Because the gallery software insists on sorting the directories alphabetically. Yes, I know, the current situation isn't particularly good.Crazy Bob wrote:why aren't the picture galleries sorted by date? it's becoming harder and harder (as more meetings are added) to quickly find the pictures of the meeting one is looking for.

The titles can be changed, but it wouldn't really help -- the gallery doesn't sort by title but by the directory name (such as EBTM06-PT-COIMBRA-SEP).Fons wrote:I remember this kind of dicussion, but it wasn't possible to change the titles to "2007.04.27 - Meeting etc etc etc"

The old links can be kept in working by means of redirection.
The only even a bit harder thing about this hiding the old links from the link view. The very easiest way of doing this by creating a new directory for the "correctly" named directories and let the old address completely die.
So, my idea is as follows:
Create a subdomain called gallery.eurobilltracker.com , that will have its files in /usr/share/wwwroot/Gallery instead of /usr/share/wwwroot/gallery .
Move the current directories in gallery to have Gallery and give them better names.
Make a simple redirecting html page that will redirect to gallery.eurobilltracker.com , name the html file index.html and put it in /usr/share/wwwroot/gallery .
Do about the same for all the old subdirectories of gallery/ , redirecting to the appropriate new subdirectory of Gallery.
I figure that'll pretty much be it. A cheapass, easy way out. We will have to learn to use gallery.eurobilltracker.com instead of eurobilltracker.eu/gallery, but I think we all will be happy to do that if we that way get a better working gallery.
And, for those who want to use the old address, we've got the redirection in the old address, anyway.
I think I should be able to write a shell script for doing what I have described above. That shell script would then do everything for you when you execute it in the gallery/ directory.
It would look about shis way:
mkdir ../Gallery
mkdir ../Gallery/2007-12-24_Korvatunturi_Santas_EBT-party
mv santaparty24122007/* ../Gallery/2007-12-24_Korvatunturi_Santas_EBT-party/
echo "<html>blaablaa</html>" > santaparty24122007/index.html
There might be some flaws about this, perhaps you must somehow regenerate the pictures in the other folder or something like that. I bet you know it. Feel free to PM me about it.
Eventually something has to be done about this in any case. The earlier, the easier it is.

I'm preparing mine, too. They haven't been post-processed yet, except for some panorama shots.

And then please wait for some weeks ?! Or is something wrong with my eMails and pictures from the OeSB-Visit in Vienna 5th february?avij wrote:If you take pictures from a meeting, you can send them to EBT for publishing in the gallery. You don't have to worry about filling our email inbox...
Re: Pictures of EBT Meetings
The same counts for the Dutch/Belgian meeting in Baarle-Nassau-Hertog from last November, and I believe there was a Finnish meeting as well that month...Miles66 wrote:And then please wait for some weeks ?! Or is something wrong with my eMails and pictures from the OeSB-Visit in Vienna 5th february?

Re: Pictures of EBT Meetings
But I don't understand this. The meeting was on the day when I send my pictures. .. so they send the pictures later...Fons wrote:The same counts for the Dutch/Belgian meeting in Baarle-Nassau-Hertog from last November, and I believe there was a Finnish meeting as well that month...
