Alphabetic directory of album covers?

    Thank you again for such a great plugin. I only wish I were better at this so I could stop asking questions!

    Here is what I am trying to do:

    1. I would like the main page of my gallery to be a display of all uploaded photos in all galleries, in order of most recent to oldest. This would obviously have to be paginated, which is fine. I have it set up now where my first 24 thumbnails show up, but even though there are enough images uploaded to populate at least another page, there is no second page, or at least there is no clickable way to get to a second page, and I am not sure what settings would need to be changed to make this happen. My users’ albums by default are set up as child albums of the main album (peeps gallery).

    2. I am also looking for a directory page of sorts. I would like this to be an alphabetical listing of album cover thumbnails and each one linked to its respective gallery. I will eventually have enough users that there will be multiple pages of albums, if it is possible to limit the number of albums shown per page. I am sure there is a way to do all of this, but I have not been able to figure it out.

    Most importantly, I need the directory page (#2), because my users like to browse galleries of other users, and need to be able to find them easily. If I have to use a widget to show the most recent uploads in a sidebar (#1), I can do that, and just link the main gallery page to the directory instead of the way I have it set up now. I am open to suggestions and appreciate your help.

    I found in the tutorial section the example at imagefactory.it and that is close to what I am looking for. I am going to continue to read tutorials and will come back if I find what I am looking for in the meantime.

    Ok, I’ve found the way to link to the “directory” page I was looking for. It shows up as a list, rather than an array, which is what I would like. Is that just something that I will need to learn how to code or is there an option in the settings somewhere to make multiple rows/columns of album covers?

    What I have found is closer to what I need than what I had a couple of hours ago, so things are moving in the right direction. Still if you have any advice, it is always welcomed! ??

    Thank you!

    Read the note on multi column on this page: https://wppa.opajaap.nl/my-album/ below the album cover display. Especially when your theme is responsive read about the mcr addition.

    Thanks again! Sometimes it is just a matter of not knowing what to type in the search bar. Have a great day!
