Be able to change the file name without loosing descriptions...
Hi.
I've been playing around with my album for a few weeks now, and I think phpAlbum needs one or two improvements.
On the Upload manager page, there should be a way to rename the files, so the short and long description don't get errased. I just renamed 53 pictures to get the sorting order that I wanted, and I lost all the descriptions. :-(
The other option is to somehow add the ability to give the pictures a set number and then be able to select "sort from number 0 to whatever" or "sort from picture number whatever to 0".
My problem is: in each directory, I have pictures taken by several different cameras, some have messed up date/times, and all are named differently...so none of the curent sorting options really work for me. :-/
my album is currently located at www.sorcerers2.net/kitrax/photos.html

Manual sorting of pictures
Manual sorting of pictures and renaming of directories and files is planned to be implemented ...
for description of pictures i would use IPTC which is supported by phpAlbum, and then you will never have to retype the descriptions, they are automatically imported from JPG...
