Category Permissions Not Preventing Upload
 

Hi,

I've set up a handful of subgalleries that I want to prevent certain usergroups from posting into. I've built the galleries and changed the permissions to what I -think- looks right, and have set some usergroups to be "All No" for a specific gallery. They can't see it in the hierarchy ... but they CAN choose it as an upload target in "Upload" and it DOES upload the image (and then direct them there). What the heck am I doing wrong?

I cant say we would need to see how your setting permissions.

Just as an example:

Top-level gallery (not a category): Can view, no moderation, can post images, YYYYNNYYYYYY
Nested category: Cannot view, no moderation, cannot post images, NNNNNNNNNN (all perms no)

A user in the group with these permissions cannot see the nested gallery but CAN select this as an Upload destination, CAN upload pictures into it, and then CAN see the rest of the category once they're taken into it via the upload.

Never mind, we reorganized each of the nested categories into their own top-level category and set the permissions on the top-level category and it's fine now. But that still is something you guys might want to check out. =]

Like I said without seeing what you where doing and how your permissions where set it is near impossible to say what your issue was or if its simply a matter that you needed to reset permissions.
