First I like to thank mvlcek for the constant and good work on the fantastic I18N plugins.
For a association I would like to build a website with GS. The association has many member events with many pictures for every event. I woud like to have a solution, where the Editor/User of GS could create picture galleries in the easiest and fastest way possible.
The most interesting solution I know from testing another CMS is a plugin called Foldergallery able to handle many images in different categories. Categories are based on the folderstructure on the server, so they are created automaticaly if you sync the filesystem with the database in the foldergallery backend. The only thing you need to do is to upload the pictures (FTP or backend) to the correct folder/subfolders and sync the files in the plugin backend. Everything else (all galleries overview with links, single gallery thumbnails, lightbox, etc.) is created automatically. Only if you like, you can give to the single galleries and pictures labels, order them, etc.
This is a very fast and easy solution! I don't know if mvlcek is interested to merge this concept into I18N Gallery, but I like to ask if something going in this direction is already possible:
If I have created many galleries in I18N Gallery, how can I create a single page where one thumbnail (or the title) of every gallery is listed automatically and clicking on them, the single gallery with thumbnails opens? Is this possible without creating pages for the single galleries? I would love if I18N Gallery could make some steps for more automatism for the management of large numbers of galleries and pictures.
