Allow more than one user to view a Gallery + More rights

[Meistaaa]

I think it's better, when you can choose more than one group, whitch is allowed to see the gallery.

Additionally I would prefer, that Groups are ranked. E.g. the Moderator Group can see Gallerys from reg. Users, the Admin can see all Groups and so on...

Thanks I hope you will notice my ideas!

This (multiple group memberships, inheritable permissions etc.) has been requested before, but is not easily done. Of course we have considered this for future versions of coppermine...
For the near future (with the existing coppermine structure), this is not possible.

Actually, it is possible for users of one group to view albums set to another, lower group.  I have a group called 'superuser' on my 1.2.1 test site.  When changing a registered user to superuser, just make sure that both boxes are ticked in the usermgr, and they then see these albums.

Note, in this version this only works if 'show private icon to unlogged user' is set to YES.  In the next version this works fine without the icon setting.

hi casper,

thanks for your advise to set 'show private icon to unlogged user' on.
now it works

but is there a possibility to show a thumbnail of one of the real pictures instead of the "private picture" for logedin user from other groups?

At the moment, no, but will be in the next version, if you can wait  :wink:
