AamAadmiParty / india-standalone-drupal

A drupal based website that currently powers http://aamaadmiparty.org/, the "main" site. It is different from other AAP websites in drupal for primarily large scale email sending capabilities, among many other small things. (This website is a contender for merging with 'regional-domainsite-drupal' reposiroty when the latter is ready)

a. Provide an interface to upload multiple snaps, add their title and tag them.

b. Ability to upload multiple albums

c. A landing page that shows all albums. Pagination of galleries as their number increases.

d. Clicking on a album will take the user to a album viewing page. One prominent image with a photo strip below it.

e. Clicking on a photo will make it prominent on the page

f. Title, Description of the image to be visible.

g. Photos should be searchable.

@ankurshrivastav @tmohan26 I would really suggest to not create this at all, and definitely not now. Below are my reasons -

Major: Maintaining galleries with kind of traffic we are seeing and less resources is only inviting trouble.

  1. The more features we have the more we will need to support them (human and server resources)
  2. We will have more image assets to manage on S3 (we will move assess there soon)
  3. For a image/graphic rich site, we already have images attached to all node types and we can use them in various kinds of nodes listing, banners etc. (This is something we need to improve - yes)
  4. For album-ish galleries - FB is already our best place.
  5. But even if we want some really good ones to show on the site, lets just embedd FB albums, slideshares, google images slideshow etc.

Ok, hos does this work?

  1. Can we create multiple albums on facebook and All of them get embedded on the website?
  2. When someone clicks on a photograph, are they still on our website or are taken to FB to view these?
  3. Do we have the ability to share these from our website?
  4. Will we get the photgraph name, description & tags on the website?
  5. Can we create an album listing page?

Based on the answers to the above, we can take a call. Can we see a demo of this somewhere?

Thanks, Ankur

@ankurshrivastav

Something like this - http://facebookgalleria.com/ More details here - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5945720/how-to-display-my-photo-albums-and-photos-that-are-in-fb-on-my-own-website

We would not get the name description etc on the site, as per my early research. It would be more like iframe embed.

Again, creating a full fledged polished image gallery in drupal is not more than a weeks work, but at our traffic levels + decreasing dev time contribution in future => owning it in drupal would not be a good idea.

Important: If you already sign up with personal FB account, pleas log out, else this fb widget will use you account credential.
