I created a web photo gallery from Bridge using photoshop. Once created, I now decided to rename the image files. Using bridge, thinking it was easier/faster to batch edit the images in my thumbnails folder rather than the original folder. After refreshing the index.htm of the gallery, the thumbnail images disappeared I’ve just renamed and edited the file info in bridge. I also batched process but went no further allowing photoshop to change shortcut keys for the images.

Thinking there was a file name conflict, I did a batch rename of the htm files in the pages folder as well as the images folder and now the web page cannot be displayed, therefore the regular images don’t appear as well. Leaving only the thumbnail frame without the images.

How do I resolve this? and Is there a better and faster way to batch edit the web photo files than editing the raw files and then regenerating a new gallery in photoshop

1) Make the 1st website from your RAW files

2) Keep only the ‘Images’ folder that’s created and throw the rest of the website away (Thumbnails, Pages folders and Index files). You can also throw away the 3 arrow GIFs in the ‘Images’ folder.

3) Rename the files in the ‘Images’ folder

3) Make a new website using the ‘Images’ folder as the ‘Source’ and whatever as ‘Destination’. Turn off ‘Resize Images’ as they’re already the right size. This speeds up the process of making modifications once you’ve already generated a website from RAW image which takes a lot of time.

Once the website is created you cannot rename anything unless you’re using something like Dreamweaver which will automatically modify any links that are affected by the change. Otherwise the links are broken and so too will be the browser.
