I just saw another member had organized their NSXPrime Gallery into sub-categories - I had not realized you could do this until then, but now see that it is easy to create individual albums and makes for much better management and categorization.

The problem I'm now having is in organizing the existing photo's into the individual albums - I can only find so far method for relocating one picture at a time.
Even that does not work smoothly - using the "edit photo" & "change category" I get a script error as result (although the picture does actually move to the new category) .

I've reported the script error directly to admins to review.

Can anyone suggest an easy way to manage the albums & re-categorize multiples as opposed to relocating one image at a time? :confused:

Oh - one more important question - what happens to images in existing posts where an image has been linked from prior location in the gallery, when it is relocated to the new album?
Edit - let me answer this last question myself - no surprise, it doesn't know they moved (or where to) so result is red x's in the original post. That will put a bit of a dampener on the re-categorization idea as majority of the images I upload are with the purpose of including in a thread somewhere

Regarding the SQL error, there was a database glitch. I fixed it, but I think the move feature may actually be a little buggy because I was able to make it fail again. I fixed it again but it may break again. Oh well.

I don't know of an easier way to recategorize select files. It has a feature on the admin side to move entire folders around but not to (easily) tag certain pictures within a folder/album and move them to another folder/album.

The Photopost software we're running is kind of old. I know there have been some updates released. I'll take a look and probably try to get us updated soon. Hopefully it'll fix the move glitch as well as offer some more user friendly album management features.
