Improved Gallery Management #177

Closed bearded-avenger closed 9 years ago

bearded-avenger commented 9 years ago

Creating galleries isn't 100% intuitive, mostly because of the steps WordPress requires a user to take in order to create a gallery. A lot of users actually insert images into the gallery post, when a gallery is supposed to be inserted.

This is confusing, so in 1.4 I'm hoping to clear all of this up. I've started a series of commits that will get us there. Unfortunately this requires a change in logic, but will be backwards compatible. I've created an upgrade script that finds all galleries and converts the image id's found in the gallery shortcode into a comma delimited string now stored in post meta with the same post id.

Images are now directly on the admin page, with ability to sort via drag/drop like so:

I may need @etcook to come in and take care of a few things but I'll be able to get it most of the way at least.

Still to figure out:
