I had to move my site to a new host (tinyportalhosting.net) as my old host was unable to solve performance and availability issues with their servers.

tinyportalhosting.net moved the whole site for me to their servers and it all works fine, apart from uploading new pictures via the gallery (individual and batch).

The setting in the admin section is
/home/mmcukcom/public_html/gallerythis folder exists is chmo'd 777


but when I or my users load pictures, they end up in this folder
/home/mmcukcom/public_html/gallery1this folder exists, is chmo'd 775 and has no subfolders below it

None of the pictures loaded to this actually show up in the gallery, even though they are well below the max size.

All files under the gallery folder, which were there before the move, show fine in the gallery.

I uploaded pictures via the bulk upload and got no errors. When looking at the gallery page, some of the thumbnails are missing, but when I go through the pictures one by one in normal size, the pictures are there.

see below screenshot for what the gallery looks like

I have just purchased SMF Gallery Pro. I had tested SMF Gallery lite on the site and it worked fine. According to the instructions I uninstalled it (no problem) and then installed the Pro version. The install went apparently without problems (if a bit slow), however the redirect at then end sends me to the homepage of my site instead of to the admin screen (both, waiting for it and clicking the redirect button).

When I go to the admin section, I have no admin function for the Gallery (as I had with the lite version)

The package manager says it is installed, however, when I try to uninstall, I get errors on

./Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english-utf8.php which was skipped during the install
./index.php
./Themes/default/index.template.php
./Sources/Subs.php
./Sources/ManagePermissions.php

I do not use a custom theme, though I have made a change to the index file to accommodate a link to the coppermine gallery which I am trying to replace.

The site is http://www.mmc.uk.com, SMF 1.1.4 with TP 0.98

I am currently using coppermine, however there are no user galleries and on the web server I basically have one folder per gallery (around 90 galleries in total) ... from the SMF Gallery pro description it sounds like I can import the pictures from those folders (there are hardly any comments so I am not worried about loosing those) ...

the question is, would I have to import folder by folder or is there a batch function that would let me load several folders into several galleries or even better create galleries from folders?
