I currently have Gallery2 installed with IIS6.0 and PHP on my personal Windows Server 2003 R2 computer, where my personal site is being hosted.

Is there a way that Gallery2 can display images from a local directory on my hard drive? That is, if I were to add photos to the directory (such as C:\Photos), how can I make Gallery2 automatically show those photos on the page?

Thanks!

I am looking for something similar. We have Skidoo installed on Apache win2k. I would like to drop folders and files into a hot folder and have G2.3 auto propagate new galleries. Galleries could be named via folder names and captions auto set to filename <-- I know G2 supports caption from filename already.

there is a thread about this in the forum already - where a contributor posted a script posted that would do what you're looking for. Have you used the search function?
