Can't change album permission...

[engine-v]

Hi to all

A new user has registered to the gallery and by mistake instead set his album 'Album can be viewed by : everybody' he set the permission to 'me only' and as a result the photos cannot be viewed by everyone.

when I am trying to change the propeties of his album to 'Album can be viewed by : everybody' from the album properties it retain me message says
'No update needed. ' and it is not chanched

Is it possible to  changed it manualy from the database and how (in which table I chancge what?) any other ideas?

Thank you in advanced!!

Now the user has to reset a new password? in order to do that I suppose that he can loggin with an blank password?

guys, you both got this wrong: I recommended to reset the album password the user must have set up in error. If you set up password protection for albums by specifying an album password, the dropdown changes to "me only" no matter what unless you remove the album password again. I did not suggest to reset the password the user logs on with to coppermine. If you reset the users's password that correlates to his user account, you'll have to notify him by email that you reset his password by mistake and send him the new password you assigned for him when resetting it.
If you need help on the core functionality of coppermine (like resetting user passwords or how album password protection works), you should read this up in the documentation that comes with coppermine.
