Representant

The album representative is the thumbnail displayed on the main page (category.php) to represent the album when it contains only sub-albums and no direct photo (just as the root album).

• Photo page: 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.
• Modify informations about a photo in administration. This screen can be reached from picture.php or Batch management in unit mode. See the help of this screen for details.
• Administration » Albums » Properties, Representative. See the help of this screen for details.
• Edit album (the present screen).

The choice of a representative depends on the allow_random_representative configuration parameter (see include/config_default.inc.php).

In default mode (allow_random_representative 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 Find a new representant by random.

If the allow_random_representative configuration parameter is set to true, a category containing photos may have no fixed representant. Just use Delete representant button.

If the album contains only sub-albums and no photo, it can nonetheless be represented by any element thanks to Modify informations about a photo screen. The only option on the current screen is the Delete representant button.
