CRG Assign Albums to Client
Just wondering if there would be a way to add the slug or some more identifiable feature than just the album name when assigning albums to a client in the CRG back end. I name albums by first name and the template takes care of the rest for page name, but if I shoot two people with the same name...you can see the problem I'll have when assigning albums to clients.

Re: CRG Assign Albums to Client
Thanks for the suggestion. There isn't currently a way of showing something more unique. I've added this to my CRG to-do list, to work on for the next feature update.

Re: CRG Assign Albums to Client
I'd like to see this feature added, too. I have multiple albums just called selection_gallery and download_gallery. Each pair (selection_gallery and download_gallery) are in Album Set folders that are named according to the project. So unless I change the album names, there will be just a list like below for each client.
selection_gallery
download_gallery
selection_gallery
download_gallery
etc
Just thought, it also means I can't migrate my CE3 albums... I'll have to start over and give each album a different name.
Request for slug to appear in the assign-albums-to-client page instead of album title.

Re: CRG Assign Albums to Client
I've put this together. I had planned to make a silent update, but with the number of lines involved (about 100), we need to test this further before releasing. Does this look useful?

Re: CRG Assign Albums to Client
Are 'Album Two', 'CRG Album One' and 'CRG Album Three' based on the slugs, Ben, or just the Album Title without hyphens?
And when listed on the 'Albums assigned to you' page for each client, what would the list of links look like?
Thanks.

Re: CRG Assign Albums to Client
They are the album titles. The second line is made up of slugs. What links are those? The second line is just text.

Re: CRG Assign Albums to Client
I think I'll just change the Album name and Album Title to something unique to the project while keeping the slugs the same for the two galleries (selection_gallery and download_gallery) in each Album Set named after a particular project. I think that'll work.
So for each client, the list will be something like
Project 1 selection gallery
Project 1 download gallery
Project 2 selection gallery
Project 2 download gallery
and so on

Re: CRG Assign Albums to Client
The second line includes the full path, so will be unique to each client/project/album combination.
