Access rights and Std Alone User manager still active whilst bridged

Our forum has users that are just registered on the forum, along with users that are part of clubmember or corporate groups. We also have an Admin group. It is only the clubmember and corporate groups (along with admin) that we wish to have personal galleries. I.e. if you are just registered on the forum but are not a member of one of the latter three groups you don't get a personal gallery.

Onto the problem :-

Logged on as an Forum Admin user and selecting groups tab, I see that there are the 4 std coppermine groups along with the inherited forum groups. Each of the inherited groups has been given personal gallery upload permission. However, If any of the std coppermine groups are set to not allow personal galleries any user that belongs to that group no longer get the button to upload images even though they are a member of clubmember.

If I click on users tab I still get the std alone coppermine users page (i.e. it is not redirecting to the forum's user list page as stated in your instructions if bridged). From what is listed on the user manager page it appears that each forum user that is in clubmember group is shown as being a member of both inherited forum group 'clubmember' AND std-alone coppermine group 'registered'. Any forum administrator is showing as being a member of  both 'Admin' forum group and std-alone 'Administrators' group. So going back to the lack of upload button it looks like the priviledges for the std alone groups is taking precedence for each of these users that has a forum and stdalone group listed on the usermanager page?

I have tried this morning the latest phpbb2018.inc.php, udb_base.inc.php and phpbb.inc.php files from CVS with no change in the above situation :(

Any help is much appreciated.
