Is there way force users to register to view inside album?

is there any reason why when you go to log in on blackjack code, it no longer takes you back to where you came from but leaves you at the login on screen.

e.g you click on gallery, its takes you to login, you login, it leaves you at login rather than returning you to the gallery from where you came

This is the patch for 2.1:

        /* Make sure we have permission to view this item */
        $ret = GalleryCoreApi::assertHasItemPermission($item->getId(), 'core.view');
+       if (!$ret && $item->getCanContainChildren()) {
+           /* We also need viewSource permission to see the contents of an album */
+           $ret = GalleryCoreApi::assertHasItemPermission($item->getId(), 'core.viewSource');
+       }
        if ($ret) {
            if ($ret->getErrorCode() & ERROR_PERMISSION_DENIED) {
                list ($ret2, $anonymousId) = GalleryCoreApi::getPluginParameter(

'loginRedirect' in modules/core/classes/GalleryCapabilities.class has 'return' => true, so it should return you to the album after you login.

sure it does.

sweet!! thanks mindless, you ROCK!!

there's plenty of information in this topic about how the permissions should be setup. try adding "view all" for everyone to the album (not to subitems), then remove view all from the album (apply to subitems), now add just "view" to the album (not to subitems). also add "view all" for registered users group to all subitems.

I thought you didn't want your guests to view the photos, just "Registered Users"?

Please read my post above and follow permission settings where I mention "For albums containing images"

Please can someon help ?
i hade worke this for the old version but on this it downt work
and the help you give downt work

http://www.blubbs.com is my page

Hi all,

I understand the process, however please note Im not making any changes to the code, I do not mind the screen that says this album has no items.

However what I didnt make clear is that I have 20 albums, once I get to this stage:

For albums containing images:
--- Everyone: [core] View item
--- Registered Users: [core] View all versions

Isnt there an easier way so I can apply these perms to the all the albums in the root rather then do each album one by one, its taking me ages.

I basically want to apply Everyone: [core] View item without subfolders/items, so I can do it in one hit?

Does this make sense or am I confused?

I installed this on the most recent gallery version and it works great. I have just one question though. On the main page, guests can view albums and highlighted images but when they click on an album they are prompted to log in. However, they can still see the random image block which they can then click and browse through all the thumbnails.

Is there a way to disable the random image block until a user logs in?

Thanks

Hi All,

Had been happiy using this patch on gallery 2.1 now have upgraded to the latest and greatest it does not seem to work
The showitem.inc seems very different and it looks like most of the functionality is already in there, however i cant get it to do what i am after

i want to still have the original feature of all the albums (viewed from the main album) being available as a thumbnail but when a user clicks on one of these galleries if they are not logged in, they should be directed to the login page. So to sum up, i want my gallery to show the parent albums but if they click on it, they get the login page.

Any help would be great as i have had to take the gallery down til i sort this

Thanks again

please give more information about what you tried and what happened.
The current code still has the "/* Make sure we have permission to view this item */" block of code in ShowItem.inc...

Sorry mindless for the delay,

I applied the patch as mentioned further up this forum by yourself (version for 2.1) but when i included this code and set the galleries to Everyone: [core] View item but only other groups can view all and original items then i simply get a message saying gallery is empty

if i then log in as an account it will show me the galleries, but it does not show me the thumbnail view like it used to where you can click it and be prompted to enter your username and password to enter that gallery

What i used to have on the 2.1 version was the root gallery would contain the thumbnail of the galleries, and once you clicked on this, it would tell you you were not logged in and prompt for username and password,once entered, then divert you back into the gallery

Let me know if you need any more info

from your description, it sounds like the album itself has core.viewSource permission for guests, in addition to core.view. This would show you an empty album (since the contents of the album have no permission for guests) instead of redirecting to the login page.

I think the above code (GalleryCapabilities) still works, but it is deprecated. The code in config.php now (gallery 2.2.x) would be:

$gallery->setConfig('loginRedirect', array('href' => '/wplogin.php'));

you should redirect to WP login. since your G2 is embedded, when you login to WP then you are logged into G2 too. if you use the G2 login then you're in a weird state of being logged into G2 but not WP.

