Except you said that the admin had created these folders. I presume the admin knows FTP. Besides, to quote you "This helps avoid confusion where they need to FTP upload to." That would lead me to believe that whoever "they" are they know FTP.

Let me add another vote for creating albums without uploading new images.
It would be a nice addition to have the option to create a new album from the admin page and then be able to move images from an existing album to the new (empty) album.
Sometimes, I want to reorganize the images in albums, for example I might want to split an album in to 2 albums but not add any new images. In order to do this I need to either create a new folder using an FTP client or upload at least one new image and create the new album. Using FTP or cPanel on the host to add the folder adds unnecessary steps to album creation.
Thanks for all your efforts to make this a great program.

well, try the nightly build that has now a button to create new albums (on top level) /subalbums (if in an album) on the album edit pages.

Awesome! I just tried this latest build and it works great. But when creating an album with two or more words "Test Album", the folder that gets created is "testalbum". Would it be possible to make it "test-album" instead, for SEO purposes?
Thanks for this update.

This works correctly for me. Have you by chance replaced or disabled the SOE filter?

Yep, I have seo plugin activated.. I am using version 1.2.6 [4408]. I downloaded it this morning and put it on my site http://gallery.adamtstein.com . I have set up a new album called "new album" but the dir it links to is "newalbum"

Another vote for a seperate album management option, I'm surprised no-one asked for this feature before. It was the first thing I missed when starting to use zp (I assumed it was a 'feature' to have at least one photo in each album before you can make a subalbum).
For a client, I put up zp with a one click install on Dreamhost, and I wouldn't know where they had to FTP to.
I hope this goes quickly into a release.
Thnx

The nightly build has already the ability to do that.
