I am developing a site that requires private galleries (not just albums) with the images (including thumbnails) to be stored in a folder for only that gallery. My thoughts right now, with only a glance at the code, is to intercept the calls to the galleryserverpro.config file and replace the settings that need to be replaced with my custom settings from the database.

I believe this will give me the ability for "master" admin settings (font, image size, etc.) while allowing for the few settings I need for the private galleries.

Does this sound like a good path or does anyone have any other thoughts?

btw, Love the code Martin. Elegant, sleek, and organized. My kind of programming! (hoping flattery gets me somewhere :) )

I don't think I understand your goal. Version 2.3 allows user albums (aka user galleries) where each user has their own area for managing objects. You could, for example, have each user with their own gallery (that is, top level album that they can add child albums and media objects to) with no ability for them to see anyone else's objects.

Maybe I haven't played with it enough to see the full extent of the user albums. I question is based primarily on a rudimentory understanding of 2.2. I have downloaded 2.3 but have not had a good chance of looking at it.

Still love The Code.
