Error: Sorry there is no album where you are allowed to upload

[lithman]

When I am logged in the Admin Mode ... I can upload files just fine. However when I log into user mode, and try to upload a file i get the following message

Error: Sorry there is no album where you are allowed to upload

My members get the same message.

Then make an album where visitors are allowed to upload. Read the manual and search the board before posting.

Read up the docs as well what admin mode vs. user mode are suppossed to be used for.

Could someone please direct me to where in the manual it tells you how to make albums that a user can upload to? I can't find it. Or what tab in the Admin mod do I go to to find this? Please help me.

u have to change the permissions on your alums,...
think th ebest way to do that is to go to an album and click on properties,.....

in user mode u only have the possibillity to upload to albums where regsitred users are allowed to if u have enabled upload for registered users in your groupmanager

there u can find some information:

That's BS. Stay out of user mode all the times. As I already suggested: "user mode" is just meant to be used when designing your theme and taking a quick glimpse how the site looks without admin controls. Don't (ab)use it for anything else.

@lithman: you have two options (or a mixture of those two):
1) go to the groups control panel, then allow members of your "registered" group to have personal galleries. Then they can create their own albums and upload their files to it
2) go to the groups control panel, allow the members of your "registered" group to upload to plublic albums. Then go to album properties (the "properties" button next to the thumbnail that represents an album) and set "visitors can upload" to "yes". If this setting is missing from the properties dialog, you shouldn't have disabled "albums can be private" in coppermine's config. Go there and re-enable it.

Could someone please direct me to where in the manual it tells you how to make albums that a user can upload to?

Please read the whole documentation. All of it.
