Any news on the sub folder limitation?
It I have stopped using this gallery since I can not organize my gallery properly.

I need to be able to use it like this...

I am not part of the developing crew but I can tell you that you will be able to have subfolders in the upcoming v2 of ImageVue. I am not sure when it will be released since Karl and the others are working very hard to get v2 out with as few bugs as possible. But keep a close eye since I know they are getting closer. But that is all I know. I hope this helps.

I use the following work-around to deal with this limitation (It only works when, like me, you encapsulate the calls to the gallery into HTML web pages). Here it is :

This is quite simple in fact, I organize the hierarchy of the folders the way I want, with the number of level I want. For instance :

/Nature
/Nature/Animals
/Nature/Animals/Birds/
/Nature/Animals/Mammals/
/Nature/Landscape/
/Nature/Landscape/Place1/
/Nature/Landscape/Place2/
/Family/
/Family/Vacations/
/Family/Childrens/
...

Then, inside my HTML web page template which calls the Imagevue Gallery, I set the path as an argument using '?folder='. This way, for each instance of the template I point to the gallery exactly where I want.

An example : to display my set of birds, I will set the path to 'content/Nature/Animals/Birds/' so the HTML web page adress is :
"http://nature.photofolio.eu/?folder=con ... als/Birds/"

Hope this helps ;)
