When editing an album index page, a new collapsible Cover Image Overrides accordion appears below the content path settings. Expanding it reveals a list of all entries in the index, each showing a thumbnail, title, path, and status badge.\nClicking Edit cover image on any entry expands an image grid showing all available images from the album catalogue. For nested index pages (an index containing other indexes), images from all child albums are aggregated into a single grid. The album's default cover image is marked with a gold star. Clicking any image selects it as the cover — a blue circle confirms the selection, and the index card preview updates immediately.
\nBelow the image grid, a focal point picker allows precise control over where the image is cropped on the index card. Click and drag the crosshair to reposition, and use the zoom slider to zoom in on the focal area. The index card preview updates in real time as you drag — no save required. This works for both direct album entries and nested index entries that inherit images from child albums.
\nIndex entries now automatically inherit the cover image and focal point from the first child album, respecting the index sort configuration. For example, if the index is sorted by title ascending, the cover comes from the alphabetically first child album's configured cover image and focal point settings. No manual configuration is needed for sensible defaults.
\nFor nested index pages where an entry is itself an index that aggregates child albums, the system follows the albumIndex content paths to discover child pages, find their carousel configurations, and fetch all associated image metadata. This applies both to the default cover image resolution and to the override editor's image grid, which shows the full catalogue from all child albums.
\nEach customised entry displays a blue Customised badge with a Reset to default button directly on the collapsed row — one click to revert without expanding. A reset button is also available inside the expanded view. Resetting removes the override and restores the album's own cover image and focal point.
