Title: I don't want users to mess with my pictures...
Post by: guvenck on February 21, 2005, 12:12:49 PM
Hello,

Nice looking gallery and configurable script. Thanks to those who take part...

My question about permissions is:

Is there a way to separate the pictures/albums created by the admin (me) from the ones in the userpics folder? I am saying this, because in my case, any registered user can access my directory structure, although I disable anything related to file upload and "let me have private galleries" issues. I just want (as an admin), to batch add pictures from a folder (in my case, this are directories in albums folder, lets say 'albums/gonefishing' or 'albums/mybaby' to the albums I created (as an admin). I also want that registered users can add comments to photos and vote them. I want users only deal with the directories under the userpics folder. In my case, when I login as a registered user for testing, I can almost act like an admin, display the admin menu, add/delete albums in every category, display users and groups, even edit them. What is wrong?

Regards

Hmmm
The registered user you are talking about seems to be a user of Admin group.
Go to "Users" and check the Group of the user.
If it is "Administators", click on the "Edit" button corrosponing to the user and change the "User Group" to "Registered".
