Restrict access to the gallery for groups

[Naif]

Hello everybody!

I know there is this setting in the Configuration: "Allow unlogged users (guest or anonymous) access", where you can choose either "Yes" or "No".

I'm just wondering, is there any way to allow access only to users who are included in special groups, and block it to the rest (guests and registered users)? I know that this could be done by setting this propierty in all of the albums, but is it possible to do it more quickly somehow?

Thanks!

read the old CPG 1.3 faq about unlogged user access
http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg13x/docs/faq.htm#registeredUsersOnly
that's pretty much what you need. You just need to adopt the code a lil bit

Code Select Expand

$USER_DATA['groups'][0]
holds the first group id a user is in

so it'll look for example like

Code Select Expand

if ($USER_DATA['groups'][0] == 2){
cpg_die(ERROR, 'You do not have access to the gallery', __FILE__, __LINE__);
}
