[Enhancement] create tag albums in a album #1567
Comments
Yeah, I see what you were doing there, but this was never meant to be a supported scenario. Tag albums as currently implemented were meant to reside at the top level only and being able to move them to another album was basically a bug, which we've fixed now. There is of course a larger conversation to be had about how best to support a scenario like the one you outlined above; in fact, we've had at least some of that conversation already, though without reaching any conclusions (or at least without anybody implementing any replacement so far). Let's make sure though that we fully understand how you want this to work. You would like to keep all the photos from a particular event in a single album, but then you would like to make a subset of these photos public, correct? And you want to avoid having the public vs non-public photos in separate albums (which is how this could be solved now)? Or are all the photos (and their containing album) public and you simply want to have an additional grouping of favorite ones (and you don't want to simply use the current "Copy" functionality, presumably because the metadata can then get of sync between the copies?). |
yes.
yes, but In my case, the 'non-favorite' album is also public. (we will come to this later).
Everything is public in my case.
Actually, even if the tag album is shared, it cannot 'unlock' the photos it contains due to this ownership issue. I have missed the "Copy" functionality. I should be using it! I quite like tag albums. As you said, the metadata can then sync between the copies and keeps the database nicely organized. Thanks for your comment and good questions that made me realize the tag album limitation and how 'Copy' is not that bad, actually ❤️ ! |
Before lychee v4.6.0 a tag album could be added (moved actually) to any album.
This was super useful to create restricted version of an album by only tagging the images and keeping the album structure nice and organized.
Here is an example:
The lookup of tagged images works globally (not per albums), it is up to the user to set different 'fav' identifier like in the example.
