I am totally new to Coppermine and am playing around with it and another gallery app to see which I prefer or what the strengths and weaknesses are etc. I am totally ignorant when it comes to programming and PHP etc.
One feature I can not seem to find in the control panel for Coppermine:
I do not want a giant user galleries category. I want registered users to be able to UL pics to any category but only admin can create new categories. Is that possible? Am I an idiot and just not seeing it?
On that same site I want to restrict viewing the pics and galleries to registered users as well. . . . .is that also possible?
For a different site, is it possible to not allow any users to post pics at all? Basically just a gallery to show pics by one photographer.
If these things are possible but require hiring freelance people to make the mods, I am certainly open to that and will post in the correct forum.
I may also be interested at tying coppermine in with phpbb forums on one site.
I apreciate any and all info. . . .thanks!
Have you reviewed the documentation that comes with Coppermine?
My install was done via cpanel on my webhost with fantastico. Are the docs online here? I will look. I am very new to this stuff so I will always wind up with the app that is most user friendly. I am guessing coppermine isn't?
Most things are user friendly if you read the instructions. They are online via the link at the top of all pages on this site and in the /docs folder on your site.
