OK Guys, I'm new to Mambo, Gallery and PHP. I've got a new site setup with almost everything I need and I'm EXTREMELY happy with Mambo. I run an Owners Association for a vintage brand of boats. On my old site, "members" would send me pictures of their boats and I would build a static page to display them. I know, that's stupid and archaic but that's why I'm here. Anyway, I had everything categorized according to the state they were in. Here is a link to show you how it looked, try the California section first: http://www.classicglasspars.com/members%20boats/members.htm Anyway, I would love to be able to create categories just like that in Gallery2. Even better would be to have Gallery auto create the members album, as it already can do, but look at my modified registration data and create it in the correct "state" category. Again, I'm new to php so I'm looking to you guys for help. I could probably even pay for some custom development. I am using the Advanced Registration component with a custom field for the State so there is already data to look at for customization. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! glassparman |

That's about it in a nutshell. My members like to view other members boats in their area. I now have over 200 galleries to create for the new Mambo site and it's best to categorize them by state. They have local "chapter" outings and the state organization works best. As I said before, it would be great to have it create their gallery by the state that they are registered with using the advanced registration component. thanks, :D |
