Delete behavior option

[dbox]

It would be nice to have a config option to control the behavior
of deleting a photo.

Right now, the photo is deleted from the album (database entries)
and the original photo jpgs are deleted.  It would be nice to be able
to just delete the photo from an album without deleting the jpg.
This would be really useful for those of us using Coppermine
to provide access to a long-term photo archive.

I've already done this at my gallery, here is how to alter the code if you want to remove user deletions yourself:

Open delete.php, look for:

Code Select Expand


if (is_file($currFile)) {
            if (@unlink($currFile))
                echo $green;
            else
                echo $red;
        } else
            echo " ";
        echo "</td>";


Replace it with:

Code Select Expand


echo $green;
echo "</td>";
