Perfect Cloud-based Photo Setup with digiKam and Piwigo

[ Thanks to Dmitri

“Using digiKam’s Kipi plugins, you can upload your
photos to a variety of popular photo services, including Flickr,
Picasaweb, and SmugMug. But what if you want to host your own photo
album and still be able to populate it with photos directly from
within digiKam? In this case, you might want to try Piwigo, a nifty
photo application that has everything you need to host and share
your photos on the Web. Piwigo is supremely easy to install and get
to grips with, and you can use the vast collection of available
extensions and themes to customize the application to fit your
specific needs. The best part is, though, that digiKam comes with
the Piwigo upload plugin, so you can push your photos directly from
the desktop photo management application to the Web album. To
enable the plugin, launch digiKam, choose Settings | Configure
digiKam, switch to the Kipi Plugins section, and enable the Remote
Piwigo Export plugin. Press OK, and restart digiKam.”
