Hi,

I couldn't find this in the documentation or on the boards, so I assume it doesn't exist, but is the admin able to create user galleries for other users? It seems that when I login as admin, I can only create public galleries and the admin's own user gallery, but not other user galleries. I can upload to other user galleries with albums in them, just not create new albums? Why not?

Just do a album view and go into edit mode for the gallery as admin. toward the botton you will see an option to allows visitors to upload to the gallery..

@intelgio: thanks for your readiness to try to answer the question, but your answer doesn't apply here, sorry.

@moose6589: in cpg1.3.x, there's no such option using the coppermine user interface. Only option to accomplish this is directly on your database, using a tool like phpMyAdmin. Not recommended though - teach your users to create their own personal galleries. They're named "personal galleries" because it's the user who is suppossed to create and maintain it. The admin is suppossed to create and maintain files in public galleries, and eventually allow users to upload files to the public galleries (as intelgio suggested)
