Import pictures from X2 to X3

24 Jul 2017, 15:38

Hi guys,

the new X3 looks very cool. I'm currently running Imagevue X2.8.4 with hundreds of Pictures. Is there any Chance to do a Kind of "bulk Import" into the new X3 install? Or do i have to upload each Picture separatly? ^^

And where i can find my X2 order ID? :(

Thanks in advance and greetz from Austria.

Yes, there is a "convert" script available here, which I updated just a few days ago. It only allows X3 to use existing X2 folders and galleries, and doesn't apply any additional settings per page or globally ... You will still need to setup X3 properly, and likely edit pages, but it saves time if you have a large amount of galleries in X2.

Just for reference, there X3 has a batch-file uploader, so you would be able to upload all images in a page/folder in a single task.

I have forwarded your X2 ID in a private message.

Once again, thanks a lot mjau-mjau for answering my questions.

You convinced me. *g I'm going to buy a X3 licence now.

Cheers
