Folder frustration
10 years ago
General
I've been trying to make use of the new folders feature on FA. Trying to sort things by moving them into appropriate folders, but I can only seem to copy them. copies of the images still remain in the main gallery. Does anybody know how to actually MOVE them instead of making a copy?

I always thought the folder feature was just a glorified tagging feature, thus "working as intended". No idea if it is that way or is a glitch.

Pretty much this.
They aren't copies. Your gallery submissions stay where they are. It's just they're now listed as being part of your overall gallery as well as being organized by folder. All folders do is give people a quick way to go to certain pieces of art in your gallery based on the subject matter. Like A25 commented-it's a glorified tagging feature. You aren't actually moving anything around.

Ah. That can be helpful for those who have hundreds of posts. Thanks.

The folders are like the Inkbunny pools. It's just a way for people who aren't watching you to find images of a similar nature. You still only have two galleries - Main and Scraps. The folders are just for organization of topics.

Yeah, I'm starting to understand that now.
