Joomla 3.10
PHP 7.4
CB 2.6.4
CB Gallery 2.5.0
GroupJive 3.5.0

I wish to enable my users be able to make comments on uploaded images. CB Gallery would appear to be the way to enable this. However, I want to restrict this to one specific place, ie I do not wish to allow it at user profile level - so have restricted Gallery tab access to Superuser only. I wish to use a GroupJive group for this purpose, then only users belonging to the group can take part in image critique, and everyone knows where to find images awaiting comment.
I have therefore enabled the Auto Action - System action (CB Groupjive - Gallery). However this enables Gallery in all groups. Is there a way of using the Conditions associated with the system action to limit it to a specific GroupJive group?

Yes, make a copy of the "CB Groupjive - Gallery" system action then in your copy under Conditions add the following.

Field: Custom > Value
Custom Value: [var2_id]
Operator: Equal To
Value: GROUP_ID_HERE

Replace GROUP_ID_HERE with the actual ID of your GJ group.

As for limiting comments you'll need to make a copy of "CB Gallery - Comments" system action then under Conditions add the following in your copy.

Field: Custom > Value
Custom Value: [var1_asset]
Operator: Is REGEX
Value: /^groupjive\./

That should ensure gallery commenting is only available for GJ galleries and the above gallery condition should ensure the gallery only displays on your specific group.

Thanks for your response, and apologies for the delay in responding.

At first I did not realise that the copy of the System Action appeared in the Auto Actions. However, once understood your solution worked perfectly.
