Volume Galleries

🔧 FixedPhotos imported from a folder with pre-made thumbnails now keep the keywords, title and caption saved in the files, so gallery search can find them by keyword

✨ NewA folder that is already in Sunshine but is missing photos now says how many, and brings in just those. A folder that arrived short is as common as one that went missing entirely, and re-importing used to be the only fix
✨ NewThe import review screen now says which of the folders you picked are already in Sunshine, and offers to bring in only the new ones. Re-running an import to pick up a folder that went missing no longer makes a second copy of everything else
✨ NewA folder that is already in Sunshine is left completely alone, but new folders inside it still land inside the gallery that is already there rather than at the top level
✨ NewIf galleries here were created before Sunshine recorded which folder they came from, it says so and points at the tool that fills that in, rather than guessing and risking duplicates
✨ NewGalleries now remember which folder they were created from, including which bucket it was in. This is what lets a future import tell which folders it has already brought in
🔧 FixedA sub-gallery whose parent gallery had not been created was added at the top level with no warning, which looked like the import had lost it. This is now recorded in the log
🔧 FixedFolders that are more than ten levels deep, and folders that could not be read, are now recorded in the log instead of being skipped silently

🔧 FixedRetrying an import after a failure now picks up where it left off. The progress bars restarted at zero and finished short of the total, so an import of 100 photos that failed on photo 27 ended at 74 of 100 even though every photo imported
🔧 FixedThe Retry button now also appears when the server reports the problem, such as a file that could not be copied. Previously it only showed up after a connection or timeout error, so those imports stopped with no way to continue
🔧 FixedSettings copied from the source gallery stored array values incorrectly (double-serialized), which broke page builders like Elementor on every imported gallery

🔧 FixedFTP folder cleanup now also removes emptied container folders (such as a household folder whose day subfolders have all imported), not just the leaf folders that held images
🔧 FixedRunning multiple bulk imports at the same time could overwrite each other's queued list when started within the same second

✨ NewCloud storage bulk imports now scan large buckets (hundreds of folders) in small batches instead of all at once, so imports from providers like Cloudflare R2 no longer time out before the preview loads (works with Cloud Storage 3.0.11 or later)

🔧 FixedFeatured image tags empty in gallery invite emails — emails now send after images are imported so the gallery's featured image resolves correctly

🔧 FixedPre-processed mode counted -thumbnail and -large variants as separate galleries in the preview
🔧 FixedPre-processed imports from a flat folder (single image per gallery) did not find their sibling -thumbnail and -large files
🔧 FixedPre-processed originals with no matching variants now fall back to standard processing instead of being imported without sizes
🔧 FixedPre-processed images failed to be added to the gallery and had invalid attachment metadata paths, so thumbnails did not render
🔧 FixedPre-processed attachments missing created_timestamp, which caused them to be hidden when image order was set to shoot date

✨ NewVideo support when Video Sales addon is active — bulk import automatically extracts thumbnails and links video files
✨ NewAllow selecting private and draft galleries as source or parent gallery

🔧 FixedCloud storage folders not maintaining parent/child hierarchy when creating galleries

🔧 FixedMissing some variables and formatting for new gallery invite emails
🔧 FixedFeatured image in gallery invite email empty
🔨 ChangeFix processing of gallery title from folder/file with special chars in middle, add "sunshine_volume_gallery_title" to allow further customization

🔧 FixedBetter method of getting case insensitive folder images and gallery title
