Ian, Did you make any progress? I have now had a chance to look up my settings and here is what I found, which works: - My Gedcom file from Legacy contains the full absolute path to the image file, as used by Legacy. - My TNG Import Settings have the box checked that says, If no local path match: import filename only. - My photos are in a subfolder of a top level folder of my web server. I.e., <web server root path>/TNG_media/Pictures/ - I have 4 TNG web sites, so the root path for each TNG site is at the same level as /TNG_media/. E.g., <web server root path>/Ward/ - The path for my Photo Folder in General Settings for each TNG site is ../TNG_media/Pictures
Since this is off-topic for Legacy, we can continue this off-list if you wish.

I can link them one at a time but cannot get the whole set to link. Its been months since I last tried, Ian On Sat, Apr 8, 2017 at 4:02 PM, Ward Walker <[email protected]> wrote: Ian, Yes, my photos are linked. One thing that seemed to be necessary was to put them all together in one folder, not a structure of folders. I don’t know why, but it solved a problem at the time. (One folder for Pictures and one for Docs.) Also, for docs, I had to edit the GEDCOM file created by Legacy to replace ‘_TYPE DOC’ with ‘_TYPE DOCUMENT’ for TNG to properly link the document files. I don’t know if this has since been fixed.
