Topic: per_member_upload to use original username?

[Teme]

Very odd. Still can't reproduce the problem, even with newconfig=true...

That's strange Maybe it's only me... But if no one else complains about this problem maybe it's better for you to forget it. I didn't need the first time installation as I configured it by hand after I couldn't get it to work and now I can change all settings normally.  


One suggestion for per_member_upload though. It would be good to allow admins to post to other albums as now all uploads go straight to the album of their username. Now I must first upload everything in my own album and then afterwards move to place where I want it. Some kind of ecception album where everyone could still post although per_member_upload option is enabled would also be good addition.
...just suggestion.

It's sounding like a bug, another person has reported the same problem...

And I like the admin idea, I've added it to the to do list. Hopefully I'll get to it soon!

Ok, the admin idea's done. Admins can now select an upload directory, even when per_member_upload=1.

Thanks!

per_member_upload
Turning this option on will force users to upload photos into their own directory. They will not be allowed to pick a category, and will not be allowed to upload into any other directory. If a directory for that user does not already exist, one will be created when that user uploads their first photo. They will no longer be presented with a "category" list, any photos they upload will automatically be saved into their personal directory.

This is a nice feature, but maybe one more option could be added.  How about the option to upload only to a certain directory (Ex... "New Uploads").  This would be even better if you could assign new users to one directory then trusted user to there own directories....  

[Mike Bobbitt]

Yep, that makes sense. If I end up doing your "groups" idea that should take care of it, so long as I define a "default" group for new users...

One of my users uploeaded three pictures at the same time and all got the 0same thubmnail that's the thumb of first pic. I ude imagemagick to make the thumbnails... what's wrong

[Mike Bobbitt]

It's a known problem with Image Magic. Have a look at the end of this thread:

http://perl.cdnarmy.ca/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=album.pl_features;action=display;num=1027796188

[Teme]

btw, would it be possible to display the nick name on recent page instead of the usernames. The album already displays the changed nick on albums and on album frontpage but it's quite confusing as recent page displays different names that are the original usernames. Look example here: http://www.slayer66.com/cgi-bin/album/album.pl?album=:recent

[Mike Bobbitt]

Yeah, the info on the recent uploads page needs to be changed around a bit. I never got around to updating it, but I've added your request to the to do list.

Thanks

Is there a mod or a way to put a drop down menu that shows all the uploaded pic of a member. This drop down will be put below it's name in the yabb forum in it's every post.

I think vb has this functions. The forum of www.arofanatics.com uses something like this..

Thanks

[Mike Bobbitt]

Hmmm. I'll have to think about that one, it'd be fairly involved...
