    Hi,

    If I have the following directory structure:

    project/Part 1
    project/Part 2
    project/Part 3

    and have the following example files

    project/Part 1/1.avi
    project/Part 2/2.avi
    project/Part 3/3.avi

    and then perform this php rename query:

    
<?php
rename("project/Part 2", "project/Part 1");
rename("project/Part 3", "project/Part 1");
?>
    PHP:
    Then will it just merge the two folders? Also if any of the files exist with the same name will they just be overwritten?

    Thanks

    I've done it now, had 580GB of uploaded files so didn't want to risk it.
