i have a group setup in phpbb , called 'Club Members' test is a member of this group.

i (mattg) am setup as an admin and i can add albums to this group , but test does not get an option.

any advice welcome.

permissions are set in two places in coppermine: group settings and album properties. Make sure you have at least one album where "Club Members" have the right to upload to.

P.S. I remember that there has been an issue with spaces in group names. If you don't manage to get this working, try changing the group name to 'Club_Members' or similar (and never forget to go to the groups panel of coppermine once you changed groups in your bbs to update the coppermine group settings as well).

hi gaugau ,

i have changed the group name , but no change.

i cant see where you set the perminsions for which group can upload where.

I can see the page which configues groups , and i have club members set to be the same as admin , but cant find the properties for a album , when i click on albums in admin all i get it is the option to change the description.

thanks

Matt

you mustn't add users to the admin group - they'll screw up your gallery for sure!

To find the album properties, click on a category when in admin mode and then click on "properties" next to the album!

GauGau

sorry ... i have not added them to the admin group, just given them the same options. for uploading.

here is a pic of the catogory menu , i cant see the properties button ?

Hey !

You're not looking at the right place, that's why !

Check these out : first, select an album to modify, directly from your gallery

Click on "properties", you should now see these drop down menus : just adjust them to whatever you want your visitors to be able to do or not in the given album :

Good luck!

thanks .. but i am not sure if thats what i want.

i see you can allow visitors to upload ,but not just certain groups.
but if i log in as 'test' i am still not allowd to create an album in the 'Event' cat.

thanks

Matt

You're welcome Matt !

I think that you might have the same problem than mine then... Can you read this thread http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=384 and let me know if your problem is the one i describe there ?

If so, right now there is no solution, it's a bug... I'm trying to work on it though :)

thanks, Mels! Good point with the screen shots...

GauGau

it sounds like my problem , but my 'Club Members' ( same as your 'Uploaders' group can create there own albums in the defualt catogory , but just create them in the new 'Events' catorgory.

thanks

Matt

users can only create user albums- and each user is restricted to have only one user album. Afaik there's no workaround for that (it's actually a feature to avoid flooding). You'll have to create the albums for them and fix the properties.

GauGau

ok ... but the properties for the album only allow every one or just me ,
or if i have setup in groups that visitors cant upload stops that ?

will try :)

Matt

so is it only admins that can create public albums ?

Matt

yup!
