User Permission

plague

Hi,

I want to set up a way for different users to access only certain folders and not others. Is this possible?

To elaborate, this is my gallery structure.
UK -> London, Birmingham
France -> Paris, Strasbourg
Canada -> Toronto, Montreal

Now I want 1st set of users to have access to London and Toronto folders. Another set of users to have London, Montreal and Paris. Another for all of UK.

Currently from the permissions for user groups, I can only set permission for the primary folder (UK, France, Canada). Is there anyway I can do it for sub folders?

Alternative option is to set password for the specific folders. But that's a lot of passwords. I'd like to authenticate based on login authentication.

Please help me with how I can achieve this. Thank you.

I saw that. But it doesn't have the settings for the example I have given in my post. And also I'm encountering issues regarding albums when I set it by users. MySQL error.

Anyways, the link you have given doesn't do more than 1st lvl security. How can I apply it for sub folders?

You can only apply user rights to top level albums including all of their subfolders.
This is not bug but by design as Zenphoto is filesystem based (because of that you can directly upload via FTP). These checks would cause too much overhead.
