PP5.1: Members Gallery THumb Not PResent

DJT · June 10th, 2005, 06:38 AM

When viewing the members gallery in gallery format, some members who have made albums and have all there photos in them do not have a thumbnail to click to enter their gallery. When I am logged out these members have no thumb, just the text link to go to their profile. When I login as webmaster, the users who had no thumbnail to enter their gallery do have one displayed and I can enter there gallery.

I beleive this would be category permissions!!

Say there image is private and while logged in you see but logged out you do not have permission to see.

Correct, and in this scenario there is no thumb to click at all effectively preventing someone from viewing that members gallery.

Even if there is no thumb they can click the gallery title and enter

There is no link for the gallery. Here are some screenshots so you can see what I am referring to.

Pic1.jpg shows what it looks like as someone who is not logged in. Notice the red squiggles I put in there to show the lacking index thumbnail for that particular gallery

Pic2.jpg is the same page but viewed while logged in as administrator. Notice the index thumbs are in place.

I guess we need more info on how you have it setup.

If I upload a photo to my private album it will not show as my last thumbnail.

If I upload a photo to a category that regular users dont have permission to view it will not show as my last thumbnail in members galleries.

Make sure your running 5.11 and try again cause I think I uploaded and testing both situations I can think of and members gallery displays fine.

I updated to PP5.11 and have the same result.

You would need to state explicitly what permissions you have set and how.

I have tried both scenerios stated above uploading to a private album and also to a category marked where unregistered users can not view images in that category.

In both tests I uploaded an image and then logged out. I see a thumbnail that is not the one I just uploaded so showmembers will not pull the one that people do not have access to see. Your install seems to do so on showmembers

so please explain your exact permissions. what cat your uploading too etc
