Auto Create Photo Album when none present

    Hi Jacob

    Several years ago I recall seeing something about setting up WPPA so that when users (likely new users) went to upload a photo but didn’t have an Album then a new Album was automatically created.

    Is this feature still available ? If so how do I code this please.

    If it is, can any of the following be done ?
    1/ the new Albums automatically have the member’s name in the name field
    2/ a default category set of XYZ

    I ask as for my website users are only presented with their own Album, using #owner,#me parameter and an Upload Button (no other Album admin is available to them – keep it simple)

    Many thanks

    Laurence

    It is fully documented here:

    You need to make yourself a login account on the doc site, just by registering.

    If you still have questions after reading the doc, pls feel free to ask me

    Thank you Jacob, just the information I needed.

    I have one further quick question, please, can I change this text for the newly created Album ?

    “Default photo album for ”

    Thanks,

    Laurence

    Fixed in release version 8.1.07.004
    From the readme:

    * You can now also specify a default description for ‘granted’ albums in Advanced settings -> New -> I -> Item 19a: Grant album description.
    You can use $user as placeholder for the user name as defined in Item 19, as well as all existing album description keywords.
