Uploading question
« on: May 31, 2016, 04:09:16 AM »
Something thats been bothering me a little and slowing me down, when ingesting i have an album for instance called " TEST " then i create a sub album inside for instance named " ONE " when i ingest images into " ONE " i always get another sub album created by PM containing the images which i then have to drag and drop into my own sub album " ONE " when im uploading multiple albums its time consuming having to drag and drop them all.

Ive attached a screen shot of what i mean, you can see the album " TEST " and the sub album " ONE " and also the PH created sub album " 20160531 " i now would have to select and drop all the images in " 20160531 " in to " ONE " then delete " 20160531 "

You have selected “into dated folder only” this tells PM to create a folder with the date. Change that to something more appropriate and you'll be fine :)
