I created the gallery set everything up, added albums and categories etc through the admin panel. I was testing something today on my normal test account and noticed i could not add a category at time of image upload? I mean really? Did i miss something in a permission or setting? I can add an album fro the main page, then go back and upload photos to it, is this really the way?   My users need to be able to click upload, create a gallery and add their pictures. Would think this was fairly common sense?     Maybe a plugin i can't find? I've been searching the forums etc, haven't found anything yet.

Never mind. I figured out what the problem was and fixed it. The problem was the event images were lying outside of the category because I didn't create a sub category to place the individual years in. Though still, a plugin to afford us the chance to move multiple albums to another category would be a great idea.

Thanks for everything you guys do here. Most appreciated.

I know post is old but maybe I can help you with this. send me a private message

The gallery I'm inquiring about is: https://mike-colter.com/gallery and it's running the current stable version of 1.6.12 (wondering if an update to 1.6.13 is necessary?)

The question I have is, is there a plugin that will help me move the albums in bulk to another category?

Thanks.

Glad you solved it. If you are still using the HTML5 slideshow, you should make sure that you are using the latest version. The issue you had was resolved a couple versions ago.

That wasn't exactly the problem. I compared the _albums table to another gallery that I have that is working normally, and I noticed that there was an extra column called 'H5ss_cfg' in this one. I dropped it and it worked normally again.

Your debug info says that the user is a guest and can't upload (or edit) items ... thus the error message. You've been logged out and that implies a cookie issue. Ensure that your gallery URL is set correctly (Config -> General Settings).

I read through the troubleshooting data and, in fact, fixed a couple of other problems but could find nothing that helped with this.
I can upload an image with no problem when in Simple - one file at a time mode. But when I switch to Batch files - HTML5 and try to upload two images, I get the following error message:
   You don't have permission to access this page.
   File: /home/special2/public_html/specialforcesphotos.com/editpics.php - Line 75.

However, the images do load as they are in the Album.
Debug info is provided in the attached text file.

You may have run into this issue which causes that symptom.

Hi everyone, thanks for everyone's efforts to develop such an amazing platform. 

I've been having a problem for a few days and I haven't got a solution even by consulting my host.

I can edit existing albums, I can upload, but I can't create any new albums in any of the categories. My coppermine is updated to the latest version, I've already tested it with another theme, tried with another user and I still have the same problem. When I click to create new album, type in a term and when I click "ok", it gets a loading symbol and stops at that.

Could someone please help me find a solution?
