&lt;p&gt;The Auto Detection function is used to detect new categories and media that are residing in folders inside the &lt;strong&gt;gallery&lt;/strong&gt; directory, but have not yet been added to the database. Using this function you can add an entire category and its contents to the database at one time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Browse to the category (main categories will display in the main window) that holds a newly uploaded category or media&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Click on the &lt;img src=&quot;images/admin/add.gif&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;16&quot; height=&quot;16&quot; align=&quot;top&quot; /&gt; icon to add the new category or media to the database.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you Auto Detect a new category of images,&amp;nbsp;the system&amp;nbsp;will add all of the media contents in this category into the gallery.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are adding media to an existing category (already Auto Detected) then you will need to add the files individually. If you have many individual files to add, you can click on the Add all Media &lt;img src=&quot;images/admin/add_all.gif&quot; alt=&quot;add all&quot; align=&quot;top&quot; /&gt; icon at the bottom of the screen, to add all new media to the database at once. (Pro. &amp;amp; Ent versions).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
