It's not very hard at all, you just have to decide how you want to do it. The idea is basically to copy the `while(next_album()):` loop into album.php, which is where the subalbums of that album will be printed. But of course, it's entirely up to you how they're displayed and styled, so that's the hard part.
All the themes released with 1.1 in a month or two will be ported to support sub-albums in some way, just in case you're wondering.
If anyone is interested in adding sub-album functionality to the current themes, please let me know!
and yeah.. it really isnt that hard if you wanted to do it yourself. just like Tristan said.. is is really just a matter of copying and pasting the code then just cleaning up any css issues.. which so far for me have really been minimal.
And it really is as easy as Tristan and Chili say. Just copy and paste and then clean up the CSS later. Use the testing-dev theme as your guide for how the loops work. I also noted that it's a good idea to put a "placeholder" in for any albums that don't have subalbums, or albums that have subalbums but no images in the root album. (Does that make sense?)
Guess I better get busy.
I have an issue where I have 8 subalbums, with descriptions for each. When the description is too long, the sub album layout gets all messed up. Think you could fix? Can't post link, its for my kids.
I also fixed the random image function to include prefix support (it was hardcoded before) and some other little minor tweaks like moving the customfunctions file from the zen directory to the theme directory (makes upgrades to the core zenphoto code easier)
