I know there is a lot of existing galleries generators. But I would like 
this one to be tightly integrated to digikam; the idea would be to have 
persistent folders - each base folder representing a web server. The 
hierarchy within a web server would be a hierarchy of galleries, where 
each setting can be overwritten.
Photos could be put in a gallery just by drag & drop. Photos could be 
shared between galleries and it could even be a support for seach (on 
tags, etc.). Changes on photos/galleries could be automatically detected 
and web sites would be automatically updated.
I am not sure if it can be developped as a kipi plugin nor if such a 
project exists (I didn't find it on the web).
