I have added the capability called WebDAV to the Add Items tab list. This facility allows you to set up a network drive on your device and treat the Gallery just like any other part of the file system. You can drag and drop files and folders into albums.

Note that this service must be used with care as we do not want the Gallery filled up with unnecessarily large files or images. Please use Gallery Remote to do automatic resizing.

Note the service also allows deletion of files and folders, if Gallery allows you to do this. So please take care.

Please make sure your virus software is up to date as we do not want you putting infected files on the system or loading infected files from it that cause harm to your device. WebDAV does not itself do virus checking but your operating system should on files you use from it.

This is what you see in you 'Actions' drop down menu.

Click on ' Mount with WebDAV'

Then click on 'Click here' which should open up an 'Explorer' window.

Please let me know if that did not work for you. There are other ways to get it going.

I am still experimenting with it but found on Windows 10 the 'Click here' link to mount the network drive did not work. So-

and copy the URL during this procedure.
WEBDAV-THROUGH FILE EXPLORER

●Click This PC.
●Click Map network drive.
●Click below Map network drive

Step 2: Server address
●In the field behind Drive, select a capital for a server that is free (e.g. V:).
●In the field behind Folder, enter the link given on the WEBDAV tab like 'w/PersonalAlbums/YourUserName/'
●Select Reconnect at logon.
●Select Connect using different credentials.
●Click Finish.

Step 3: Login
●In the first field, enter your JT <username>
●In the second field, enter the appropriate password.
●Select Remember my credentials.

Step 4: Explanation
●The W: drive you created is protected by a secure protocol called SSL.
SSL is used on millions of websites for securing the internet connection, like online sales, financial transactions and personal (private) information. All sensitive information will stay secure during transport and is not readable by other people.

Step 5: Troubleshooting
Could not reconnect all network drives. (This problem always occurs after restarting the PC.)
●In File Explorer. This PC.
●DoubleClick on the red crossed marked V: drive. This will take some time.
●When an error occurs just DoubleClick the V: drive again till the login box pops up.
●Check your login credentials and click OK.
