Tidypics

I have ELGG 1.9 - I'd like to know if there is any development in the makings for the ability to bulk move pictures around. For example, i have users log in and immediately upload pictures. Not realizing they need to go to the relevant group for which the pictures are intended. Then they upload the pictures again - and now we have duplicates. I'm happy to move them. Downloading them, deleting them and uploading them is quite tedious. 

  • The Containers plugin (https://elgg.org/plugins/1211419) might be what you are looking for.

  • Thank you. I believe this will work, except I don't think I have it working yet. Where is the support group for this? I found one for version .3. Erk!

    I have Elgg 1.9 and my primary interest is to organize the pictures.

    and here is my my plugin says about Containers.

    Containers 0.92

    allows entities to be assigned to groups/containers - such that they can be moved from one group to another. also adds a label to entity description outputs to show which group the entity is contained by.

    • For Elgg 1.9 I think you have to use version 0.7 of the Containers plugin.

      The pages_tool plugin listed in the requirements of the Containers plugin is only a suggestion and not a mandatory requirement.

      If you have questions about the Containers plugin, best way is to post it directly on the Container plugin page (as comment to the version of the plugin you use).
