Hmmm, that might be an option but I’m using public albums (one album per category) into which all users can post their pictures.

The upload is done via the WPPA+ upload widget and in table VII-A I assigned the upload rights.

I’m creating a wildlife photo blog website and my idea was to have one public album per category (mammals, birds, insects, …). All users can post their pictures in any of these albums.
Or is this the wrong approach and should I create one album per user? But can I then force the pictures to belong to one of the categories I defined?

Thanks for the quick fix! It’s working perfect now!

With the indexed search it will indeed find all words that start with searchword.

It would be nice if you could add the switch to allow searchword to be anywhere in the text.

I would like to limit the number of photos one user can upload per day to avoid this user fills the entire front page of my website (the most recently posted photos). By allowing one user to only post maximum 3 photos, I give the opportunity to the other users to also post some photos that can be seen immediately on the first page.

As I don’t have unlimited disk capacity, I want to limit the total number of pictures one user can keep. If he exceeds the 50 photos limit, he will first have to remove some of his older photos before he can post any new one.

Depending on the role of a user I could allow the lowest role to be able to post maximum 50 photos and the next role in level could then have for instance a maximum limit of 100 photos.

Kind regards,

Thanks for the quick reply!

I didn’t realize I had to click on the link “move photo to” also because in the admin module everything goes automagically without confirming the changes.

Thanks for the quick reply as usual.
Sorry for my late reply, but I didn’t have any spare time to continue with it.

Limiting the number of photos is an option as well, but in that case I would like to implement two limits per role.
In table VII-B3 I can either limit the number of photos per day or the number of photos “for ever”.

Would it be possible to have two limits for one role?
1. limit the number of photos to 3 per day
2. limit the total number of photos a user can have to (let’s say) 50

Kind regards,

Thanks for including this in the wishlist.

Thanks a lot for the quick reply again. I like this plugin more and more.
The configurable parameters are so numerous I think you can write a book about it.

Thanks for the quick reply.
It is true that the comment displays when hovering over the image, but I would like to be able to read all comments immediately.

Preferably, I would like to see the following output in the comments on photos widget.
<comment1> (<author1>) <picture1>
<comment2> (<author2>) <picture2>
<comment3> (<author3>) <picture3>

The height per line would then be the height of the picture and not the combined height of the picture and the author’s name.
As I understand not everyone wants this extended format, it would be nice if there was an option to select for this extended format or to keep the traditional condensed format.

Thanks for the quick reply.
By changing table VI-A, option 6+7 to “the full size photo in a slideshow” and link page to “Home”, I have indeed what I wanted.
