It is a pretty healthy bit of code and as such will be done in a subsequent version. I plan to have 4.0b1 available pretty soon here. There still won't be any upload functionality, the photos need to be added to the server via FTP or one of the many web based psuedo FTP clients that are available (assuming you are running on a remote server, obviously this isn't a problem if you are running locally). I'll add a link to one of the PHP ftp clients in the FAQ.

Dillahunty Mon, 07 Jul 2003 02:37:31 +0000 http://alexking.org/blog/2003/07/02/file-browser#comment-262 Would an album/group system really be any different from additional keywords? Maybe a different display method, but have it map to keywords "under the covers"? I'm just looking for similar functionality without additional coding :-) Maybe I'm not making sense, but with keyword based grouping, you get the searching and virtual folders you have now... pictures in multiple albums, etc. Want to make sure that all gets carried forward. Looks like a neat project/product. Is your "version 4" available anywhere yet? I have fits trying to upload and maybe that fixes it. Thanks, Bruce Would an album/group system really be any different from additional keywords? Maybe a different display method, but have it map to keywords “under the covers”?

I plan to add support for groups/albums in a future release.

Where can I download from? P.S. What about categories/galleries in Portfolio view? It should not be so difficult. I guess Portfolio containing dazillions of pictures is a little clumsy. I'd like to search my photos and besides show my friends my Dawns, Sunsets, Portraits, White flowers, Red flowers, Blue flowers, red thorns :-) I haven’t finished testing 3.5b3 yet ;-) Here I am, you new 4.0 beta tester!
