"add to beginning of album" using gallery remote?

Does this new version of gallery (1.4) and gallery remote support the new "add to beginning of album" option that has been around since 1.3.5?

When 1.3.5 came out I set this option for my moblog album, but it did not work unless uploading with the web interface.

Good question. We'll look into this, thanks for reporting it. It's now tracked by this task.

I am using fresh Gallery remote on Gallery 1.4 pl2 and altough i checked in ablums properties to add images at the beginning, images uploaded via Gallery remote are positioned at the end of the album.
Any ideas why?

Of course I tried, uploading directly via gallery ba "add photos" link uploads them correctly at the beginning of album.

Same problem here as well :cry:

I just tested this and I get the same thing. Using GR just downloaded and built out of cvs and gallery 1.4pl2

alright, I've tracked down what is causing this,

this isn't technically a gallery remote issue and it is fixed in gallery 1.4.1...

for those who care why, read on:

gallery_remote2.php calls the gallery function addPhoto(), this function is in the gallery/classes/album.php file. at the end of that function, just before the return, in gallery 1.4.1, it has this bit of code:

	       	/*move to the beginning if needed */
	       	if ($this->getAddToBeginning() ) {
		       	$this->movePhoto($this->numPhotos(1), 0);
	       	}

this is missing in 1.4 and adding it in DOES fix the problem...

are you adding the code in the albums.php file? or gallery_remote2.php file? it should go in the first...

this is what the new addPhoto, in albums.php, should look like with the 3 lines added(taken starting at line 673)

    $this->photos[] = $item;

    /* If this is the only photo, make it the highlight */
    if ($this->numPhotos(1) == 1 && !$item->isMovie()) {
      $this->setHighlight(1);
    }

    /*move to the beginning if needed */
    if ($this->getAddToBeginning() ) {
      $this->movePhoto($this->numPhotos(1), 0);
    }

    return 0;
  }

this causes no problems whatsoever for me and adds the picture to the beginning of the album. I can attach my albums.php if you want.

but, due to the way GR adds photos one at a time, if you're adding more than one image, the images end up in reverse order of what you'd probably expect. not sure how to fix this....
but I'd guess everything works properly with 1.4.1??? at least according to ozgreg anyway.

Thank you very much.
This works now as it is supposed to for me.

oh boy, I've really really got myself confused :roll: had a message typed saying web interface uploads in reverse order, then tested in another of my galleries, found it uploaded my 2 test pictures in proper order, forgot which gallery I modified with updated code from this thread, typed a message about how the web interface uploads in correct order, then decided to test with more than 2 pictures, and things got ended up in a really strange order. Finally realized that was the Gallery I modified :-? ...

Anyway... seems adding via the web interface also uploads in reverse order on an unmodified 1.4 gallery and my change suggested earlier causes GR to add the same way the web interface does in an unmodified install, but messes up the web interface...

so, if I have this sorted out in my mind, using GR with:
-unmodified gallery 1.4 leads to not uploading at beginning of album
-gallery1.4 modified with above code leads to GR uploading properly, web interface messed up

I'll upgrade one of my installs to 1.4.1 RC3 later and test there. And if it works properly, I don't think any changes will need to be made in GR...

Hehe which explains why the feature was working fine for me as I was running the testing on 1.4.1 ;) and yes Gallery 1.4.1 is an excellent upgrade.. I love the concept of setting the image max size and I cannot wait until Gallery remote supports this feature!! (Hint Hint)
