WIll do, and thanks so much for the module! I often wish I had the chops to help out with mods myself. I'm pretty good at feature requests, and troubleshooting, but when it comes time to get really under the hood I'm kinda lacking. I do though, have some ideas of how something like this could, in theory, be added and what it would consist of. Ill throw up some suggestions there along with it...

Yes.

Do you mind to write a request on here?
https://github.com/goldsky/Easy-2-Gallery/issues
so this case won't be missing in this forum.

I'm pretty much busy right now, so I'll be back after I'm finished.

Right now I (think) I have created two "albums". Which I guess we can consider top level. Even when I create a sub folder with some images I still go to a new page after clicking a thumbnail.

Where I am trying to get to is a page that will display the overview (like the gallery page) and once those are clicked, have the modal viewer pop up and display those images associated with the "album" id. Then when the modal is closed, a user can open up another one.

So basically the link that the gallery page generates:


          Thumbnail image

would be something like on the album page like:


thumbnail image

I guess its a matter of invoking the show.easy2gallery.php script at the gallery level is what Im thinking.
Make any sense?

@Fatknuckle,
how about a deeper level of folders?
the grandchild folders?

This is similar to what I am trying to do as well. Im thinking that some semantic clarification is required...
So we basically have one "gallery" and then we have multiple "album" thumbnails displayed in that gallery. Within each "album" there are pictures.

When a user clicks on an "album" thumbnail a lightbox (or whatever presentation lib is chosen) will pop up with the images contained in the "album". Close the window and it reverts back to the gallery page where they can select from another album.

Theres no intermediate page displaying the "album" images thumbnails, right?

My objective is to on the main page to show the thumbnail of the album - and when they click on that album then it will show the pictures from that gallery. Rather than have it showing every single picture from those gallery. Am I making sense? I hope.

why don't you use the specific gallery's IDs ?

Okay question - now we have folders in the Easy 2 Gallery - now my objective is to create a page that would list the folders as an album and when they click on the album it would then show them the pictures inside that particular album. How does one go about doing that?

Because when I do something like that - I get the albums but I also get all the other pictures so I end up with like 46 pages of pictures. Which is not my goal. My goal is to compress them into an album then how ever many pages of pictures for tha tparticular album.

Ideas/suggestions?
