My current evaluation system is running under Ubuntu server running WordPress in a docker container. My journey of evaluation continues and I’ve imported all the photos from a photo archive - working well. Taxonomy all sorted. Lots of ticks 🙂

Just now looking at importing the images themselves (JPEGs) - I infer from the import process that you specify path to the images here.

If this instance is inside a docker, I assume that server path is relative to the file structure inside the docker container?

Later… just read that docker can mount a folder in the host directly! That makes it even easier 🙂 I am more impressed with docker as I go on…
