Hello,

I have a 2 year old gallery with about 12000 images that has been dormant since long time and has also been  moved to a different host and domain.

I would like to refresh everything - clear the old cache and regenerate all thumbs.
What are latest best practices for doing this?
I read a lot of old posts here and would like to get some more up to date insights.

- Which option to choose for clearing existing cache from Tools > Maintenance > Actions?
- Possible to regenerate all 12000 images in a single run under Photos > Batch Manager? Or is there a risk of the (shared) server to hang?
- Should I first delete existing thumbs from /_data/i ?
- I have about 1000 more images to add by FTP. Will new thumbs be created automatically or should I run the batch again for them afterwards?

Any other related recommendations?

Thanks in advance!
