It's a drawback of the current coppermine code that users can't create albums in public categories, but not a "bug": we never said the software was capable to do this. There's no hack to add this feature to coppermine. You're welcome to code it and post your solution.

This would be a big enhancement. As another newbie, I really am impressed by Coppermine, but the inability to "share" catagories with other users really, REALLY limits the utility of the package as a collaborative instrument. I am not able to code the solution, but can testify as to how useful and desirable this feature would be.

OK, I am brandnew in Coppermine, but familiar with web-programming in php (sorry for my english, I´m German).

I didn´t want to ask AGAIN, if registered Users can create albums (yes I have been searching this forum  ;) )

Has this feature already been included (what govern said before)???

And another thing:
I´ve looked directly in the MySQL Database and in table _usergroups THERE ACTUALLY IS a column named "can_create_albums". Could it be, that the "registered user can create albums" feature is already included, but still not viewable over the admin panel website?

I set it to 1 now and will see what happpens...

Answers would still be great about what´s the news on that feature (searching ALL subjects about this feature takes for ever  ::) )

Thx so far,
Steffi
