All my albums are for registred users only. But I don't like the look of an empty root album when a guest come across my site.

So I want all the thumbnails of all my albums also be visible to guests. But when they click on a thumbnail they have to be redirected to the login page to see the whole album.

I have already played around with the rights, but when I give the 'view item' rights to everybody than a guest is still able to go inside an subalbum and see all the available thumbs. I don't want that.

So basically I just want them to see all the thumbs in de root album and nothing more. How can I do that?

I am using gallery 2.3

This list a bunch of hacks people have done over the years:

The code in that thread may be way out of date, but it should get you going.

Thank you for pointing out the right page! I tried the patch and it worked like a charm!