I'm trying to accomplish this feature but i am unable to on the version 2.2.3! Has anyone accomplished this ont he latest version. When I add the code above, i just get a blank white screen. HELP!
Here is what my showItems code looks like:

/* Make sure we have permission to view this item */
	$ret = GalleryCoreApi::assertHasItemPermission($item->getId(), 'core.view');
	if ($ret) {
	    if ($ret->getErrorCode() & ERROR_PERMISSION_DENIED) {
		list ($ret2, $isAnonymous) = GalleryCoreApi::isAnonymousUser();
		if ($ret2) {
		    return array($ret, null);
		}
		if ($isAnonymous) {
		    /* Redirect to login view */
		    return array(null, array('redirect' => $gallery->getConfig('loginRedirect')));
		}
		/* Try to redirect to default album */
		list ($ret2, $rootId) = GalleryCoreApi::getDefaultAlbumId();
		if ($ret2) {
		    return array($ret, null);
		}
		if ($item->getId() == $rootId) {
		    /* No permission on root album; redirect to login view */
		    return array(null, array('redirect' => $gallery->getConfig('loginRedirect')));
		}
		return array(null, array('redirect' =>
		    array('view' => 'core.ShowItem', 'itemId' => $rootId)));
	    }
	    return array($ret, null);
	}

	/*

I will try this. Is the code in 2.2.3 the same as the code that you developed this patch for. In you patch there is a reference to getPluginParameter
That statement doesn't exist in my code that I posted above. That is whats confusing me.

Thanks

Hi,

I have setup the gallery sucessfully to force users to register to view inside album, but it doesnt work properly when i run it from the embedded gallery2 in my joomla CMS site.

Here is the standalone gallery working fine:
http://importmedia.com.au/gallery/main.php

Here is the embedded version running from the Gallery2 Bridge extension for Joomla:
http://importmedia.com.au/index.php?option=com_gallery2&Itemid=33

Anyone help would be great. Thanks

I just upgraded to version 2.2.4 and wanted, as always after the last updates, to include the four above mentioned lines again. But this time the "Make sure we have permission to view this item" block is missing.

I now added the whole block again:

   if (!$ret && $item->getCanContainChildren()) {
           /* We also need viewSource permission to see the contents of an album */
           $ret = GalleryCoreApi::assertHasItemPermission($item->getId(), 'core.viewSource');
       }
	if ($ret) {
	    if ($ret->getErrorCode() & ERROR_PERMISSION_DENIED) {
		list ($ret2, $isAnonymous) = GalleryCoreApi::isAnonymousUser();
		if ($ret2) {
		    return array($ret, null);
		}
		if ($isAnonymous) {
		    /* Redirect to login view */
		    return array(null, array('redirect' => $gallery->getConfig('loginRedirect')));
		}
		/* Try to redirect to default album */
		list ($ret2, $rootId) = GalleryCoreApi::getDefaultAlbumId();
		if ($ret2) {
		    return array($ret, null);
		}
		if ($item->getId() == $rootId) {
		    /* No permission on root album; redirect to login view */
		    return array(null, array('redirect' => $gallery->getConfig('loginRedirect')));
		}
		return array(null, array('redirect' =>
		    array('view' => 'core.ShowItem', 'itemId' => $rootId)));
	    }
	    return array($ret, null);
	}

Is that alright? It seems to work but I am not sure if it has some unwanted consequences...

I'm actually trying to accomplish this feat using the updated Gallery 2.3. If there is someone that can help me and let me know where to actually place the code in the ShowItem.inc file that would be FANTASTIC. The file now doesn't have the "Make sure have permission..." line. Thanks for the help.

I'm a new user of Gallery 2.3 and want the same functionality originally described at the beginning of the post: Album thumbnails to be visible to guests, but when clicked by a guest prompt them to register.
I read through this thread and the mentioned patch doesn't seem like it will work in 2.3, the showitem.inc appears to have been drastically modified from previous versions. I don't even see references to core.view or core.showitem in the file, so either they have been removed in favor of another method, or they have been buried in another layer.

Anyone have any insight in how to get this to work in 2.3? Or maybe where else to dig around if things have been moved out of showitem.inc?

DJSigma.....you're the best

My gallery is integrated with phpbb3 so I need google to have the ability to view the picture so that the page gets indexed.
Also I noticed that instead of just displaying the login box the page is redirected to the login url.
