+Permissions on photos + +

Each photo has a privacy level (a lock). Each user also has a privacy level (a key). There are 5 privacy levels:

+
    +
  1. None
    2. +
  2. Contacts
    3. +
  3. Friends (which is higher than a contact)
    4. +
  4. Family (which is higher than a friend)
    5. +
  5. Admins (which is higher than any other level)
    6. +
+ +

Higher levels have permissions on lower levels. For a given user, the higher the privacy level, the more photos he can see.

+ +

For example, if photo "peter_wedding-0024.jpg" has "Family" privacy level, then:

+ + +

A user than has no permission to see the content of a category won't see the category itself, not even its title. The same principle applies to a tag.

+ +

You can set the privacy level of a user on Administration » Users » Manage screen.

+ +
+ +
+Permissions on categories + +

If privacy levels do not fit your needs, you can also manage permissions on categories for a user or a group. You can manage permissions on photos and categories at the same time, without conflict.

+

You can forbid access to categories. Switch the category access type to "private" if you want to manage permissions.
