Re: Rearrange Media Folder


Victor Markham
 

What I have done is set up folders for surnames on my tree with subfolders for each member of the family. In addition I have folders for certificates with sub folders for births  marriages etc. Also a folder for census images with subfolders for each census years. From these folders I copy to FH under the relevant names

I have been happily loading various media directly into my project media folder over a period of time.
However it has now come to the point where I would like to tidy that folder up a bit by adding a simple series of subfolders for documents, people, places.
I see that media represents quite a big chunk of the forum traffic so it seems easy to go astray.

I understand that I can access the project media folder through file manager and create the new sub folders and move the media files accordingly. But what is the correct procedure to follow to avoid ending up with broken links etc?
