I looked around for similar post...but couldn't find anything via search, etc. I would like to allow anonymous users to see catagories or albums but when they try to click on them to enter...they get directed to a "you need to register to view this" page or to the login page.
The only setting I can see is under album management and is the "Album can be viewed by "Members of the 'Registered' group", which doesn't allow unregistered users to even see that the album exists.
Updated: ok, i figured out the option to yes in "Show private album Icon to unlogged user" thnx...
I get it doing this in cpg1.3.2. :
1- Open thumbnails.php
find;
Code:
require('include/init.inc.php');
Add after;
Code:
if (USER_ID){
} else {
{
$redirect = $redirect . "login.php";
header("Location: $redirect");
exit();
}}
2- In the " Configuration " :
The content of the main page : breadcrumb/anycontent/alblist
Nothing else, so unlogged users can not go in through the thumbnails.
You can see it at www.jamurillo.com/stock
You should always have catlist in the list of contents of mainpage.
You should also put the if/else switch in displayimage.php.
Thanks Casper !
What do you means by :
You should also put the if/else switch in displayimage.php. ???
Explain us, please !
You just need to do the same thing in displayimage.php as you did in thumbnails.php.
This is explained in this mod, http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=3503.msg15506#msg15506, which makes all users log in. For what you want, do this mod, but not to the index.php.
Then all visitors will see the cats and sub cats, but not be able to go into the albums and see the pics. You will still be able to show random and lastup thumbs on the front page.
do you mean to paste the same code in thumbnails.php into displayimage.php?
*edit: got it to work. Thanks! :)
I tried this and you do not need to put the extra code into the thumbnails.php. If you do, when someone logs on they will see "User already logged on". Just put the code in the displayimage.php and you'll get the desired result. ;D
I'm trying this hack but cant get it to work

I get this error message if I'm logged out and trying to access the gallery url:

gallery.librarium-online.comhttp could not be found. Please check the name and try again.
I tried accessing the gallery without using the subdomain, but got the same error message. I'm also using the latest version of coppermine..
Thanks
