security setting?
« on: January 14, 2015, 11:06:24 pm »
I want guests to be able to view the gallery, but not post.

I have a category set up with guest set to view, and the other permissions turned off.

Log out  of the forum, and I can't see the gallery without logging in again.

What am I missing?

Under admin, general permissions, I have View SMF Gallery checked, as well.

Can they see the gallery tab at all? If so that is most likely a issue with the category permission setup.
If they can't see the gallery tab it is an issue with the admin -> permissions for guests.

They see the gallery tab on the menu at the top, but clicking on it gets them a login prompt.  Not throwing any errors in any logs.

Ok so they can't see the main gallery itself at all. Recheck permissions in the admin  -> permissions then modify guests. Make sure they have the "View Gallery" permission under SMF Gallery. Other thing you can try is clearing the cache in Admin -> Maintenance but this shouldn't be an issue.

Yes, they have "view gallery" in admin/permissions.

I will try the cache clearing.

no joy, clearing the cache under admin/maintenance did not alter the behaviour

Do you have a link you can send me. I have never seen this occur before.
Did you change any of the gallery code itself? Or installed any other mods that might interfere with it?

I am using portamx for the portal

No other mods, I think.
 PM on the way with a link and account.

It's up.

No change in behaviour.

If I remove and reinstall the gallerypro package, all photos and categories would remain intact?

Thanks for your help.  In the end it was a corrupted file (well reinstall the package helped) and a permission issue as you suspected.

Removed and reinstalled the GalleryPro package, then:

Turned on "allow guests to browse the forum"
Turned off guest view on all boards.

Now they can see the gallery, and not the forum as I'd intended.

Thanks again for your help.

Wow that is crazy. Haven't seen that happened before glad we were able to figure it out though.
