Title: Moerators ???
Post by: McDuck on March 27, 2005, 12:07:32 PM
How can I create a group, called "Moderators", and give them the rights to delete photos...?

Please only 1 question per thread.

1.  You cannot, without making them admins, which is not recommended. 

2.  Pics can easily be moved between albums, just change the pic properties.

Pictures can only be in albums. Move the pics into albums in different categories.

Categories hold albums.  Albums hold pictures.

a user creates an own album... but it's appear not in existing categories but in a new one, called "???"... I wanted to move it to another category, but in the properties of the album i can't see all my (27) categories, only two existing albums... what should i do...?

I found out what is the problem: Being in admin mode I can't change the categories in users albums... there is no such option, and the list of categories in album properties is not active...  ??? :\'(

You can't move albums out of user galleries.
Title: Re: Moerators ???
Post by: McDuck on March 28, 2005, 07:50:39 PM
it's not right... what if the user put his pics in  wrong category... ?  >:(

You can edit the database manually.

If you don't trust your users, don't give them upload privileges.
Title: Re: Moerators ???
Post by: Nibbler on March 28, 2005, 07:53:38 PM
Then you can move the pic. Please read the documentation thoroughly, this conversation is going nowhere.

4.9 Editing files (http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/manual.php#edit_pics)

Use the album drop down menu to move the file to another album.

I'm gonna crazy whith my problems...
1. began to improve my gallery and found out that new user can't choose a category for his pics... so he tries to create a new album and there is no drop down menu where he can choose the category for the album... WHY?  so his pics automatically go to Users Private Gallery and can't be moved and album can't be modified
2. there is another interesting thing: I decided to limit the rights of users to have their private galleries... I thought their pics would automaticlly go to "No Category", but I was wrong... the user can't add pics at all... by the way, the right to upload photo is granted...
again WHY ???

am i so stupid...  ;D

If you want users to upload to general albums, you need to edit album properties to allow visitor uploads.

Remember: pics go in albums, not in categories. Saying that pics should go into *no category * is meaningless.

but album goes to specific category... My users don't have the ability to choose category for their new albums... I thought that the problem is due to old version of gallery, but an hour ago I downloaded the last version, but the problem remains  :\'(

made a printscreen of this
have a look...   http://mcduck.ru/problem.jpg
may be it will help to find the solution

Normal users can only create albums in their own user gallery. Only admins can create 'regular' albums.
Title: Re: Moerators ???
Post by: McDuck on March 31, 2005, 10:02:53 PM
is it a good idea?
what if i want my users to  put their pics in categiruies themselves...? should i do them all admins...? is there any way to let normal users decide which  category their album should belong to whithout giving them ALL PRIVILEGES...?
