Make private albums public?

[dog-tag]

Hey all,

Been reading alot on here lately, and without this forum I would be lost! Fantastic site

Anyway, at the moment I have users uploading "private albums" and I really don't want this happening.

Is there a way for me to make them all public?
Or to stop letting people create private albums?

I don't want them to not have the album feature, but at the same time I don't want things being all private. It's a public board and I want it that way.

Can anyone advise?

Thanks,
Gilesy

You can't really do that unless you edit the template to not allow that option to be selected. I think you just need to remove it from the album_edit template:

<li><label for="rb_albumtype_private"><input type="radio" id="rb_albumtype_private" name="albumtype" value="private" {vb:raw formdata.albumtype_private} tabindex="1" /> {vb:rawphrase private}</label><p class="description">{vb:rawphrase private_only_visible_contacts_moderators}</p></li>

Only spotted your reply now Lynne... thanks very much for writing back.
I will try this later on this evening, and will report back how it went!

Thanks again
