Hi there,

is there any addon for Gallery1 that makes it possible to create temporary users/autodelete users after a specified time?

What I like to do:
I'm playing around with G1 at the moment, because a friend is using it on his website.
He's the owner of a small locksmith's shop and he likes to create temporary accounts (e.g. valid for two weeks) for interested customers to show his photos. But he always forgets to delete this customer-accounts after two weeks:-(

Thanks a lot for your answers.

Hello,

this is currently not possible.

But it sounds like an interesting idea to.

An easy way would be to add an additional userfield e.g. called "validity" and if the time is expired the user can not longer log in.
From time to time the admin could look into the usermanagement and purge those users.

If you would like to see this feature, please make a RFE [1] on our sourceforge page [2]
It will go into th 1.7 development code as soon as 1.6 is released.
