[SOLVED] CB Gallery as repository for single users only admin can upload/manage

Hi, I would like to use CB Gallery as a repository for files and videos. Every single user must have it's own private area where he can see he's own videos and files. User is not allowed to upload or manage files. Only admins can upload and manage files in user profile.

Is it possible? At the moment in my tests it seems not possible. Right?

If not possibile, would you considere this as a very usefull feature in next releases?

Thanks in advance.

You can set the create access on a per gallery type. So you can set Albums, Photos, Videos, Files, etc.. to only allow a specific view access level to create albums and media. CB Gallery already provides each profile with a profile specific gallery. So once installed you'll just need to adjust the create access parameters. You can do this globally within CB Gallery > Parameters or you can just set it specifically for the profile gallery by adjusting the Gallery tab parameters.

I already setted those parameters in the plugin. I've setted that only special users can create video/files. Anyway:
1) user is still able to manage it's files even if he cannot upload, but he can erase, edit...
2) as super admin I cannot upload files in the user profile.

Something misconfigured or a bug?

1) user is still able to manage it's files even if he cannot upload, but he can erase, edit...

If they're the owner of the media then they can manage it (edit, delete, etc..). Uploads to a gallery default set the owner of the media to whomever owns the gallery. In this case it's the profile owner. You can change the owner by editing the media after upload, but there's no way to change it beforehand for the gallery tab or gallery field usages.

2) as super admin I cannot upload files in the user profile.

Ensure your Moderator View Access Level is set correctly within CB > Configuration > Moderation. Moderators are exempt from upload access controls.

One way to have what you're wanting us probably a Custom HTML field combined with the CB Gallery Bot to substitute in a custom gallery since it won't have the owner set to the profile owner. This would be done as follows in a Custom HTML field.

Description: Prepare content using CMS Content plugins: Yes

The profile owner should have no management permissions for any files uploaded to that gallery. It should also be specific to each profile the field displays on. Its parameters can be adjusted globally within CB Gallery > Parameters or inline like the following example.

Moderator View Access Level is setted to Special ( Author, Manager, Super Users ). But still as Super Admin I cannot even see the user tab in his profile.

Then most likely the tab and or plugin are not accessible. Ensure both CB Gallery plugin and its Gallery tab are public and published. If you want the tab private then use CB Privacy and its forced privacy controls on the tab to force it to private. Private tabs using CB Privacy are accessible to the profile owner and moderators only. If still not visible then review your CB Gallery configuration carefully.
