Congratulations Abbas on getting engaged. I hope and wish you will have a long and happy marriage. I'm not at that stage yet but i know my gf wants attention as wel

I am stil wanting to get this mod to do be enhanced as discussed here, http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=35990.msg194990#msg194990. Abbas is undoubtedly really busy at the moment so i wonder if maybe a other dev member might be willing to give it a shot ?

I just installed Coppermine 1.4.10.  I followed your instructions to change the database and upload the files.
I don't see any option to give permissions to a group either.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Same here...

I have this mod installed and work fine except 1 thing:

Some of my members are in the Registered group and the Design Team group (I created) but they can only upload to Register group albums and not Design Team groups. Since I have my gallery bridged with phpbb I can not edit gallery profiles to make them only in the design team group and it would be annoying if I have to unbridge each time I need to add someone to the design team group.

The website is at http://gallery.chscrapbooks.com and the test account is:

username: searlyn
password: 123456

searlyn is in the design team group and the albums in the Design Team category have Design Team group permissions only.

Does anyone know what the problem is?

[Abbas Ali]

This is strange. Can you provide me with the admin un/pass via PM?

[aunrea]

I have to set it to all registered members can upload to the album. I need to let the design team upload to their albums. I can't wait. I hope someone can still find a solution because this plug-in sounds great if I could get it to work properly. Thanks for the help so far.

I have been spending time during vacation to see if i could see a way to get this mod to do what i want but i keep bumping into this wall over and over again. I can't code  :-\.

So, i am stuck with my request regarding this mod. To have it modified so you can set upload rights for a group and even (when needed) to a single person within a group. I realise Abbas is a busy man so i look to the others devs how might fancy a challenge  .

I hope you all had a good vacation i sure know my world jamboree was loads of fun!

Thanks for the mod, it really helped me.

I have a problem and I ask for your help: I also installed a few days ago another mod from Abbas, the one who made it posible to have moderators for each album ( http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=26218.0 ).

I installed this mod and after that my problem is that i can't have different groups in charge of moderating and of uploading. If I allow for example "registered" group to upload photos, then the moderator option puts registered users in charge of moderating the albums.
Same thing happens if I allow guests to upload, they are allowed also to moderate.

I am a newbie here, if someone can tell me what to do I would apreciate it.

[roultras]

sorry, it was my bad, i oerlooked one of the instructions...

[Abbas Ali]

Please do not cross post, i.e. if you have an issue with another mod then post in respective thread.

@Hein: I got time to look into your issue. Initially i thought that its easy and straight forward but i was wrong. When i actually started coding, i found that its quite complex. So i am afraid you will have to either drop the idea or wait longer 

[Hein Traag]

Abbas i appreciate your effort. If you don't mind i am prepared to wait for it. I believe it is a valuable option to have in this mod. Thanks again for your time and effort

I've been silently watching this thread in hopes of Heins' request getting working.  I too would like this.

Abbas - is it possible to use your Upload Permission In Albums on Group Basis along with MiniCMS (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=15543.0)

What I'm trying to do is set up vertical management (Group can manage a category, its sub category(s) and albums along with using MiniCMS for each).

I think this can be done if your "...Group Basis" can be applied to MiniCMS.

thanks

[Abbas Ali]

Never tried doing so - Please try it yourself and report back.

[Gephri]

in this case, i'm just the concept guy - no idea how to code this. sorry

[Abbas Ali]

Oh - i thought that you were asking whether the mod will work if MiniCMS plugin has been installed and hence i said you can try it.

So you want the mod to be applied to MiniCms plugin too... Well i have not seen or used that plugin at all so don't know. Maybe the creator of that plugin can help you.

[Joachim Müller]

@Gephri: the MiniCMS plugin is not subject of this thread and should therefor not be discussed here. It is a very complex plugin, I doubt that it can be easily modified in the way you want. MiniCMS goes unsupported here - for support, visit cpg-contrib.org

[mipavluk]

Excellent mod!!!
Thanks Abbas!

[mipavluk]

well... I have a problem...
Album Permisions: I choose the correct group for each album.
Group Permission: allowed public albums upload for the groups
I only have 2 groups, registered and designers.
Some albums for registered and some albums for designers.
but none of the two groups can upload images to their respective albums
I think I do something wrong... but I can't find my error... can you please help me?
thanks

I wanted to ask this before trying this mod, because if I understand the description correctly, it won't work the way I want it to.

But since I am new to Coppermine, I wanted to ask to be sure.

Background:
-- My site is Joomla based with Coppermine bridged to Joomla.
-- Post groups are enabled, so all my groups come from Joomla.
-- Members are each in only one group. There are no secondary groups in Joomla

I wish to have 2 categories, each with several albums.

Any group from Registered and up can see all albums.

Members of the Registered group should be able to upload to the albums in one category

Members of the Publishers group should be able to upload to albums in either category.

If I understand the mod correctly, then I can set Registered users to upload to albums set for them, and publishers can upload to albums set for them, but publishers would not be able to upload to the albums set for Registered users.

Is this correct?

If this is true, is there another way to allow anybody but guests to upload to one set of albums but only members of a certain group to upload to other albums? (everybody except guests gets to see everything)
