Title: Admin pubblic album Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Admin pubblic album * Resolved [Willyilnegro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/willyilnegro/) * (@willyilnegro) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-pubblic-album/) * Good morning, it is now more than a year that I use your [plug-ing] and I repeat my congratulations. I’ve found that the latest updates have changed the management of the albums in relation to the management of the owners and users. I have seen that currently all albums are visible and editable by all, even those [not pubblic]. The alternative seems to be the decommissioning of the management of the albums( Table VII-A [Album Admin]), but this eliminates the visioone of album ownership. Therefore, I ask if there is an intermediate solution, similar to that of a time( where you could see and use only the albums of ownership) with the ability to do the same with public albums? * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-photo-album-plus/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-photo-album-plus/) Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * Plugin Author [Jacob N.

I noticed that currently everybody can edit a public album, that is not good, one should have wppa_admin rights to do so. This will be corrected in the next version. * Thread Starter [Willyilnegro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/willyilnegro/) * (@willyilnegro) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-pubblic-album/#post-4954877) * our need is that each user can see and edit only his own albums as well as public ones. While the users should not be enabled to see the albums of the other users. The public albums are collections of pictures of several people, that’s why everyone of them should be enabled to edit titles and tags in there. Finally, the most important would be that everybody is enabled to create new own albums, Currently that’s not possible, if Tab VII-A (album admin) is disabled; if Tab VII-A (album admin) ist activated, every user can see all the albums. That’s not good! * Plugin Author [Jacob N.

( 0 = none, not unlimited ! ). In Table VII-B1 you enable the feature. * Users can edit their own photos, also in public albums. See the edit link in the photo description box in the slideshow. It must be enabled in Table VII- D2 * Thread Starter [Willyilnegro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/willyilnegro/) * (@willyilnegro) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-pubblic-album/#post-4954966) * All the settings that you told me in your last post are already activated. But they are usable only if the corresponding (Album Admin) is activated on Tab VII- A n(as I wrote you in my last posts). But the consequences are that even the albums of the other users are shown. . . So the problem is there again. My wishes would be that: a) when Tab VII-A is activated, it should NOT be possible to see the albums of other users or that: b) if the control Tab VII-A is disactivated, it shall be possible to add new albums. Both solutions would be fine, so it doesn’t matter which one you can realize. * Plugin Author [Jacob N.

Yes, i indeed created recently this problem what should be corrected asap. It will be fixed in the release version of 5.3.9. If you want to patch it right now, edit wppa-common-functions.php, around line 610: It reads: * ``` . // See for given album data array or album number else { // Album Administrator has always access if ( current_user_can('wppa_admin') ) return true; // If all albums are public if ( ! wppa_switch('wppa_owner_only') ) return true; ``` * Change to: * ``` . // See for given album data array or album number else { // Administrator has always access if ( current_user_can('administrator') ) return true; // If all albums are public if ( ! wppa_switch('wppa_owner_only') ) return true; ``` * i.e. change `current_user_can('wppa_admin')` into `current_user_can('administrator')`. This will fix it. * Thanx for the report. * Thread Starter [Willyilnegro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/willyilnegro/) * (@willyilnegro) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-pubblic-album/#post-4954971) * thank you for all, it is now as before.

Breetvelt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/opajaap/) * (@opajaap) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-pubblic-album/#post-4954988) * Yes, i just discovered this, almost at the same time as you did. There is another place where ‘administrator’ should be ‘wppa_admin’: * wppa-album-edit-autosave.php around line 105 should read: * ``` $album_owner = $wpdb->get_var($wpdb->prepare("SELECT owner FROM ".WPPA_ALBUMS." WHERE id = %s", $edit_id)); if ( ( $album_owner == '--- public ---' && ! current_user_can('wppa_admin') ) || ! wppa_have_access($edit_id) ) { wp_die('You do not have the rights to edit this album'); } ``` * You can also wait until later this day i will release 5.3.9 where it is all fixed. I am working down the checklist at this very moment. * Thread Starter [Willyilnegro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/willyilnegro/) * (@willyilnegro) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-pubblic-album/#post-4954989) * Thank you very much Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) The topic ‘Admin pubblic album’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/wp-photo-album-plus.svg) * [WP Photo Album Plus](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-photo-album-plus/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-photo-album-plus/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-photo-album-plus/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-photo-album-plus/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-photo-album-plus/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-photo-album-plus/reviews/) ## Tags * [User Login](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/user-login/) * 10 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Willyilnegro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/willyilnegro/) * Last activity: [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-pubblic-album/#post-4954989) * Status: resolved
