Creating a custom gallery from a main gallery

    Hello, I am not sure that I can accomplish what I am trying with this plugin. Let’s imagine a main gallery which contains 1000 videos and can be browsed and played by every registered user in my WordPress site.

    Now I want a user to be able to pick several videos (for example her favourite 10 videos) in order to create her new custom gallery. I have noticed in the popup window a “More info” button. First question: How can I replace this button with a “Add to my gallery” button?

    My second question is how can I add the selected video, programmatically, into the new custom gallery being created for the user.

    The user will repeat this action 10 times in order to add her favourite 10 videos. Once the new custom gallery is ready, I want the user to be able to share her gallery with other registered users. Therefore, I will embed the gallery in her personal page and protect the access to the page using a Membership plugin (I have tried several of them which can do the job correctly).

    My last question is how the user could delete a video from her custom gallery. I this case, in the popup window, I will need to replace the “More info” button with a “Delete” button. Then how can I delete the selected video programmatically?

    Thank you!

    Hello Dear @davidjava.

    Thank You for contacting with us and for saying us about your request. We are understood what you are trying to make but I am sorry you can’t make it with our gallery. You are right, in popup menu we have “View More” button. But that button is for permalink to other page about the video or any details. Of course you can replace the word “View More” but it will not make different button.. It will work as link again. And about your next version again our plugin doesn’s support that ability to select the videos and create new gallery with that videos. The gallery can manage only admin for admin panel of the plugin. No other people can’t make there changes.

    Thank You.

    Thank you @totalsoft for your quick response.

    I understand that the features that I am requesting are not in your plans for the plugin. Do I still have any chance to create a gallery programmatically?

    I mean, could I create an entry of the gallery post type using the regular WordPress APIs? The only thing I need is that the plugin will “understand” it correctly and display it correctly after I have created it. Or will this implementation break easily in subsequent updates of the plugin, because of incompatibilities?

    Thank you!

    I have a related question.

    Is it possible to have a user arrange video clips by dragging and dropping, then have them playback in that order?

    Thanks you.

    Dear @almacrae.

    Thank You for your good question. The order of the videos can only manage admin from admin panel.

    Thank You.
