    LR 3 - hierarchical export by date possible?

    tplowe56 Community Member

      I am helping a friend who will be using LR 3 for editing and organizing family photos. I am suggesting using Year/Month folder structure along with keywords to organize the photos. LR can create the folder structure automatically on import. Is there a way to do this on export?

       

      For example photos are imported from a card to a "temp" folder. Photos are edited and then exported to the permanent folder system for archiving. The temp folder is emptied after editing. This is destructive editng, but that is the way we want to do it.

       

      I looked at the LR/Tree exporter plugin. This will duplicate the existing folder structure, but not create a new one on export.

       

      Looking for some suggestions.
