By fashion on

Hi, am using Drupal 5.2 and everything seems to be working well except "per user image gallery"

I tried to search and read many topics here but couldn't find something that I am looking for. Acidfree module claims to do the job, but didnt work for me somehow.

Can someone help, please.

I need to give each registered user ( of a particular group/role ) a personal image gallery that can be accessed using say www.domain.com/username/gallery ( I know pathauto wud be reqd ).
I want each of these users should be able to create more galleries and sub-galleries like gallery/abc and gallery/abc/def and gallery/fff etc.

Not to mention, auto thumbnailing , clicking for a larger image, limiting upload file size, and total upload limit per user etc.

Thanks.

If you turn on "per user image gallery", it creates the gallery for a user the first time they visit it. They need to go to user/acidfree/user_id and it gets created. I just discovered this recently.

There's also a way to create them when they first log in - see here: http://drupal.org/node/144636

We've been able to do everything you describe (and more!) using Gallery 2 and the gallery module.

"..total upload limit per user.."

So it's not possible to limit the user quota for Acidfree Albums and the user albums?

Gallery 2 is a massive package of files, I prefer Acidfree. But the user quota would be very nice!

Hi,
I had also faced this problem. But I am able to find out remedy over this.
Just create new view as "My Photo".
While creating view, You have to give your own url i.e. "photo/my" in url field.
After that, You need to have field like "Image: Display Image", "Node: Created Time" "Node: Edit link" etc.
Now important part will start here....
In the filter section, you have to add the filter as "Node: Author is Current User" and Node: Type =''Image'
After saving this view, When you give path "q=photo/my" to the menu as per your requirement. It will shows the image for individual user(i.e. per user image gallery)

If you find any difficulty with this don't hesitate to contact me.
