Hi,

when you have an image gallery (from days with prior Tiki Wiki versions) you are encouraged to migrate it to file galleries. There is also a feature named "migrate".

I now had some spare time and wanted to do this, which I have long evaded. I clicked on migrate.

But it does not migrate... I only copies the contents of the image gallery to file galleries. Btw, the folder that gets created in that process should have its name piped through tra() in order to translate it.

On the positive side, I saw that all folders and all image really made it into the file galleries.
On the negative: There was no migration. On Wiki pages, all images are still taken from the image gallery and not from the file galleries...

So either this should be changed so that all calls for migrated images are transscribed into calls from the file galleries OR this process should be renamed "copy to file galleries".

Copy is okay, it does make things a little easier, but to my understanding of the word "migration", a migration would be to transscribe all image calls on all Wiki pages, something that still is tremendous work if you have many pages to convert...

Thanks
hman
