Can my members make truly private albums?

24Hours · September 5th, 2006, 09:23 PM

Hi, I know my Members can have their own Member Albums, but anyone can see their images if they are a Member too. Is there a way for them to make a gallery or album that no one can see, unless they give them a password or by some other means? I am thinking specifically about this person:

Member wants to have a family album but doesn't really want pictures of his kids, wife, and other things out for public view, able to be seen by any other Member. He wants to use this as a personal album that he can share with family and friends only.

Can this be done or does this capacity currently exist? I have the newest version as I just purchased the software and had it installed a week ago.

Thanks in advance!

yes when they create an album there is a checkbox that says public or private. If they mark it private no access can be given unless the password is given

I cannot see this option anywhere. Can you tell me where exactly it is?

Im using the latest Photopost with IPB integration.

In admin edit usergroups you set that users are allowed albums and in admin admin options personal albums are turned on. You will see a MY ALBUMS link on the menubar

Can PhotoPost disable the ability to create private albums?

No there is no way to disable just that you can enable or disable albums in general. If you allow albums they can create private ones
