I'd like a feature for admin to move files into individual users gallery. As I can find I (admin) can only upload files into albums in categories (and in admin's own user gallery).
Moving files between individual users usergalleries would also be great. (I don't think that's possible aither)
These features should of course only be available for admin, and used with the users permission...

I for one would find these features useful.

you're right, admin should be able to do anything without restriction. We're on the way for cpg1.3.0, but the "barrier" between user galleries and public ones mustn't exist for the admin. Made a note on my todo list for future versions...

I have found this problem aswell, however I have noticed that if you go into batch add pictures, yo u are able to select the private galleries from the drop down menu, and add/move the pictures y ou wish to a prvate gallery.

Sort of a relatd question.

If a user happens to upload a picture into the wrong album. How would I be able to move it the the correct album.
The only possibilty I found so far is to delete the picture and upload it again.
Could be I missed something...

You(admin) can move any pic from any album to another, by clicking on the 'edit pics' button, next to the album thumb, or by clicking on 'edit description' under the picture.
It has been a long time now since I did my little bit here, and have done no coding or any other such stuff since. I'm back to being a noob here

Not "any" album I'm afraid. Admin can't move files into useralbums. Those albums are not listed in the dropdownlist...

urm, yes - you're right. Untill recently, there has been a border between the public part of the gallery and the userpics. With cpg1.3.0, you can move pics from userpics to the public part, but not vice versa. In a future version maybe... For the moment, you'll have to directly manipulate your database (using a tool like phpMyAdmin).

Not strictly true, though it does show a difference between different methods.

When using editpics.php, the dropdown list includes the personal album of the person who uploaded the pic, so it can be moved to the pic owners personal album, but no-one elses.

When using editOnepic, the dropdown list does not show this album, but the admins own personal album.

I will look into this.
