi]

I'm not used to writing tutorials but here it goes ... do a gallery search of Your galleries. Let's say criteria is a certain sponsor and picture galleries only. in my case I have sponsors listed as sponsor-site-name (like ND-milfhunter)
so ... I would choose
Sponsor: ND-milfhunter
Format: pictures
and do a Search!
You've got a list of galleries now. Whenever You try to change anything, in case of the picture I've added e-mail address, You'll always get 4 basic options. The third one is mass change and it refers to Your current change, in my case e-mail address. So, when I hit it I will change all e-mail addresses at the galleries that came out from my search criteria (Sponsor: ND-milfhunter, Format: pictures).
You can do the same with Categories. Be careful cause once You hit change button there is no coming back. Best option is to play it safe and narrow Your search as much as You can before You make a change. I have had a problem with it. At first I have manually changed cats for some of my galleries (added few galleries to 4 categories) but then did a search and did a mass change for some sponsor galleries and whipped out the previous work since those galleries with 4 cats matched search criteria.
Remember, if the organization of the galleries and cats is ok narrow Your search to minimize Your possible error damage :-) and don't say I didn't told You!
Oh ... and this is the only way I know of 'mass change' ... hope it helps.

I was thinking the exact same thing.

Good question for the JMBsoft guys. They could likely be purged out manually, the thumb and the actual entry.

I have tgpx working for the most part but where I'm having problems is when I upload galleries there is no thumbs so I go to gallery search and pull up the galleries then I click on crop thumbs and it shows scanning gallery and then I get this "No thumbnails could be found on this gallery;" but yet the gallery has thumbs on it....so I went to the scanner and run it and it runs and finishes just fine but yet it doen't do what it is set to do which is to build thumbs for galleries without thumbs and when I check the galleries there is no thumbs!

What am I doing wrong at this point?

thewiz, could you post a sample gallery where you get that error?

As far as I know, if the gallery is redirecting like below, you shall have to add the domain to the whitelist.

well here is one of the galleries http://www.fetishhitsgallery.com/pic...t1/revs=thewiz

Now in tgpx admin its showing the gallery has 16 thumbs after I run the scanner but there is no thumbs in my thumbs folder its like if I want thumbs using tgpx I have to go to the gallery and grab one then upload it manually and I'm not going to do that.....I have been told to set chmod settings to 777 on the thumbs folder so I did then I was told to try and add the thumbs folder outside the tgpx folder so I did that too but no matter what I have tried the tgpx script scans the gallery and seems like it is doing what it should but still no thumbs are being added to my thumbs folder!

Hell I just tried submitting this hand build gallery http://www.fantasybabes.info/busty-kaylee-parker/ from one of my own sites using the standard submit page and all worked fine but it said "A preview thumb cannot be created or cropped because no valid images were found on your gallery" but yet there are images so something is not working right!
