Answer by: George Kaloyanov, Aplus.Net Knowledge Base Support

Coppermine is a multi-purpose, fully-featured web picture gallery written in PHP and using a MySQL database. It is available for installation through the Aplus.Net Control Panel for the following Unix-based hosting plans:

Business Class Unix
Pro Unix
eCommerce Unix

Here is how you can create albums in your Coppermine Photo Gallery:

Start by logging into the Aplus.Net Control Panel at http://cp.aplus.net using your Registration Number and Customer Password.
Select Web Hosting from the top navigation bar.
Next, select Hosted Domains and click on Manage Hosted Domains.
Now, select the hosted domain that you’d like to manage.
Click the Design tab.
Click the Coppermine Photo Gallery icon.
Go to the Config section.
Click the Albums button. You will be automatically logged into your Coppermine Administrative Panel and redirected to the Albums Management section.
You can organize your Photo Albums in categories, however, this is optional. Use the Select category dropdown menu to choose the category you’d like to create the new album in. You can select either an existing category or the "*No category*" option. In any case, the names of all existing Albums in the selected category will be loaded.
Click New and enter the name of your album on the place of the "New album" default value.
Finally, click the Apply modifications button.

An extensive documentation (in HTML format) for the Coppermine Photo Gallery is uploaded to your FTP space as part of the installation process. The documentation is located in a folder named docs which is created inside your Coppermine installation directory.

Examples:

If you have installed your Coppermine Photo Gallery in a sub directory of your /html, the documentation will be located at:

http://yourdomain.com/cpg/docs/index.htm

If you have installed your Coppermine Photo Gallery in a subdomain named cpg, the documentation will be located at:
