-<h2>Edit album</h2>
-
-<h3>Informations</h3>
-
-<ul>
-
- <li><strong>name</strong>: rename the album (a virtual rename in case
- of a physical album).</li>
-
- <li><strong>description</strong>: short text giving a general idea of the content,
- this text will be displayed at the bottom of the thumbnails page.</li>
-
-</ul>
-
-<h3>Move</h3>
-
-<p>If the album is virtual, you can move it. Moving a album means
-changing its parent album.</p>
-
-<h3>Options</h3>
-
-<ul>
-
- <li><strong>Access type</strong>: Permissions management. If you make a
- album private, all its child albums becomes private. If you make a
- album public, all its parent albums becomes public.</li>
-
- <li><strong>Lock</strong>: The album and its sub-albums will
- be temporary disabled for maintenance.</li>
-
- <li><strong>Comments</strong>: Authorize users to comment photos of this
- album.</li>
-
-</ul>
-
-<p>You can also manage these options on the "Properties"
-management screen (screens <span
-class="pwgScreen">Comments</span>, <span class="pwgScreen">Lock</span>,
-<span class="pwgScreen">Public/Private</span>, <span
-class="pwgScreen">Representative</span> available from <span
-class="pwgScreen">Administration &raquo; Albums &raquo; Properties</span>).</p>
-
-<h3>Sort order</h3>
-
-<p>Use the default images sort order.</p>
-
-<p>Indicate whether this sort order will apply to subalbums also.</p>
-
-<p>Select specific sorting criteria to be used with this album.</p>
-<ul>
-<li><strong>Creation date</strong>: Photo shooting date</li>
-<li><strong>Post date</strong>: Synchronization date</li>
-<li><strong>Average rate (*)</strong>: Average rate could be changed by the visitor rating</li>
-<li><strong>Most visited (*)</strong>: The current visit might change the most visited order</li>
-<li><strong>File name</strong>: Name given in information field</li>
-<li><strong>Id</strong>: Internal Id (recent categories have an higher id than previous ones.</li>
-
-</ul>
-<p><strong>(*)</strong>Warning: Be sure to test these sort orders by yourself as they can give unexpected results.</p>
-
-
-<h3>Representant</h3>
-
-<p>The album representative is the thumbnail displayed on the main page (<span class="pwgScreen">category.php</span>) to represent
-the album when
-it contains only sub-albums and no direct photo (just as the root album).</p>
-photo of a album :</p>
-
-<ul>
-
- <li><span class="pwgScreen">Photo page</span>: one of the action buttons let you set the current photo as the representative for the
- displayed album. This button is available only for administrators.</li>
-
- <li><span class="pwgScreen">Modify informations about a photo</span> in
- administration. This screen can be reached from <span
- class="pwgScreen">picture.php</span> or <span class="pwgScreen">Batch
- management</span> in <em>unit mode</em>. See the help of this screen for
- details.</li>
-
- <li><span class="pwgScreen">Administration &raquo; Albums &raquo; Properties,
- Representative</span>. See the help of this screen for details.</li>
-
- <li><span class="pwgScreen">Edit album</span> (the present screen).</li>
-
-</ul>
-
-<p>The choice of a representative depends on the
-<code>allow_random_representative</code> configuration parameter (see <span
-class="filename">include/config_default.inc.php</span>).</p>
-
-<p>In default mode (<code>allow_random_representative</code> set to false),
-each album containing at least one element is represented by a fixed
-element. Once set (at album creation), the representative changes only
-when an administrator ask for it. If the representative is not appropriate,
-you can ask to <strong>Find a new representant by random</strong>.</p>
-
-<p>If the <code>allow_random_representative</code> configuration parameter is
-set to true, a category containing photos may have no fixed
-representant. Just use <strong>Delete representant</strong> button.</p>
-
-<p>If the album contains only sub-albums and no photo, it can nonetheless be represented by any element thanks to <span class="pwgScreen">Modify
-informations about a photo</span> screen. The only option on the current screen
-is the <strong>Delete representant</strong> button.</p>
-
-<h3>Link all album photos to a new album</h3>
-
-<ul>
-
-<li><strong>Virtual album name</strong>: Name of the new album to be created,
-all photos of the current category will be linked to the new one.</li>
-
-<li><strong>Parent album</strong>: Where the new album will be,
-leave empty to create it at root.</li>
-
-</ul>
-
-<h3>Link all album photos to existing albums</h3>
-
-<ul>
-
-<li><strong>Albums</strong>: Choose the destination album.</li>

-<h2>Template Extension Configuration</h2>
-
-<h3>About</h3>
-<p>Your Piwigo gallery can be customised by replacing existing template files with customised versions. For example, the default header template (header.tpl) can be replaced by a customised header template (my-header.tpl). After submitting the changes to the database the gallery will display the customised header instead of the original header.<br>
-Template extensions are a powerful way to create customised themes for both new and advanced users. Used together with the LocalFiles Editor you can create your own child themes.</p>
-
-<h3>Original Template</h3>
-<p>A theme contains a number of template files that make up the gallery pages. These are the original templates.</p>
-
-<h3>Optional URL Keyword</h3>
-<p>These are words found in the gallery URL after the module name. They can also be active permalinks (See the permalink documentation for more information). <a href="#warnings">WARNING:</a> if the same original template and same keyword is used on more than one customised template only the last one is active.</p>
-
-<h3>Bound Theme</h3>
-<p>The bound theme is the theme from which the template files are being replaced.</p>
-
-<h3>Where are the original templates?</h3>
-<p>Original templates are the template files shipped with each theme. These are saved in <em>/themes/default/template</em> (or <em>themes/<theme name>/template</em>). These template files should not be edited in place as changes will be lost with theme upgrades.<br>
-Supported original templates include:</p>
-<ul>
- <li><span class="filename">index.tpl</span></li>
- <li><span class="filename">mainpage_categories.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">thumbnails.tpl</span></li>
- <li><span class="filename">menubar.tpl</span></li>
- <li><span class="filename">header.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">footer.tpl</span></li>
- <li><span class="filename">picture_content.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">picture.tpl</span></li>
- <!-- <li><span class="filename">slideshow.tpl</span></li> -->
- <li><span class="filename">profile.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">profile_content.tpl</span></li>
- <li><span class="filename">tags.tpl</span></li>
- <li><span class="filename">upload.tpl</span></li>
- <li><span class="filename">about.tpl</span></li>
- <li><span class="filename">popuphelp.tpl</span></li>
- <li><span class="filename">search.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">search_rules.tpl</span></li>
- <li><span class="filename">nbm.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">notification.tpl</span></li>
- <li><span class="filename">identification.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">register.tpl</span></li>
- <li><span class="filename">redirect.tpl</span></li>
-</ul>
-<h3>Saving customised templates</h3>
-<p>Customised templates should be saved in the template-extension folder or subfolders. For example, <em>/template-extension/my-default/header.tpl</em> (or <em>/template-extension/<my-theme-name>/header.tpl</em>) Template files can have any name with a .tpl extension. The template files in subfolders appear in the Template configuration screen as available custom templates.</p>
-<h3>Activating customised templates</h3>
-<p>Select the original template to replace. Optionally choose a URL keyword to ensure that the customised template is only shown on pages with that keyword. Select a bound theme and the changes will be effective on that theme. Submit the changes to the database.</p>
-<h3>Deactivating customised templates</h3>
-<p>Unselect the original template and submit the changes to the database.<br>
-Delete the customised template files from the template-extension folder.</p>
-
-<a name="warnings"></a>
-<h3>Warnings</h3>
-<ul>
- <li><strong>The original template</strong> must be the original template otherwise you may have unpredictable results.</li>
- <li>If the same original template and same URL keyword is used on more than one customised template only the last one is active.</li>
- <li>Distributed sample template files are for test purposes only. Do not edit them. Create your own ones or copy existing theme template files into <em>/template-extension/<my-theme>/</em></li>
- <li>When the customised template is deleted the original template file is immediately reactivated.</li>

-<legend>Permissions on photos</legend>
-
-<p>Each photo has a <strong>privacy level</strong> (a lock). Each user also has a privacy level (a key). There are 5 privacy levels:</p>
-<ol>
- <li>None</li>
- <li><em>Contacts</em></li>
- <li><em>Friends (which is higher than a contact)</em></li>
- <li><em>Family (which is higher than a friend)</em></li>
- <li><em>Admins (which is higher than any other level)</em></li>
-</ol>
-
-<p>Higher levels have permissions on lower levels. For a given user, the higher the privacy level, the more photos he can see.</p>
-
-<p>For example, if photo "peter_wedding-0024.jpg" has <em>"Family"</em> privacy level, then:</p>
-<ul>
- <li>Peter (who is an <em>"Admin"</em>) will see the photo because <em>"Admins"</em> can see all photos</li>
- <li>Beth (who is a <em>"Family"</em> member) will also see the photo</li>
- <li>Mary (who is just a <em>"Friend"</em>) won't see the photo</li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>A user that has no permission to see the content of a album won't see the album itself, not even its title. The same principle applies to a tag.</p>
-
-<p>You can set the privacy level of a user on <span class="pwgScreen">Administration &raquo; Users &raquo; Manage</span> screen.</p>
-
-</fieldset>
-
-<fieldset>
-<legend>Permissions on albums</legend>
-
-<p>If privacy levels do not fit your needs, you can also manage permissions on albums for a user or a group. You can manage permissions on photos and albums at the same time, without conflict.</p>
-
-<p>You can forbid access to albums. Switch the album access type to
-"private" if you want to manage permissions.</p>
-
-<p>You can set a album to private by editing a single album
-(<span class="pwgScreen">Administration &raquo; Albums &raquo; Manage
-&raquo; edit</span>) or by setting options to your whole album tree
-(<span class="pwgScreen">Administration &raquo; Albums &raquo;
-Properties &raquo; Public / Private</span>).</p>
-
-<p>Once the album is private, you can manage permissions for groups and

-<h2>Maintenance</h2>
-
-<p>To optimise page generation time Piwigo uses cached information. For example, instead of counting the number of photos contained in each album at each page reload this information is stored in the database. In theory this information should always be correct but sometimes an error can occur and cached information becomes out of date.</p>
-
-<p>Some information becomes less useful as time goes by. Deleting this useless information from the database will save you some disk space.</p>
-
-<ul>
- <li><strong>Delete orphan tags</strong></li>
-</ul>
-<ul>
- <li><strong>Update albums informations:</strong> For each album, the following information is checked, and updated if necessary : list of parent albums, number of photos, last photo date, position among brother albums, position among all albums. This action also checks the representative photos consistency.</li>
- <li><strong>Update photos information:</strong> For each photo, information updated is : full path to file, average rate. <em>Warning</em>, do not mix up: metadata information must be synchronised from <span class="pwgScreen">Administration &raquo; Tools &raquo; synchronise</span>, or on the modification screen of a single photo (through <span class="pwgScreen">Photo</span> for example).</li>
-</ul>
-<ul>
- <li><strong>Repair and optimise the database:</strong>Perform re-order, repair and optimise operations on each table of the database.</li>
- <li><strong>Reinitialize integrity check</strong></li>
-</ul>
-
-<ul>
- <li><strong>Purge history details:</strong> Delete all lines from the history table. Screen <span class="pwgScreen">Administration &raquo; Tools &raquo; History</span> will not longer show information for the past history. <em>Warning:</em> all data will be lost, without any way to get them back.</li>
- <li><strong>Purge history summary:</strong> Delete all the summary information about visit history. This summary is calculated from the history details.</li>
- <li><strong>Purge sessions:</strong> Delete expired user sessions.</li>
- <li><strong>Purge never used notification feeds</strong></li>
- <li><strong>Purge searches history</strong></li>
- <li><strong>Purge compiled templates</strong></li>

-<h2>Permalinks</h2>
-
-<p>Permalinks are used to make album urls nicer. When a album has a permalink defined, the id of the album is not required anymore in the url.</p>
-
-<p>When a permalink is deleted, you can save it in the permalink history, so that external links to Piwigo pages still work. In the permalink history table you can see the date when the permalink has been deleted, the last time it was used and the number of times this permalink has been used.</p>
-
-<p>Note that permalinks must be unique per album. Also in the permalink history you cannot have the same permalink defined more than once.</p>

-
- </li>
-
- <li>Except for "pwg_representative" (see explanations below), each directory under "galleries" produces a album. There is no limit on deepness.</li>
-
- <li>Basically, an element is represented by a file. A file can be a
- Piwigo element if its extension is among <code>file_ext</code>
- configuration parameter possibilities (see <span
- class="filename">include/config_default.inc.php</span> file). A file can
- be a picture if its extension is among <code>picture_ext</code>
- configuration parameter possibilities.</li>
-
- <li>No photo elements (video, sounds, file texts, whatever you want...) are represented by default by an icon corresponding to the filename
- extension. Optionally, you can associate a thumbnail and a representative
- file (see video.avi in the example above).</li>
-
- <li><em>Warning</em>: the name of directories and files must contain only letters, figures, "-", "_" or ".". No blank space, nor accentuated characters.</li>
-
- <li>Once photos are correctly placed in the
- directories, go to: <span class="pwgScreen">Administration &raquo; Tools &raquo;

-<h2>Synchronise</h2>

-<ul>
- <li>directories/files</li>
- <li>file metadata</li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>Synchronising directories and files is about updating your directories tree with the album tree in the database.
-Synchronising file metadata is about updating photo information, such as filesize, dimensions in pixels, EXIF or IPTC information, in the database.</p>
-
-<p>When synchronising your uploads with your gallery you must first synchronise directories and files.</p>
-
-<p>The synchronisation process may take a long time (depending on server load and the number of elements to manage) so it is possible to do it album by album.</p> \ No newline at end of file
