deleting pictures from gallery

[70s_PotHead]

Is there any way of adding macro-management of images at the gallery index level? As in, a 'delete' checkbox next to each image thumbnail? Then the user could refresh, or save the index page, deleting large amounts of images at the same time. There's no difference at the server end, as it will just forward a batch delete command to the DB instead of singly. I'm sure this functionality exists within the gallery PHP code...?

Yea that, ^^^the main reason somthing needs to be changed in this area is for the members security, if for some reason a security issue comes up, you need to have the ability to clean house quickly...jmo

Sorry to bump this again, but I could really do with some help here - I need to delete a whole lot of images from my gallery - at least half - and it is taking ages to delete them individually - up to a minute per image. At this rate it could take a week...

Too me this would be the one singe thing that would make life so much better for ICmag members. This really should be addressed. Deleting pics one at a time becomes a huge job to even think about.

Yes I am deleting some of mine now.
You need to toggle the SORT BY: title/most Active to refresh the screen.

really really big
BUMP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
why was this option taken away ?

Brother Bear when I checked yesterday your images were all gone.

You can always ask a mod or admin to delete your images. But mods will only delete ALL your images, we can't go and select images, that's your responsibility.

 

[Brother Bear]

yes sir, my old gallery is gone
and thanks for that BTW

nah, i was just cruising through my Albums now and deleting some older shots
and at one at a time it really starts to hurt the head
i know we had it set up better before, i was wondering why that option was taken away
and if it could be added back in
thanks for your time

ahhhh...

ahhhh...

multiple image deletion is much easier now...


mmmmmmmmm

As long as you're posting new images in the Forum Albums, you won't have a problem deleting them.
