Severity: wishlist
Version: 2.6.0
Priority: NOR

Summary: Create inerface for changing physical location or path
of album
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux
Reporter:

Hardware: Other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Component: general
Product: digikam
The current problem is that if the digikam user want to move an album to a
different path from the root of the device its currently on, or to a different
device, digikam will show the album with a red 'x' indicating that the path
does not exist. The user could delete the album and create another using the
new path, however I'm not sure if that has undesired side effects and it will
potentially take a long time to scan all the album photos.
This is "easily" fixed (for a knowledgeable user) by updating the database by
hand, namely the identifier column and/or specificPath column of the AlbumRoots
table needs to be updated. This should be allowed by the UI so that everyone
has a chance to do this.
I suggest having an edit icon button which pops up a file chooser dialog for
the user to select the new location of the album. The FHS path should be all
that is needed to figure out the needed column values.
