Disable title field on Multiple Files Flash Driven upload option?

[crl]

I am trying to disable the title field when members are uploading images.

The "Simple one file at a time" is sorted, deleted the line

Code Select Expand

array($lang_upload_php['pic_title'], 'title', 0, 255, 1),
in the upload.php

However the "Multiple Files - Flash Driven" upload option still displays the title field.  Any idea on how to remove the title field on this upload option?

The flash uploader redirects to editpics.php. This file is also used to edit all files of an album. Do you want to disable that field completely, or just after the flash upload?

Just want to delete the "Title" field only after the images have been uploaded.  I want to retain the description field

Please apply that mod: http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,73826.msg356029.html#msg356029

Then (if it works as expected) we can check for the newly added parameter newer_than and remove the title field. So please confirm if the other mod works as expected.

Added the script change.
But the multi flash upload option still shows the title field after the photo is uploaded.

Of course it will still show the title field. Please read the other thread what those changes are supposed to do. It's important that you'll find the newer_than parameter in the URLs after the flash upload, as we need it for your request:

In the meantime Phill already confirmed that the mod (only show pictures from the last flash upload) works for him. If it also works for you, apply the following changes:

Open editpics.php, find

Code Select Expand

$data = array(
    array($icon_array['file_info'] . $lang_editpics_php['pic_info'], '', 3),
    array($icon_array['album'] . $lang_common['album'], 'aid', 1),
    array($icon_array['title'] . $lang_common['title'], 'title', 0, 255),
    array($icon_array['description'] . $captionLabel, 'caption', 2, $CONFIG['max_img_desc_length']),
    array($icon_array['keyword'] . $keywordLabel, 'keywords', 0, 255),
    array($CONFIG['user_field1_name'], 'user1', 0, 255),
    array($CONFIG['user_field2_name'], 'user2', 0, 255),
    array($CONFIG['user_field3_name'], 'user3', 0, 255),
    array($CONFIG['user_field4_name'], 'user4', 0, 255),
);
and below, add

Code Select Expand

if ($superCage->get->keyExists('newer_than')) {
    unset($data[2]);
}

find

Code Select Expand

$title       = get_post_var('title', $pid);
and replace with

Code Select Expand

$title       = $superCage->get->keyExists('newer_than') ? '' : get_post_var('title', $pid);

find

Code Select Expand

$update .= ", title = '$title'";
and replace with

Code Select Expand

//$update .= ", title = '$title'";

Noticed that I still have a few problems.

After the image has been uploaded, if Edit File Information is used the title field is still available.  How do I remove this field completely?

Another question, is it possible to make the Description Field to be completed compulsory when uploading an image?

So we have to start from scratch. Undo all changes from this thread (or at least all changes from that post), open editpics.php, find

Thanks for the updated code.
Before I try out the new code is the description field mandatory with this new code?
