Help / The Help Forum

I actually read through the forum and see that this feature is not yet been implemented.

However, to create a set inside another set is the basis of data organization. It is a much needed feature and makes this site all but useless to me.

Like whitby2006 or canada1979 etc. Then viewing a photograph you can hit the tag and view all in your stream that match the tag. Posted 21 months ago. ( permalink )

	spidrwegian_no_more says: Yes but you don't need help on this. You need to look in the FlickrIdeas forum where there are 100s of like minded people asking for subsets. Posted 21 months ago. ( permalink )

	jwieland says: I'm exploring using tags. One issue would be image Importing * I have 4 years of photos to upload (6 gigs) . All brocken into herachical directories year -> month -> topic -> [subtopic ->] pictures I have hundreds of these directories that all need to be uploaded Obvioudly I would like to have sets and sub-sets created. However in the mean time it would be helpful if it could take the last directory and make it a set. Then use all the parent directories as tags for that set. Example 2003 -> October -> Halloween -> Kid's Costumes -> images.jpg make a set of 'Kid's Costumes' and add the tags: 2003, October, Halloween Posted 21 months ago. ( permalink )
