I am new to PixelPost, I am wondering if it is possible to:

- load several images with the copy folder and have them all associated with an existing category? Right now it seems I have to edit every single image to add it to a category and this is not very easy with hundreds of pictures

- set an option to turn the image names off if I don't want to display things like DSC2345.jpg? (I know I can edit the template); set an option on to display the image titles after I add them in the admin panel

- create separate albums with images stored in separate folders; right now it seems that all are loaded in the same images folder, this can get very hard to manage with hundreds of pictures

- delete an entire group of pictures in a category without having to delete them one by one

This is all a default installation on a local PC.

no, if you want this you should write another ADDON or modify this ADDON ;=)

no, for this because it can be done in the template it should be done in the template, don't make things too complicated!

you are right, it uses one folder. That's what it is meant for.

But:
for this you can install PixelPost to different folders and give each installation another database-prefix in pixelpost.php


- delete an entire group of pictures in a category without having to delete them one by one

no, you must delete one by one

it could be a suggestion to have checkboxes there and to delete all checked images

but in the moment you must do it manually
