Title: Multiple Group privledges
Post by: nukeworker on February 23, 2005, 09:21:46 PM
I'm using CGP 1.3.0 with SMF 1.0.2 using the CGP bridge.

Everything works fine.... but I have one question.

I have users in multiple groups, say "posts <50 messages" and "donor".

I give "posts < 50 messages" no access priveledges, and "donor" full access, what happens?

Is the person in both categories disallowed access, or allowed full access?

I DID search the forums here, and this message does not answer my question:

http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=13130.0

Because I already have people assigned to multiple groups, I just want to know how the software handles it in version 1.3.0

I'll be upgrading to 1.3.2 soon.

Ok, I did a lot of experimenting, and I feel confident is stating that:

All fields are evaluated, and the lest restrictive setting is used. 

It ignores the settings in the group called "Registered"

Coppermine doesn't support people belonging to multiple groups.  I have no idea how it would handle that situation.  Why don't you try it out and reply with your findings?

It doesn't? I thought it did ;)...

Oh yeah, maybe it's multiple groups having access to the same album.  I always get those mixed up.   ;)
