Recursive share

[regexgit]

Sharing only applies to one album and not to his descendants, which does not help me because I often cut my albums into sub-albums, for example 'trip/day1', 'trip/day2',..etc.

In this case we will never see the sub-albums 'day1', 'day2, ... (1) in the shared album 'trip' (and it is out of the question to share each sub-album one by one).

Would it be possible to add a "recursive" option?

(1) worst: with the parent album empty we got a message "not authorized" ("Vous n'êtes pas autorisé à accéder à la page demandée") with login link.

Is there any update on this matter?

Hi, sorry for the long delay replying to your request. No, it will not be possible, the purpose of the module is to share one album only. But there may be a "trick", maybe you can try and test it : for any shared album, a specific user is created (pattern by default is share_xxxxxxxx). You can give rights for this user for any sub-album using Piwigo permissions screen.

Yes, that could be an acceptable workaround without this problem: once in the sub-album it is impossible to go up to the next level. For example, either a shared link to "mytrip": by clicking on "/root/ mytrip/day1" what is displayed in the breadcrumb is "/root/day1", we have lost "mytrip" (tested in elegant and modus themes). The only way to come back to "mytrip" is to reuse the shared link, not very user-friendly.

@regexgit , the breadcrumbs management has been fixed in latest Github commit (a179738a98e04ae6f9abe55448ab7a23a9b7ddee - not yet released, but next release will correct the behaviour). You will be able to navigate in the sub albums / root album of the share
