Description aRTee 2009-09-14 22:44:14 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

Before the change to KDE4, in Digikam the Gallery(2) export plugin would allow to select tags and such, but now (since quite a while), just a file dialog shows up...

Naturally, I want to upload images based on tags, as I used to.

libkipi for KDE3 do not provide a way to select tag folders from host application as digiKam. KDE4 version can do it.

I'm lost by your report. Please provide screenshots to detail.

Gallery export on KDE3 showing "tag" folders

Please see this attachment, made on Mandriva 2008.1 with KDE 3.5.9 and Digikam 0.9.3 (it also says "using Kipi library version 0.1.5") where I have done album => export => remote gallery sync => add photos
which brought me the dialog in this screenshot.

Clearly visible are the "tag" folders.

This is a screenshot of Mandriva 2009.1, and I already tried on cooker with the most recent version available there (and since the first alpha, every so often)...

Same thing, just the file browser to upload images to gallery.

Using Kubuntu with KDE 4.3.2 and kipi-plugins 0.7 with digikam 1.0 beta5!

When I select several images in any view, and want them to export to flickr, facebook, etc. a new dialog appears, where these images are already preselected for uploading!

But if I want these selected images export to gallery2, I have to "Add photos" and then browse to the images in the filesystem - this is just not usable! Please add the same dialog to gallery2 export as in facebook/flickr export.

Thank you for this great work!

I'm totally agree with comment #4.

KipiPlugins::ImageList widget must be used in Gallery tool. And it's the same problem in PicasaWeb.

Any volumteer there ? There is already a lot of code in kipi tools to get inspiration as flickr, Smug, facebook, which aready use this widget as well...

Using the kipiplugins (1.3.0) and digiKam (1.3.0) from Mandriva 2010.1 this month - over a year later/newer - still nothing has been done to fix this. I would appreciate it if this bug could at least have its status changed... It's clear that others also face this issue.
Otherwise, for others in the same trouble, my current workaround is to first copy all tagged images to a new folder, then upload all photos in that folder to the Gallery server.

Artee,

This file still valid using kipi-plugins 2.4 ?

The fix for https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=134222 renders this one moot.
