private_public_access

[Pawel25]

Dear Support,

I am admin and I created e.g. four albums in public categories:
album_1
album_2
album_3
album_4

and next I created  a few users e.g.
user_1
user_2
...
and some private albums for this users for upload file it's obvious.

But I would like to give additionally access users for upload file/picture to the public category (in my case: album_1, album_2, album_3, album_4) and in order to do  in "group control panel" I changed for "Register" users (user_1, user_2) "public upload approval" set to NO (like "Administrator"), set "can upload files" to YES. And I can't upolad files to the public albums as registered user ( I can upload files only for private albums still). Tell me if you can why I can't upload files into public albums despite of I set in "group control panel" everything for  upload to the public album?
maybe I forgot of any important things?

It is possible moving between private and public albums?
e.g. user_1 upload file: nature_1.jpg for private album: e.g. album_private_1
and I would like to have this picture in the public album: e.g. album_public
because this pic nature_1.jpg fit to album e.g. nature as well.


Regards,
Pawel

I am having this same problem, kind of.
I want regular users to be able to upload to Ablums with no categories.

Again, this is the problem I have.  It seems like it should be simple.  What am I missing?

There is no functionality in coppermine to allow specific user groups to uplaod in specific albums.
If you set "Visitors can upload files" to Yes in album properties all the users (including guests) will be able to uplaod in that album.
As of now there is no way to achieve what you want.

If you set "Visitors can upload files" to Yes in album properties all the users (including guests) will be able to uplaod in that album.

Not quite correct.  In the groups management, set anonymous to not be able to upload, then guests cannot upload to any album, and set each album you want your users to upload to as 'visitors can upload' to yes.

Then your registered users can upload, but guests cannot.

[Aditya Mooley]

Yes I know that. I was taking into considaration that all the groups have upload permissions set to yes in group manager.

Where is "Visitors can upload files" ?

I got some information from CPG Support in other(previous) topics and I have looking for still this notes("Visitors can upload files"), I found only "can upload file" in groups panel. Is it the same?

I would like to give users permission to the public albums. How I should do this?
How th change structure of database if I would like to have pictures (e.g. woman1.jpg)  in the albums for user_1 and this same picture in the public albums because e.g. this picture (woman1.jpg) fit to public category (women) and on the other hand user_1 is owner's this picture and I want this picture have in the user_1 albums. How to change structure database to make this point?

enable "Users can have private albums (Note: if you switch from 'yes' to 'no' any current private albums will become public)" in coppermine config to have the option you asked for in album properties. Read the docs and search the board, this is well documented!

Merged the other thread you started with this one. Don't double-post nor cross-post! Respect board rules in the future.
