Having a plethora of issues on Coppermine

[Calesar]

Hello forum

I have been looking around for fixes for some of the issues I have been having, but none of them have been solved, or there isn't a topic for it

I am currently the admin for http://www.anthroark.com/ , and I have modified the basic template file that you get with a base install of coppermine to make my website look presentable for the next few weeks until I can learn how to use this

But, I haven't found fixes that I so desperately need

For one thing, the register button doesn't appear on my front page like it should, and when I do create a link to the register.php, I get an error telling me that I "don't have permission to access this page". I need a register feature of some sort to allow users to upload their own collection to our gallery.

Second, the only people who can upload right now are administrators. Anyone else is left with a string of numbers and letters, in an error message. I've tried all sorts of things by creating multiple accounts, and I still have no avail. I'd like users to be able to upload photos to the gallery, but not to be able to delete galleries and images as well. The only way for users to even access the upload feature is for me to create an account by going through the 'users' directory.

I would also like to skip the 'intermediate' photo stage, and go right to full size on my gallery with images. People find it a bit tiring to click on every single image to get a fullsized image, and that really hurts our userbase instead of helping it. I remember a website called "Furrytower" having full sized photos instead of intermediate, but they went down, so there is no way for me to find out what they were doing.

I might have some more issues, so as I get them, I'll keep posting them. Any help on this is appreciated, and I only know some webdesign from a few classes I took a while ago. I know HTML and CSS, but I can only slightly sift through PHP and SQL, so any help is appreciated!

You have to enable the registration feature in the config: http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/configuration.htm#admin_allow_registration

Just enable the corresponding config setting: http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/configuration.htm#admin_thumbnail_to_fullsize


Next time please read and follow our board rules before/while starting a new thread.

How do I work the config file from that site?
