Title: [VB3.0.5/CPG] Restrict Access to Certain Usergroups
Post by: Rambo on January 17, 2005, 02:15:52 AM
Hey,

I installed CPG through the script library on my host, and set up everything nicely, intergated it with Vbulletin..

Anyway, i am wanting to know if there is a way that i can set so that only certain usergroups are allowed to access the gallery? Because i want only staff and special members to be able to access the gallery and actually view the images, but everyone else other than what i mentioned will now be able too.

Hopefully i explained that right, anyway help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Rambo

either set up privacy options per album using coppermine's built-in permissions system, or create a hack based on http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/faq.php#registeredUsersOnly that does not only check for the constant USER_ID, but a more sophisticated group membership logic.

Alright,

Thanks for the reply, i sadly am a crap coder so rules me out, i will probably try and ask a friend to create one for me, im sure he can manage it.

Also, one more question..When i click on Users through the adminCP in coppermine it redirects me to the Vbulletin Users AdminCP, is that suppose to happen yeah?

Ooh ooh and how can i get the skin to look the same as the one i am using for the forum?

Danke

Yes, that's the point of bridging: expected behaviour, as bridging disables coppermines built in user management, replacing it with the one from your bbs.

Browse the demo (http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/demo/) using the "coose theme" dropdown, get the theme that resembles your pages layout the most from the download section (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=89658&package_id=98541&release_id=215703) and modify as suggested in the docs (http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/manual.php#creating).
