    6263
    6364    <p>Category directories are in the Piwigo directory
    64     "galleries". Here follow the directory tree of a very small gallery (but
     65    "galleries". Here follows the directory tree of a very small gallery (but
    6566    using many features) :</p>
    6667
     
    101102  </li>
    102103 
    103   <li>Basically, a category is represented by a directory at any level in
    104   Piwigo directory "galleries". Each category can contain as many
    105   sub-level as you wish. In the example above, category-1.1.1.1 is at level
    106   4 of deepness.</li>
     104  <li>Each directory under "galleries" produces a category. There is no limit on deepness.</li>
    107105
    108106  <li>Basically, an element is represented by a file. A file can be a
     
    117115
    118116  <li>Picture elements can have a high quality file associated. As for
    119   wedding.jpgin the example above. No prefix on the high quality picture is
    120   required.</li>
     117  wedding.jpg in the example above. No prefix on the high quality picture.</li>
    121118
    122119  <li>Non picture elements (video, sounds, file texts, what you want...) are
     
    129126characters</li>
    130127
    131   <li><em>Advise</em> : a category can contain elements and sub-categories
    132 in the same time. Nerverthless, you are strongly advised for each category
    133 to choose between category containing elements <strong>or</strong> category
    134 containing sub-categories.</li>
    135 
    136128  <li>Once files, thumbnails and representatives are correctly placed in the
    137129  directories, go to : <span class="pwgScreen">Administration, Categories,

    157 <ul>
    158 
    159   <li>As said earlier, each element of picture type must be associated with
    160   a thumbnail.</li>
     133
     134<h3>Thumbnails</h3>
     135<ul>
     136
     137  <li>Each photo must have its thumbnail.</li>
    161138
    162139  <li>Thumbnails are stored in the sub-directory "thumbnail" of the category
    163   directory. The thumbnail is a picture (same filename extensions possible
    164   than picture files) which filename is prefixed by the configured
    165   "Thumbnail prefix" (see admin panel, Configuration, General).</li>
    166 
    167   <li>Thumbnails don't need to have the same extension as their associated
    168   picture (a picture with .jpg extension can have a thumbnail in .GIF
    169   extention for instance).</li>
    170 
    171   <li>Advise: use an external module for thumbnails creation.</li>
    172 
    173   <li>You can also use the thumbnail creation page (<span
    174   class="pwgScreen">Administration, Pictures, Thumbnails</span>), but it is
    175   not recommended. Indeed, thumbnail quality may be poor and it uses a high
    176   CPU load which can be a problem if you use free web hosting.</li>
    177 
    178   <li>If you choose to use your hosting provider to create thumbnails, you
    179   must give write rights on all category directories and sub-directories
    180   "thumbnail" for ugo (user, group, other).</li>
    181 
    182 </ul>

     140  directory. The thumbnail has the same filename as the corresponding photo, with <em>TN-</em> as prefix.</li>
     141
     142  <li><em>Advise</em>: use an external module for thumbnails creation.</li>
     143
     144  <li>Even if it is not recommended (image quality, web server resource load), you can use <span
     145  class="pwgScreen">Administration, Pictures, Thumbnails</span> page to create thumbnails.</li>
     146
     147  <li>Give write access on all category directories.</li>

    201   <li>You can forbid access to categories. Categories can be "public" or
    202   "private". Permissions (for groups and users) can be set only if the
    203   category is private.</li>
     169  <li>You can forbid access to categories. Switch the category access type to "private" if you want to manage permissions.</li>

    249   <li>Piwigo is able to manage groups of users. It can be very useful
    250   to have common permission access for private categories.</li>

    314   <li>Piwigo dissociates categories where elements are stored and
    315   categories where they are shown.</li>
    316 
    317   <li>By default, elements are shown only in their real categories : the
    318   ones corresponding to directories on the web server.</li>
    319 
    320   <li>To link an element to a category, you just have to make the
    321   association on the page of element edition (link to this screen on
    322   picture.php logged as an administrator) or on the informations of all
    323   elements of a category.</li>
    324 
    325   <li>Using this principle, it is possible to create virtual categories : no
    326   directory coresponds to this category. You can create virtual categories
    327   in <span class="pwgScreen">Administration, Categories, Manage</span>.</li>
     276  <li>Photos are displayed in the category corresponding to the file directory.</li>
     277
     278  <li>You can also display a picture in several categories, without duplicating the file on your web server. Associate the photo to any category from the photo editing screen (that any administrator can reach from the photo page on the gallery side).</li>
     279
     280  <li>Virtual categories are based on this concept: they have no corresponding directory. Create virtual categories from <span class="pwgScreen">Administration, Categories, Manage</span>.</li>

    349   in <span class="pwgScreen">Administration panel, Configuration,

    351   same display properties.</li>
