Hi all,
I’ve uploaded a folder with 30431 images inside. When I try to sync it with EE it finds that the number of files is 30431 but when it finishes the sync in the file list I see only 12…
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Hi w84me,
Wow, that’s a lot of files 😉 I would suggest making the sync in batches. Say 1000 files at a time. With over 30000 records to sort, ExpressionEngine is likely timing out on the sync operation. You should be able to move the files into a holding folder on the server, and move them back into the Upload Destination 1000 at a time. That would keep you from having to re-upload them.
Cheers!

Thnx Dan,
I’ll try that

I’ve tried with 1000 files and only the first 10 were synced…

Hey w84me,
Ok then, can you tell me the version of ExpressionEngine you are running? Also, if possible, we’d like to get a closer look at this. Be on the lookout for an email from me.
Thanks!
