I'd like to know if someone visits /gallery that it displays a login page instead of a "guest" view.

I'd like users to have to be able to log in to the gallery before anything is visible.

Is this possible?

Thanks,
Carl

it is possible - you just need to change the permissions on the root album (and apply that to all sub-items):

1. copy the rights that are granted to 'Everybody' to the 'Registered Users' group.
2. Removing the rights from the 'Everybody' group

From then on, you'll need to be a registered user to be able to see anything and should be prompted to log on.

Thanks much Mark!

Not sure why I wasn't looking at the root album permissions. I kept checking for something in Site Admin.
