Photographers Favorites - Front End

If a photo is marked as a Photographers Favorite on the back end, in a gallery, is there a way to display this to the client on the front end? As a client browses a gallery, I'd like to be able to designate which ones have been designated as Photographers Favorites.

I know I can move these to a separate sub-gallery, but I'm wondering if there's the option to show these selected images as starred or "Photographers Favorites" or some other visual representation. Thanks!

Is there a way to add the visual differentiation of Photographers Favorites to the existing gallery mode, without enabling Gallery Exclusive Mode? I like everything else about the existing mode but just want to show the Photographers Favorites in some way on the front end.

The star indicator still shows on the photos without using gallery exclusive mode, but currently the option for a photographer favorites link isn't available without using gallery exclusive.

Gotcha. How do I enable the Favorites Settings Globally, and not just on individual galleries? Ex the "Show star on photographer favorite photos" and the star text? I think this is the one piece I am missing.

And final question on this, is there a way for the Admin to download or export a list of images marked as Photographers Favorites?

The photography favorites settings are taken from the last gallery you used them on. So when you create a new gallery it uses the settings from the last gallery as the default.

There is not a way to download or export the photographer favorites.

Sounds good. Thank you!

Hi Tim

The "Photographer Favorite" option is great, thank you. It would be very useful to have an option to:

1. Download a list of the "photographer favourite" images, or at least to create a list which can be copied/viewed
2. "Buy All Photographer Favorite Images" - an option for the client to buy all would be fab.
Are the above feasible?

Best

If you use Gallery Exclusive Mode , while in the Photos tab for the gallery in the admin click the Favorites Settings tab next to the Photographer Favorites tab and you can check the option to Show photographer favorites when gallery is opened. This will display just the photographer favorites at first.

But there is no option to download a list of photographer favorites or buy all favorites.

Active topic!

I was wondering if there's a way within the custom CSS to adjust other aspects of the appearance - perhaps to add a frame (say, a heavier outline) to the ones marked as photographer favourites. The small star is pretty subtle.

My absolute ideal would be to make my photographer's favourite ones bigger in the thumbnail display so they really stand out. That might make a mess of the page layout though, I'm not sure...
