Topic: Picasa Export and svManager

Hello,

I am seriously looking at purchasing svManager but wanted to ask a queation first.

I currently use Picasa to manage my library and plan on using the export HTML feature to create the Simpleviewer galleries.
Can I upload these direct to my site and have svManager locate and use them (I am assuming using the 'import' feature)

Or would I have to remake every gallery within svManager?

If it makes a difference too, I am using the latest export tool available from the simpleviewer website.

Cheers for your help.
Robert.

I haven't actually tried that but svManager should be able to import any gallery as long as the gallery.xml file has the standard structure.

Re: Picasa Export and svManager

Hi Jack,

Firstly I have had sucessess exporting from Picasa and uploading and importing the galleries to my website.

I have however noticed that when I am editing the galleries I cant see any of the thumbnails in the "Images" & "Sort" screens. this makes it a bit difficult to use either of these two screens.

Can you have a look into this and see if it is just me? or maybe a little bug??

Cheers, I am really liking Svmanager so far.

Robert.

If you'd like to email me via the forum and give me your svManager url, user and password, I'll take a quick look to see if I can spot the problem.
