Moving galleries / photos from one smug account to another...

adpace

Is this possible? Can I move whole galleries or even just some photos from one smugmug account to another (& possibly keep comments attached?)?

Thanks!!

Andy, I'm pleased to hear that this is possible.

Currently I have a standard account with a small but active following of viewers. I want to upgrade to a professional account (including a newly registered domain name) and don't want to disturb my regular users until the professional settings and appearance are well established and tested. It might take me a couple of weeks!

My thoughts are to simply create a new smugmug account with the new domain name and work on that account to configure the structure and appearance that I want. Then, I would migrate all of the galleries from the old account to the new account and then close the old account. Could the "migrate" be done as a COPY, and not a MOVE?

Does this sound do-able to you? Any advice or suggestions that you would give? Are you aware of any smugmug users that have already done a migration from one account to another?

As ever, thanks for your help.

Bob.

Hi, Can't do copy, sorry - Move only.
