Hi
Just to let you know that I'm going to release a new version of the Gallery extension. It will include most of the features requested by users. The basic concept of the gallery is also slightly different now, there are some great new features:
- Implementing the new comments system[/*:m:1g1el7ui]
- Archives are now called collections: Rich text descriptions, default BE sorting mode (switchable: manual, date, title), page filter (link your collection to a page for auto-filter by page), Artists Groups (member groups) and default image gallery settings [/*:m:1g1el7ui]
- Gallery items include new meta parameters (so you can list single gallery artwork/photos): Author (person adding), Artist/Photographer Member, Medium, Substrate, Artwork size, Status, Poster Image[/*:m:1g1el7ui]
- Gallery List Module has new options: total items, featured, items per page, skip items, sortorder (override or leave as collection default), filter support (for status field, etc.)[/*:m:1g1el7ui]
- New Gallery List page-linked: you do not specify a gallery at all, and it automatically checks if the current page is setup in a gallery collection and renders only that collection (or multiple collections).[/*:m:1g1el7ui]
- Inserttag support (replacing Gallery Single Module's purpose) {{insert_gallery::ID&module=ID}} to link the reader module to render the gallery with.[/*:m:1g1el7ui]
I hope you're excited as I am to publish this soon.
