Probably been asked before I just cant seem to find it. So here goes. In a site I have put together at http://www.crwildlife.com I have an issue with the full sized images being viewable when I do not want this. I am using a slightly modified version of the Matrix theme and I simply want to remove the ability for people to see the full sized images.


Gallery version (not just "2"):2.3-RC1
PHP version (e.g. 5.1.6):
PHPInfo Link (see FAQ):
Webserver (e.g. Apache 1.3.33):
Database (e.g. MySql 5.0.32):
Activated toolkits (e.g. NetPbm, GD):
Operating system (e.g. Linux): Linux
Browser (e.g. Firefox 2.0): Firefox

Remove the view full sized permission for the everybody user.

I thank you for the reply however I dont see that option. I saw an option for "Everybody" to view all versions and when I changed that to resized only it broke the install and the gallery couldnt be viewed. So what is the exact setting you are asking me to change because I dont see anything mentioning "view full sized" like you say.

login, edit permissions of the item you want to change.
remove the "Everybody [core] View all versions "
add the "Everybody [core] View item "
add the 'Everybody [core] View resized version(s)'

Please update the codex if the directions are not clear enough.
Yes We know the UI of permissions needs improvement care to fix it?

Almost there. Now I can see the thumbnails and all however when I click on the image to see the 'resized' version it doesnt come up. Yet I did exactly what you said to do by adding those two permissions and removing the other.

Shoot! I thought for sure I was gonna get this fixed especially with someone with almost 12000 posts! I thank you very much for trying so I guess I have to give a shout out to anyone else that might know how to fix this problem could you please drop a message here detailing how its done using the Matrix theme?

Got it. You have to add "View Original Version" also. Now I can see everything correctly without the Full Size.
