    I’m looking currently for a way to display all photos posted by a certain user. Not from within the admin module but via the normal web interface visible for any user.

    One option could be to have a list of all users in a widget. This widget could either display all registered users or a top ten list (based on number of photos, number of comments or time since initial registration). By clicking on any of the usernames listed, one would land on a separate page displaying only the photos uploaded by that user.
    (A “my pictures” widget could do something similar but then always for the user that is logged in.)

    Another option would be to add a “gallery” link in the comments next to the name of the user who posted the comment.
    Clicking on the link will open a new page with all the photos uploaded by this commenter.

    Would these be possible in a future version if not yet already available?

    Kind regards,

    Dirk Claesen

    Thanx so far. Some issues i am aware of, and still working on.
    I decovered a problem, that is fixed now, that the non admin user not always see the edit link.

    I have uploaded the most recent changes, i hope you want to re-install .rc2 again ( new download ) for further testing.

    I didn’t have time to try your new release candidate, but I just installed the final release and the problem with the edit photo not displaying the actual picture has disappeared.

    If I change the description and wait until the “refresh and exit” button appears in the upper right corner, then the complete change is applied.
    That is something an end user can be informed of and will keep him happy.
    When pressing the “refresh and exit” button the page is refreshed and the new description is displayed (under Firefox, Chromium and Opera). This problem is thus solved as well.

    I noticed however that if I make a change I have to press the “refresh and exit” button twice. First I have to wait for the countdown. If I click the button then I see another countdown (only wait for 1 second) and if I then click again on the button, the popup window is closed and the page is refreshed.

    If it could be fixed that one click on the button would close the popup window and trigger the refresh, that would be great.

    Minor note: shouldn’t the text be “exit and refresh” as first you close the popup window and then a refresh is triggered. With the text “refresh and exit” it seems to me that the refresh is done first, followed by an exit from the current screen. (but now I’m really splitting hairs)

If I click the button then I see another countdown (only wait for 1 second) and if I then click again on the button, the popup window is closed and the page is refreshed.

    There are two things happening:
    1. an ajax update request after each key-up ( onkeyup=”..” ) ( generates the counter > 1 )
    2. an ajax update when the focus gets off the textarea. ( onchange=”..” )
    1. is needed for the instantaneous update to work, 2. is needed for a copy-paste operation using the mouse.
    When you click the refresh & exit button, the textarea looses focus, and does the update again.
    This is only a problem for textareas, normal 1 line imput fields see that there is no change at losing focus after the last keyup.
    I will see if it is doable to check the need before doing the last ajax call.

    shouldn’t the text be “exit and refresh”

    Yes, i agree. It was completely thought from what is happening ( window.opener.location.reload();window.close(); ), and not from the users point of view. I’ll change it.

    Yes, its doable and will be implemented in 5.1.18
