What are you trying to report though?

If you allow unregistered users the ability to post photos or comments they are going to post them?

I do not see any issue there. If you do not wish unregistered users to post comments or photos you can turn off that ability in Admin => Edit Usergroups.

Hi Chuck, I hope to succeed to explain well..

simple the fact that the photo was without owner, strange because for the unregistered users not there is the link "upload photo", and the owner of photo it says that it was logged in at that moment

no, unregistered not allowed

Not from what I see here somehow you allowed a guest to upload as everything is permissions based in our software.

See his userid on the photo userid 0. Unless you give guests posting permission I dont see any other way this would happen

Feel free to post a test login here

[zigorob]

I has controlled newly, but I do not find nothing that permit to unregistered ti post photos...

but I am a newbie with PP...

f you want, I send you a admin accont privately

tnx

Hi Chuck, reopen this topic.... :-(

Please, see my gallery, many comment now are without owner...
many I have corrected them, but theare are some still

some users write me that they logged in gallery apparently ok, but when they try to write, upload or comment, these are anonymous.
Some time happens, not always, but frequently.

Temporary solution? perhaps it must make that if the user ID is 0 it cannot write whit messate "you are not logged in, please contact administrator"

tnx in advance

This is indeed strange, I can't see anything that would suggest why this is happening. A userid of 0 means they dont have upload and if I try to go to the uploadphoto.php script I get an error and login.

Are these possibly user accounts that have been deleted from your system?

[zigorob]

Hi Michael,

No, this is real users, and this problem is creating many problems with users :-(

What can I do to help investigate the problem?

tnx

Check your photos table, do you have alot of photos with a userid of 0? How about your comments table?

[zigorob]

Hi Michael,

the owner of all photos with ID 0 I have adjust manually, but the comments I have not adjusted, are alot of comments.

Now I have checked the database with phpmyadmin, apparently without errors, but I am not a developer.

[Michael P]

Are you running an unmodified version of PhotoPost? Current version?

[zigorob]

Hi Michael,

the version is 6.1, the code is modified only from Chuck suggestions (see my topic here), other little modifications is only in sidebar or graphic

tnx
Rob

[Michael P]

I can't explain it; I don't get an upload option when I am on your site and I don't see how someone with a userid of 0 could.

[zigorob]

My impression is that it is a problem of coockies and IPB integraton.
The IPB forum users make the login, upload and comment, normally the 95%
Random, users some time make the login apparently correct, therefore they have the upload link in navigation menu, make the upload apparently correct, but the upload is anonymous.
Same for comments.

This happened to me too (integrated with SMF).
Only with one user.

Its a user that normally never go to the forum, and enter directly to PP, so when post a comment or upload a photo just have ID = 0.

If he go to the forum and post something, then no more problems in PP.

[zigorob]

Tnx Teck,

now I ask my users if it is the same situation

yes, seems a similar problem, and it happens very frequently.

see the recent comments at the end of the index: TevacPhoto

Reopen this topic for more information that can be useful, I hope...

If I open Photopost normally and click "send photos", I have this situation:

Immagine 3.jpg

the same situation if I open photophost after that the cookies in IPB forum is changed

Immagine 2.jpg

If the cookies is changet, I not result logged in (no name, no MP and no left menu in navigation bar) but I have admin link and send photos link in right menu on navigation bar.

In send photos windows, the info is related to my account, but my username not appear in the first table

In this situation, if I send a photo this appears anonymous

I hope to be useful to the developers
