Re: Re: Moving files in folder - strategy?

(a) is the folder / files permissions correct and secure?
Appears so, yes. You can use the Tiki installer to verify that permissions are set correctly and that Tiki can fully read/write to the directory.
(b) is getting these bin files, instead of .jpb or .pdf files ok?
Yes, this is to make it more difficult for people to access the images directly from a URL (thereby by-passing the Tiki security checks. File names are hashed upon upload for your protection.
(c) if yes, how do I check these pictures with plesk? If I click them I get an "Unable to read the file or the file format is not supported" error message. Mmmm, why I was expecting a readable file format for these files?
I'm not sure what Plesk is.... You can check the files via the Tiki File Gallery. Please review the docs
for details.
(d) finally, my database should be a lot smaller now, right?
Yes, if you deleted the items from the DB. As I recall, simply "moving" the files does not actually delete the record from the DB.
