[FAQ]: Photo Contest - multiple user submit to one album

[freefifty]

I'm trying to set up Coppermine so that multiple users can submit to one album. I've searched the posts, but haven't found anything. Did set all settings so that everyone can do almost everything, just to test, but still no luck!!
I'm trying to use it for a photo contest for our area.

You have to change the album properties.  The default is that others cannot upload to an album you create, but change it in the albums properties page, so that 'visitors can upload'.

I must be getting old!!!
No matter what I do, I can't seem to allow others to add photos.  Exactly where do I change the album settings?
Thanks a lot for your help.

steps to get this working:

• log in as admin
• admin mode
• coppermine "config"
• "Users can can have private albums" - "yes"
• "Save new configuration"
• "groups" in admin menu
• For the group "Registered": "Can upload pictures" - "yes"
• "apply modifications"
• "album list"
• "properties" next to album thumbnail
• "Visitors can upload pictures" - "yes"
• "Update album"
• log out as admin
• log in with regular test-user account
• check if you can upload as expected[/list:u]This has been explained in detail many times before - next time, please search the board

I spend at least an hour searching the board,  but I did not find the detailed steps anywhere!
