Gallery permission not working right
« on: November 19, 2008, 12:16:35 pm »
SMF 1.1.7
Gallery PRO 1.4.5
Tiny Portal 1.0.5

Hi Hacks,
Got a question on permissions. I have a post-count membergroup "OVA Rookie" whose member permissions are set to not allow them to add pictures to galleries.

But one OVA Rookie was able to upload a picture today in spite of that. I've verified the permission is correct, so is there something else I need to do?
Thanks,
Sarah

Is the post member group their primary member group?
Also I believe if the user is part of multiple groups if one of the groups has permission to upload then it overrides any denys from any other group.

Yes, it's their primary group, and no, that is their only membergroup.

I have a OVA Rookie test member account with no posts, and I just uploaded a picture with that membership to verify.

Gallery's still allowing OVARookies, with no posts, to upload pictures.

It is a bug currently does not work with Post Count based groups.

Okay, Hacks, thanks for the update. Hope it'll be fixed in a future version.  ;)

Off topic: Hi, Docpixel, small world! ;) (Airy on Admin Zone)

On topic:

I hope this will be fixed too, it seems to be a problem with SMF 2 Beta 4 as well.

Can I bump this again? It's becoming an increasing problem for me, as I gain members, some of whom just want to put images in galleries.

Any plans for fixing it?

Hello?

Since I did purchase this feature, I have an expectation that it will be fixed at some point. And until then... at least a response or update.

I'm sad to report that this is still a problem in 2.5. Members who don't have permission to add pictures can add them.  :(

Could you perhaps put them in a standard (non post based group) for the time being so they are a member of two groups and then prevent gallery access from the std group?

I have post based groups but all my members are also part of the regular members group where i prevent access to uploading in the gallery. i will double check again but I believe this works and might be a solution for you.

Here here.  I need this functionality too. (post based group permissions)

As a temporary fix - for me and others I am guessing...  could you at least help with this?

I was thinking I would create a new user group for the sole purpose of allowing these members access to the gallery upload function.

How would I insert that new group ID en masse - using phpmyadmin, to all user accounts?

i.e... create new user group GalleryUploads... make ALL current members members of this new group... (until the post count group issue is resolved)

Thanks in advance.

Upon further LEARNING....

I see that since I only have a couple galleries, I just had to set the permissions in the usergroup permissions - under regular members to allow uploading of images, etc...  So I guess ignore my latest rants, I should be good to go for now! I don't really need post count based groups after all! :P

Amazing software.  Really.

Just checking back in, because this is still a problem. Is this scheduled to be fixed soon?
