Bulk Upload Many Pictures

[Dalek]

A few questions, can you advise please ? 

1)When i log in as Admin and click on Gallery > add picture. I can select my Gallery category and i can "Bulk Upload Many Pictures", well i can add 5 at a time. This creates 5 posts with one picture in each in my gallery section that has the category assigned to it, how do i make this add all 5 pictures to the one post ?

2) How can i upload more than 5 at a time using "Bulk Upload Many Pictures", is there a setting somewhere to control this number?

3) Where is the permission set to allow "Bulk Upload Many Pictures" as none of my other users can do this, i only get the usual form to do a text post and post one picture.

Cheers

1. When you edit the category. There is a field called topicid. Enter the topic id and all photos will be posted to that topic id. 
Otherwise yes on bulk upload you can't have the images grouped together in the same post.
2. I would use the multi bulk uploader. Under Admin -> Gallery Settings find "Use multiple file uploader for bulk uploads" and check that.
3. Under admin -> permissions -> modify their membergroup and give "Bulk Uploads" permission under SMF Gallery

Ok, got my topic ID by going to edit the category, my topic ID is 0

Where do i enter the topic ID of 0 to post all of my pictures on the same post ?

If i go to Gallery>Add Picture>"Select my category">Bulk Upload Many Pictures > Add Picture.  Where do i put the topic id ? Am i doing this in the wrong place ?

Kind Regards

TopicID can't be zero otherwise it just will post a new topic for each upload.
You have to get an existing topic from the forum to post.

On add picture there is no option to enter a topic id. Only on a category level that is admin controlled since that would create an issue if other people with gallery permissions can add to any topic.

Where do i see the topic id on a forum post, if that's what you mean ?

2 & 3 were already set as above, but is the same issue.

1. Here is where you get the topic id in the address bar of a topic
[ Guests cannot view attachments ]

2.Here is what your bulk uploader should look like
[ Guests cannot view attachments ]

3. This is the bulk permissions per membergroup should have at least.
This works as long as you don't have category level permissions set to override that membergroup
[ Guests cannot view attachments ]

ok, i can now upload multiple pictures at the same time, i haven't looked at the member permissions yet.
When it posts the multiple pictures it does one per post within the same topic.

Thanks very much for that, i like that a lot 

Is it possible to post these pictures all in the one post rather than individual posts ?
