Hi, sounds like a great module. I installed it succesfully.

First issue is, the admin config link shows up nowhere.
admin/config/picasa-node-album is not a valid D7 config path.

This would be valid:
admin/config/media/picasa-node-album

Second issue is, after attaching "Google Picasa" to a node, I can't see how to add albums? Where is the "Add album field?" It seems by default a tab to manage nodes is disabled? So that's where you lost me.

I would this module more useful if albums were a field.

I appreciate the feedback morningtime. Where do you find the documentation on the valid Drupal config paths for D7? We're attaching data to a node so it could be considered content authoring in a sense too, but I'd like to read up on it if there's docs.

As far as adding images, something broke with my last update. I'm going to work on this later today and get a new release out.

Putting the UI in a field because it is a little complicated with the Picasa user selection/restrictions feature which sets the autocomplete albums field. This would be difficult as a field. Not saying it isn't possible, but I'll start putting thought into it.

I forgot to adress the "missing ui" . You should see a 'Manage Albums' tab on the nodes you enabled the module for. That part should work. It's just actually throwing an error when you add the image... which I think you may have found after reading the other issue.

Thanks again, feedback like what you gave is much appreciated.

After re-reading the issue, I am going to answer the missing UI issue again.

Picasa Node Album provides 2 possible tabs on a node. 1) Manage Albums, 2) Albums

Manage Albums should always be there if you can edit the node.

The "Albums" tab is what the checkbox in the admin form refers to. This will provide a separate page for all content viewers to see the albums.

Also note: The menu has been put into admin/config/media with the latest 7.x-1.0-beta2 release.

I installed this module a couple of days ago. While it is working fine now, I had some of the problems listed above. These may relate to how D7 installs work.

My first problem was with installing the zend framework. I downloaded the tarball to my site, unpacked it and then copied the zend folder into the libraries folder and then installed the zend module. I then tried to find the configure for it to tell the module where the libraries (as noted on the picasa_node_album project page) but it wasn't on the configure page. I tried unenabling and re-enabling, to no avail as well as several other approaches including clearing all caches multiple times. Finally zend showed up on configure and I saved the path to zend libraries. It then showed up on the status report.

I then downloaded and enabled picasa_node_album and had a somewhat similar experience in that it did not show up on the configuration page. After several re-enables, cache clears and mystical incantations it was there. I added my google account info, told the module what node-type to appear on.

I created a new page, put a title on it but couldn't find how to add an album. Finally, I saved the page. Only then does the picasa_node_album tab ("Manage Albums") show up. That made it work from there.

I will put together a lengthier outline of how I got this module working in D7.
