Hi, I am trying to make my Coppermine installation allow access to only certain membergroups.
Basically, I wish for only x member group to see the galleries, and of course my crew.

Thanks in advance for any help.

there's no solution "out of the box" to accomplish what you're requesting - you need to apply some code changes. First, go to coppermine's "groups" panel and disable everything for the groups you don't want to have access - this will keep them from uploading, rating, commenting etc.
To even disable them accessing the gallery, you have to do as suggested here and add some more code around it (some if/then conditional) to check for the user group a user is in and only allow access if he/she is in the valid group.
