User Upload / Image Title + Description

martinj

Hi,

I would like to allow users to enter some information to their uploaded image. Is it possible to enable some fields like title and description?

As an Admin I have the opportunity to save many addtional information to a picture, it would be great to give this also to the user, but in an limited way.

Does anybody know how to achieve this?

You will have to allow them editing for their albums. There are no individual rights for images. More info on the user rights: http://www.zenphoto.org/news/an-overview-of-zenphoto-users

An alternative is to embed that info into the image metadata before uploading which Zenphoto then will read.

Hi Acrylian,

thanks for your response. The Alternative to embed the info into the image metadata is no good solution.

I try to build a community site for images. So the user should be able to enter this data.

Is it possible to keep pictures in 2 albums? So I could allow every user to upload to his own album. Then I can assign this picture to the main gallery.

So he can change the details of his picture, but also the image is in the main gallery which is public.

Hope you have an solution for this problem

You could use a dynamic album for the main gallery:

Hmm, this will be a problem because I wan't to have more than one gallery. Seems there is no solution for my needs?

I don't understand. You can have as many dynamic albums as you like. Also please note in Zenphoto terms "gallery" means the whole site, we are talking about "albums" ;-)
