Hi! I’ve posted on photofield here before - my self-hosted photo gallery software. There’s been a bunch of changes since last time that you can check out in the CHANGELOG, but this is my first attempt to write about why I made it and how it’s different! Any feedback is welcome!

    I tried photofield and I loved it. What was missing for me was folder view! If it will be ever added, I will switch immediately.

        All my photos are sorted into albums, i always browse them by album.

        Don’t care for “explorer like” but I need to see them as the albums they are part of, like all together in the same view, and be able to select which album/albums I want to look at

          Hmm, I’m not sure I understand exactly. By default it uses each subfolder as an album / collection that you can pick on the home page. You can also configure custom collections/albums consisting of arbitrary directories. You could also configure e.g. an “all” collection with all the photos combined by listing the root directory(s). Is that what you meant?
