I want to force users to login when they come to the page. I can make a "band aid" fix to make this work, but was wondering if there was a setting to require this.

Second, is there a way to allow new users to register a user ID and password for themself? And/or register a new user name, but require a gallery admin to approve the account before it is activated?

Third, if users forget their user ID and/or password, is there a change that I can set to allow users to either request their information, or change it via e-mail or something?

Thank you in advance,
Brent

On the site I support, we do this by permissions - all albums can only be read by logged in members, and we have a different splash page for before log in. <A HREF="http://mcc.myrrh.net" TARGET="_blank">MCC Digital</A>

Would this work for you?

I thought there was a fix for this, but can't find it. Wouldn't be too hard to cobble together. You'd have to create a new password and send that, you can access the current one.

I would like to implement your MCC Digital login fix. What is the code for the splash page?

Sorry, I don't have time at the moment to sort it out from the myriad of other changes on that site. I may have posted snippets of this to other threads, but I can't find them at the moment.
