what code would need to be edited so when I add a new album to my gallery the directory name and internet address are automatically lower case rather than currently being upper case. I know it's silly, but I like having my gallery structure uniform. for example: if I create an album called Test Photos, I want it to create the directory name and internet address as test-photos as opposed to Test-Photos. |

I believe you'd need to edit /modules/gallery/controllers/albums.php I think...
name = "directory name"
slug = "internet address"
/modules/gallery/helpers/album.php appears to help do some of the form validation, but I think controllers/albums.php is where you can take the input of "Test-Photos" and change the string to lower case.

I'm going to (eventually) do the same thing. Let me know if you get it working.

I see the code you're referring to, but I have 0 clue as to what to change in the code to make it lower case. I'm php dumb!

Perhaps tempg can provide more guidance, especially if he creates a module for it, but it's not a change I'm all the interested in making so I'm not all the interested in spending a lot of time using my method of "coding by trial and error" as it's time consuming.

If you know any programming at all in any language that should help get you started. I'd start throwing that php function at a few variables to see what happens. Always keep a backup of the unmodified, original file
