New install on 4.1.2. Couple questions...

1. When adding an album, it only appears in 'my albums' and not in the album gallery. I'd like to create albums that all users can view
2. Can I prevent certain usergroups from creating an album and/or adding pictures?

Thanks

Nope - this mod is a viewer - picture uploading is a built-in vB function

Check the album isn't set to private, then check the permission settings for the groups you want to see the album. All standard vB stuff and nothing to do with this mod I'm afraid.

Even if guests do not have permission to view albums, this mod will show the album thumbnail (unless you change the setting specified in the mod) however, they will still not be able to see the actual album content.

Yeah, that was pretty obvious stuff. I set the album as public when creating it.

As a test, I logged into the site as the Administrator and used the 'add album' drop down option from the drop down list that's part of the mod. When I go back into the 'album gallery' drop down option, nothing is there. If I go into the 'my albums' drop down option, the album is listed there.

I'm pretty sure the Administrator should have access to everything by default, so I'm not sure which specific usergroup permissions you're referencing. Any help would be greatly appreciated!


RESOLVED: I FOUND THAT THE ALBUMS ONLY SHOW UP AFTER UPLOADING PICS. Empty albums don't appear in the album gallery. Whoops!

Hello,

Can an administrator create a members album and every member can upload a picture inside ?

Because one album per member is a bit heavy :(

Thanks

when uploading pictures, do they upload to my forum's server or do these photos have to be hosted somewhere else?

An empty album uses no resources at all (if that's what you meant by 'heavy').

You set up a folder to store users pictures when you installed vbulletin.

I think both you guys are in the wrong place. Instead of installing modifications you should be learning how the basic unmodified vbulletin works.

In picture gallery..how can i delete the picture name above the image?

Great jOB! Installed with ease on my site.

I do have a question.
Is there a way to create a side block so I can pull an image at random from the gallery?

No I mean i d'ont want an album per member but only one album for all members...

I have to agree with Videx - if you spent some time learning how vB works (or even reading the older posts on this thread) it would save me time providing vB support instead of Mod support :)

Check out the groups section in your user profile - you will find you can create groups with group pictures.
