Sorry there is no album where you are allowed to upload files

[scott8539]

Is it possible to have a Default gallery set for a registerd member? 

I have read the user manual and this support forum and banged head for many hours.  The end result of what I would like is that a new member can upload a file into their User Gallery without having to first create a gallery.

Right now, the upload process for a registered member is:
-- Login
-- Click "Upload File"
-- Get error message Sorry there is no album where you are allowed to upload files
-- Click on "Create / Order My Albums"
-- Create an album
-- Repeat the upload process

What I would like is to eliminate the "Create / Order My Albums" step.  I would like there to be a default album for each user.  That is, when the user logs in and clicks Upload File, they will already have a "Default" album in which their files will go (they could create personal albums as well...but there would be one already).

Any help will be very much appreciated.

btw, the installation, configuration, and bridge setup went flawlessly!

This is the Coppermine Gallery Support Forum isn't it?  Did I post this in the appropriate place?  Can a mod/admin/developer/anyone please provide some guidance? It's been 2 days since my initial post.

Thanks in advance!

This is indeed the support board for coppermine. However, it is done entirely by volunteers who do it in their spare time. They are not paid to do it so please keep in mind that you will have to count a few days (meaning , more then 2) before someone gets around to answering your question.
Posting that it already has been 2 days since your innitial post does not help, looks a lot like pushing and that's not appreciated much around here.

I don't know the answer to your question but maybe someone else does. I assume you did search before posting so someone else can perhaps answer this for you.

There is a thread with code to create an album automatically when a user registers but it will need modifications to work with a bridge.

I certainly didn't mean to ruffle any feathers!  I appreciate the answers.

I don't have any problem digging into the code and making the hacks myself.  I just wanted to avoid any customizations if possible so that I can still upgrade without having to worry about customizations.

Thanks again.
