Hello,
I have my gallery configured so user can add new albums as sub album to their personnal one.
Is there a way I can override the root gallery controller so it will display main/sub album indictinctivly ?
Something Like this :

-Main Gallery
----Album1
----Album2
----Sub-Album1
----Sub-album2
----Album3
etc...

Thanks a lot!

I need a better user story and/or graphic to understand what you are after.

How about the user_homes module?

user_homes let user define what root gallery display when they log in, that's not exactly what I'm after.

What I would like is to have all albums displays by creation date regardless their position in the tree structure.

Something like a "SQL 'SELECT * FROM item WHERE type=album ORDER by creation_date" so album and sub album would display side by side.

I think I can maybe achieve that by modifying the organize module, but I admit I'm quite confused by the complexity of it, so I was hoping their was a simpler way to achieve that.

Hope it makes sense

If that's the goal, why make them subalbums in the first place? Can't you just move the albums so that they're all in the root album (and thus at the same level)?
