What do you mean "change the display list"? You mean sorting order? ... or you mean simply you want to play different mp3s for each folder?

This option I saw in your demo website:
https://www.photo.gallery/demo/x2/#/content/ ... diofolder/
I want to do the same thing for all my main folders which appears in my menu.

For example, People interesting for wedding want to hear love songs, people interested by kids want to hear sleeping baby songs, models interested by fashion photoshoots want to hear only ambiental/buddhabar songs.

So for this I want to be able to specify the songs that will appear in the list as a parameter to a main folder with photos.

You can upload the mp3 files along with the images and switch Settings > Audioplayer > UseImageFolder on.

This will make Imagevue to play mp3s from the folder users are looking at, it won't work with subfolders though.

Here is the thing:

My main menu contains a node called Weddings (Nunti) and that node contains 8 folders based on wedding moments... the photo session, the reception, etc.
Weddings node does not contain images, and If I copy images on it, songlist changes, but when I click a sub-node (moment-of-the-wedding folder) the songlist changes back to initial state.
If I want those songs to play in every subfolder of weddings, I must copy the whole songlist to each 8 subfolders, so my website will store 8 files instead of one song..

Is there another way? or must I wait until the next update of imagevuex :P

I have tried to copy a link to the original mp3 in the folder where I want the same song to play, but it doesn't work

As long as you put images in a folder, it will load when it is clicked in the menu. We normally do not recommend having images in a folder that also has subfolders, because we think it is misleading to have a folder load while also displaying subfolders ... This is up to you though.

As long as you are using use_imagefolder=true, Imagevue will always look for mp3 files in the currently viewed folder. If there is no mp3 in that folder, it will load tracks from the default "mp3" folder ... (if there are any)

I agreed with your solution and I decided to copy a different song to each folder. Thanks very much for your quick and smart answer
