Hello everyone,
I am struggling to find out how to set user permissions in zp 1.4.6
I have 4 different users, not using groups yet.
3 of them are supposed to see all albums (all of them are unpublished in this private gallery), which works perfectly.
but the 4th user should see only 4 albums and should be able to upload into one of them.
The uploading-permissions work, but no matter what I try, that 4th user can either see .. nothing at all, all albums an their content or all albums but can only see the content of the 4 albums I want him to see. Is there no way to show him only the 4 albums he can actually access?
Thanks for the support

These are the setting I use when the user can see all albums, but can see only the content of 4 of them .. for the rest it shown just a question mark instead of the album thumbnail and the albums are empty.

Unfortunately it doesn't say anthing about these settings on the site you posted
When you aren't logged in, you can't see anything but the login screen
So what you are saying is that you cannot hide albums at all .. just lock its content. Thats a pitty, but ok.
Where can I find the setting to show a lock image instead of a question mark? I just realized .. for albums that use a specific image instead of the lastet, it even shows the thumbnail, even without access permission to that album. So I really would like to replace that by a lock if possible.
EDIT:
errrf .. I think I just found that setting. But in the description it says the lock is only shown if the user has no password. But obviously when you are already logged in but dont habe permission for an album .. it doesnt work?
Users can have their own default language. If set that takes priority.
The lock image is shown unless a password has been entered already.
So it's not possible to replace neiter the questionmark nore the thumbnail .. too bad. I hope this option will be implemented in the future or .. even better .. it will be possible to completely hide unaccessible albums - that would be perfect.
Thanks für your time
Completely hiding is also possible on the theme side but as said will confuse pagination. If there is maybe another way via filters/plugin I cannot answer at the moment. Actually I have admit I rarely use these features myself (a former colleague did). You can always open a ticket to suggest something.
Note that after you save the settings the checkboxes are all checked again but the settings are saved.
That is probably a bug.
