## Beskrivelse

DarkUploader closes the gap between Darktable and WordPress. Edit your photos in
Darktable, select your target gallery / library, export them, and they land in WordPress
ready to publish.

**How it works**

 1. Edit your photos in Darktable as usual.
 2. Export them with the [DarkWP companion script](https://github.com/dans-art/darkwp/releases)
    for Darktable.
 3. Pick a target gallery and export. DarkUploader receives the images over a REST 
    endpoint on your site and puts them in the default folders.

DarkUploader requires the free DarkWP script to be installed in Darktable to upload
the photos. DarkUploader is the WordPress side that receives it.

#### Supported galleries

 * WordPress Media Library
 * NextGEN Gallery
 * Meow Gallery
 * FooGallery

Every upload can carry a title, alt text, description, and caption, though which
of those fields are used depends on what the target gallery plugin itself supports.

#### Features

 * One-click export from Darktable straight into WordPress
 * Upload into an existing gallery, or create a new one on the fly
 * Per-image title, alt text, caption, description, and tags with placeholder support
 * Batch uploads
 * Configurable maximum upload size
 * Upload history and statistics, with configurable log retention
 * Extensible adapter system for adding support for other gallery plugins

#### For developers

DarkUploader ships with an adapter system so you can register support for a gallery
plugin it doesn’t cover out of the box:

 * `darkuploader_supported_galleries` — filter to register your own gallery adapter.

## Installasjon

 1. Install and activate DarkUploader like any other WordPress plugin (Plugins > Add
    New, or by uploading the zip file).
 2. Go to Media > DarkUploader and choose which gallery plugin(s) DarkUploader is allowed
    to upload to. By default, no target is active. Make sure to select at least one
    target before exporting.
 3. Install the [DarkWP script](https://github.com/dans-art/darkwp/releases) in Darktable—
    follow the installation instructions in that project’s readme.
 4. Enter your login and application password in the «darkwp accounts» module. The 
    selected user must have the upload_files capability.
 5. Select the export target in the export module.
 6. Export photos

## Ofte stilte spørsmål

### Do I need another plugin to use DarkUploader?

Yes. DarkUploader only handles the WordPress side of the upload. You also need the
free [DarkWP script](https://github.com/dans-art/darkwp) installed in Darktable,
which performs the actual export from Darktable to your site.

### Which gallery plugins are supported?

The WordPress Media Library, NextGEN Gallery, Meow Gallery, and FooGallery are supported
out of the box. Developers can add support for other galleries with the `darkuploader_supported_galleries`
filter.

### Can I upload several photos to the same gallery in one export?

Yes. There is no limit from this plugin. Some galleries might restrict the amount
of images per gallery.

### Where can I see a log of past uploads?

Go to Media > DarkUploader > Statistics & History for a log of uploads (including
any errors) and overall statistics. You can control how long logs are kept, or turn
logging off entirely, from the General settings.

### Something isn’t working. Where can I get help?

Open an issue on the [DarkUploader support forum on GitHub](https://github.com/dans-art/darkuploader-wordpress-plugin),
or email info@dans-art.ch.

   current user (except admin)

   requirements

   Gallery or FooGallery failed

   gallery.
 * Added a `permission_callback` (requires the `upload_files` capability) to both
   the `/info` and `/media` REST routes.
 * Implemented the NextGEN Gallery adapter: create a new gallery, or add to an existing
   one, uploading through NextGEN’s own `import_image_file()` API so EXIF extraction,
   rotation correction, and thumbnail generation are handled the same way NextGEN’s
   own uploader handles them.
 * Added alt text, description, tags, and published/hidden (`exclude`) handling 
   for uploaded NextGEN images.
 * Added batch support (`X-Darkup-Batch` header) so multiple images from one Darktable
   export can share a single newly created gallery.
 * Fixed the `target` field’s validation callback, which previously accepted any
   input.
