Hello. My gallery can be found at www.doyougetme.net/gallery2 and i have 4 sub albums right now there. 3 out of the 4 albums dont allow public to post comments but 1 of the albums do. I have searched and searched and gone through this forum, but i still cannot find how to set it up so that [add comments] is set to default. There is help for G1, but cannot see how to configure G2.

I have tried setting up the permissions too, but still cannot find as to why I cannot. I have even completely re-installed the gallery hoping to find an option to turn on.

I can post comments if logged on, but not when not logged on.

Please help !

I am sorry if there has been a similar post as this already here, but I have searched for about 2 hours and still nothing.

Thanks

you can set this up by assigning the correct permissions to the Everybody group. The everybody group includes all guests of your website.

you can manage permissions for each album, subalbum, and/or item.
so if you want the guests to have the "add comment" permission, add the permission for subalbum x, browse to subalbum x, click edit permissions and assign "add comment" to the "everybody" group. select apply to subitems if the guests should be able to add comments to all subitems/subalbums of subalbum x.
