SMF 1.x Bridge - Additional Groups Ignored

[pftq]

A member with "Administrator" under their SMF Additional Groups is not given Admin permissions for Coppermine as well.

This is with CPG 1.5.8:

I remember in 1.4.x, additional groups worked fine in CPG.

Works fine for me with latest development release (r7936).

Is that the same as 1.5.8 (Stable)? The main issue I am getting is that someone with "Administrator" under Additional Groups (but not as their main group) will not get the option to show/hide Admin Controls.

No. But the bridge file hasn't been touched since the release of cpg1.5.8.

I just recognized the little word 'additional' in your description. Afaik Coppermine always uses the lowest permission if a user is in multiple groups. So you'll have to put him in the Administrator group if he should have administration privileges.

I see - thanks for clarifying.

Is there any possibility this might be changed to recognize the highest permission given instead?

What I'm basically trying to do is have a user with Admin permissions but without the group name explicitly being "Administrator".

Moving to appropriate support board.
