Okay, I'm feeling a little (a lot) stupid. How exactly do I create a keyword album that exists as a selectable item within another album. I have both the Keyword and Dynamic modules installed and activated. And yes, I'm on 2.2 RC1 - I already double checked because I was starting to doubt that I actually did the install.
I can view a keyword album - I can write a URL that pulls up a list of pictures matching the keyword list, but don't see any place to save it.
I love the possibilities that this opens up for me - but I'm having problems with that last little bit.
in Site Admin for keyword albums you can turn on keyword links.. this will show links for each keyword with thumbnails.
in theme settings you can add the keywords block to show keywords in a select list or keyword cloud.
to do what you describe (keyword album as an item in a normal album), you can use the linkitem module.. add a linkitem with the URL for your keyword album.
Thanks! That will do it - I'm guessing that someone is developing a third party module that automates that last little bit? If not, how does one get started developing for Gallery? I'm a C#/.NET developer and haven't done much with php, but if someone pointed me in the right direction I could give it go.
Hi everyone. This is my first post so my apologies if I sound like a complete newb.
First of all, Gallery is great. I love it - and the keyword feature is a godsend.
Allanmarcus on Dec 17th made a comment about changing keywords and then finding the dropdown doesn't update. I'm having the same issue. Perhaps someone could post a suggestion/helpful comment?
Can anyone here tell me how I might go about coding Drupal pages so they pick up images matching a keyword (or preferably keywords) and embedding them in a page? At least that way I can manually set up top-level pages for browsing by keywords.
Would it be possible to restrict the keyword searches to within the current album in the gallery? If not, is there a way to remove the keyword links from below the images without modifying a template?
Second, when editing a photo you get "Keywords are not visible, but are searchable." Perhaps this should no longer say they aren't visible when the keyword module is enabled since they are visible?

click "development" in the upper right of this site.. not the greatest docs, but a start.

wait until tomorrow.. the keyword list is cached each day.

Ah. Yes, I see that now. I guess I'd make a lousy doctor - I have no patients. (Bad pun)
Thanks, Mindless. Much appreciated.

IS there any way of upping the frequency of caching the keyword list, say to hourly rather than daily?

I have been posting on the gallery embedded forums to see if I can get a way to browse keywords through Drupal taxonomies. See http://www.galleryembedded.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3749
So far this has drawn a blank.
Can anyone here tell me how I might go about coding Drupal pages so they pick up images matching a keyword (or preferably keywords) and embedding them in a page? At least that way I can manually set up top-level pages for browsing by keywords.
Thanks, James

visit site admin / keyword albums to select where the keyword links appear. (or adjust your theme settings if you added the block somewhere)

Any way to get past the 255 character limitation???

BUMP
I see this is an old thread, but it's the closest to the topic I'm wondering about: can I exclude a keyword?
Let me explain.
I have photos with the following keywords: some with only "Bride", some with only "Groom" and some with only "Bride and Groom"
Now when I show a keyword album filtered on "Bride" for example, I see "Bride" and "Bride and Groom" photos.
How can I get my "Bride" keyword album to only show images with "Bride" as keyword and not those with the "Bride and Groom: keywords?
thanks
