Title: How do I change the group ID mapping
Post by: webstergd on September 06, 2006, 08:37:06 PM

I would like to set the group ID from SMF that coppermine will use for registered users and administrators. Currently a registered user who is not placed in a group is given registered status in coppermine. However, if that user's primary group is changed to another group he no longer has registered status in coppermine. This is a problem because my members and officers are the users I want to have access to coppermine but not regular registered users. <-- sorry that was a mouthfull :-) From the smf sql information I noticed the following:

registered with no special primary member group -- ID_GROUP = 0
registered with member primary member group -- ID_GROUP = 9
registered with officer primary member group -- ID_GROUP = 2
registered with admin primary member group -- ID_GROUP = 1

Is there a place where I can map these groups to the coppermine group? Bellow is how I would like to map them.
coppermine admin = SMF ID_GROUP 1 2
coppermine registered = SMF ID_GROUP 9
coppermine guest = SMF ID_GROUP 0

Thank you for your help!

I am using:
Joomla, v1.0.11
SMF vRC3
SMF bridge from SMF
Coppermine v1.4.9
Coppermine bridge from v1.4.9

Try using post based groups and album visibility settings. You can set admin rights using the $this->admingroups array in the bridge file.

thank you for your help with setting the groups permissions. I have fixed that problem.

However, is this the correct modification to the code to allow officers to have admin permissions? I usually program in assembly or java so my php/mysql is a little rusty.

Code Select

                // Group ids - admin and guest only.
                       $this->admingroups = array(
                           $this->use_post_based_groups ? 101 : 1, //default admin
                           2 // officer group
			);
                $this->guestgroup = $this->use_post_based_groups ? 1 : 3;

THANKS AGAIN FOR THE HELP!!! I wouldn't know what to do without you guys. ;D

You probably want

Code Select


                    $this->admingroups = array(
                           $this->use_post_based_groups ? 101 : 1, //default admin
                           $this->use_post_based_groups ? 102 : 2,  // officer group
			);

Check by logging into accounts in the various groups, admin rights is not something you want to get wrong.
