  3. Edit config.php and change set the path where your photo folder is located. It can scan any path you specify including those that are outside the web server root. If you are hosting it in your Windows machine, you can also put the photos in a separate drive and reference the full path in this manner: E:/Folder1/Subfolder1/ please do not forget the trailing slash. If it is within inside the scope of the web server root, you can use relative path. If it is outside the web server root, you have to specify absolute path.
