Would like to be able to change the name of an established Album.
Right now, I think, the only option is to remove and add images and content to and from an established Album. I would also like to be able to change the name of the Album itself from the admin page. Right now the only thing one can do in trash the existing album and make a new one with a corrected title. Is this easy to accomplish?

Have you tried just changing the name of the album folder manually through ftp? I don't know how it works in 4.6.1, but previously I would just change the name of the album folder and in the Pluck admin reattach it to the page where I wanted it.

Well, yes it might be accomplished that way but if one is using this without the benefit of ftp or you have someone not experienced with ftp then they then have a real problem if their album is quite large and they need to change the name of the album for some reason.

That should work in 4.6.x too. It doesn't matter how many pictures an album contains, you just need to rename one directory. In 4.6.x, you can find the albums in data/settings/modules/albums.
It is indeed a nice option to implement for 4.7. I will note it down and take a look at it when I have time.

Re: Would like to be able to change the name of an established Album.
Hi, we have a customer that need to rename the Albums, and Pluck CMS don't have this opction.
Learning and reading the pluck code, we write some file and change others, and now the albums can be renamed
We add files to the "data/modules/albums/functions.php"
[== html ==]
<td>
<form action=\"data/modules/albums3/pages_admin/renamealbum.php\" method=\"post\"><span class=\"kop4\">New Album Name</span><br>
<input name=\"album_rename2\" type=\"text\" value=\"\">
<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"album_rename1\" value=$directorio[$i]/>
<input type=\"submit\" name=\"Submit\">
</form>
</td>We write a new file "data/modules/albums/pages_admin/renamealbum.php", that change the name of the album's directory
You can download this new re writed module from here:

Hello I tried this and am still having trouble. I'm gonna give it another shot from scratch to see if I just missed a step but i don't think I did. But thank you for the reply to this post. I've been looking for an answer for this besides changing the filename throught FTP. Thanks again!
