Favorites Per Gallery

At this time, viewing a user’s favorites in the admin is not sorted by gallery but that is something I will look into.

When an image/attachment is deleted from your site, it is also removed from any user who has it in their favorites. I recommend checking that those images were deleted when the gallery was deleted. In Sunshine > Settings > Galleries, there is an option to automatically delete gallery images when the gallery is permanently deleted.

You can also go to Sunshine > Tools > Orphaned Images and clear out any leftover images from galleries that have been deleted.

I really appreciate the fast response.

A client of mine is very interested in this feature but she has many clients, and several with multiple shoots per month.

We can even encounter multiple cameras dumping same file names img-xxxx into multiple galleries, causing lightroom and much confusion. I’m looking into adjusting her ingest procedure to rename files per gallery/client shoot during copy but with multiple shoots per card, it’s not proving to be an easy task. If you have any experience with the pre-processing of images for high volume client I’d love to talk more.

How does sunshine handle large galleries such as wedding with 1000-2000 photos?

Organizing favorites by gallery and sub gallery, or an option to enter an email address and save favorites per gallery without user registration would be ideal. Possibly write the favorites into the gallery table itself?

I really appreciate your fast response and look forward to working with you further.

Thanks, Chris

For your image naming between cameras, that is something you will need to sort on the camera end and not something I can help with.

Sunshine handles large image galleries the same way as small image galleries. Did you have a specific question or concern around larger galleries?

Doing favorites only on an email address is not secure enough as it would allow anyone to type in that email address to view and change them. Favorites will always be behind a user account.
