Hi
Sorry if this is a repeat but I couldn't find the exact thread I needed.

My original gallery was a vbadvanced one back in the day until I upgraded it to vBGallery 2.5 a while back. The install went fine but I was never able to see the old vbadvanced photos and categories in the new gallery.

I just updated to vBGallery 3.01 since my gallery was down since we upgraded to VB4 last year. The upgrade went fine and all of the 2.5 images are there but I would like to add back in all of the old vBA photos if I can?

All of the old images are still in the /gallery/images/ number folders and all the image paths still work so they show in their threads but none of them are in the gallery itself.

If I use Maintenance to scan the database I see all the images listed as "Not In Database"

Is there a way to rebuild the database so that it grabs those files and puts them where they need to be in the gallery?

Thanks for any help you can give me.
