Ok, I have to get used to your way of using the system. I’ll try! Thank you
Robin, you are right, of course the files are moved to ss_media. And this procedure does not limit the number of uploaded files.
I see two problems with renaming:
1. As mentioned in an other post, you might have thousands of files in one folder. If you ever have to work with one of those files on the server without knowing exact details of the file, it will be hard to find the file. I know, you will point once again to the media library, but I don’t see any reason why you should give up a meaningful file name, when the original file had this name at the time of import.
2. For SEO it would be helpful to have meaningful filenames
Thank you for your replies!
Steveh mentioned about 5000 photos, roughly the amount of photos I intend to upload. With an average file size of 10 to 15 MB you get easily a volume of 50GB+ in one folder. Whenever you have to work with the server, even for a backup…this is a bit too much. Btw: Also WP is importing the files to different folders. At least per month…
Of course, it is possible to manage the files with the media interface.
Concerning the ftp upload out of LR, I didn’t try it so far, I’ll report.
