API coding for Zenfolio

by Scott on July 3, 2009

I am the first to tell you Zenfolio is amazing. I have written my reasoning on my blog, on Twitter, Facebook and more. But now I need help. I am working on merging my blog with my website. This means a complete makeover of the site. Since I am going through changes I decided I want to bring Zenfolio into my site even more. This is what I am trying to do.

(I submitted this query to Zenfolio)

I want to add a customer login form on my website so a customer can either choose an album from a dropdown or enter their name, then enter the correlating password to access their photos on my zenfolio. Is it possible?

I am hoping it is, but because I don’t understand API coding so this should be a good learning experience!
