security question
« on: February 02, 2004, 10:38:06 am »
Hello,
I made my gallery available only for registered users. But I noticed that any user can browse the pictures by typing this url :
http://mywebsite.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/pic1.jpg
He has to know the name of the picture of course, but anyway is there a mean to prevent someone from doing it ?
Thank you.

no! That's the way all galleries work (or, generally speaking, the whole www works). There's currently a discussion on the dev board (non-publicly) - there's a way to avoid this, but it's rather resources-eating and hasn't been coded yet (just an idea, not more). If you have pics that must remain private under all circumstances, don't publish them on the internet at all!
