Title: My Profile Link Missing!
Post by: balrogdiablo on September 21, 2006, 01:42:38 am
For some reason, the My Profile Link doesn't show up on my gallery in user mode (I have full admin powers). Anyone know why? Should I post any info from my theme?

My Profile  is under Admin menu and you don't have any Admin menu on user mode at all
but if it didn't apear on admin mode then you need to check if have installed any mod/plugin , something like final extarct

Yes it should be , as I said before if you've (as admin)  changed the mode to user mode you can't see any admin botton at all !
regular registred users will see it anyway (you can check it by creating a test register user)

From the docs (http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/docs/index.htm#admin_user_mode):
Quote
4.2 Admin mode & User mode

When you are logged in as an administrator, the script provides two modes of operation : Admin mode & User mode. You can switch between Admin & User mode by clicking on the corresponding link in the menu bar at the top of the screen.

[...]

When you are in user mode you are still logged in as an admin user, but the admin controls (the admin menu bar etc.) are hidden from the screen to give you a basic preview of what the page would look like for "regular users". However (as you still are logged in as admin), certain permissions and options in user mode will still look the same as if you were in admin mode; you can not use "User Mode" to see what a non-admin user is actually allowed to see. To see what a casual visitor can see and do on your site, simply log out. To see what a registered user can see and do on your site, create a test user account (non-admin) and log in with this particular user (when doing this it is recommended that you use two different browsers, NOT two instances of the same browswer, to view your site so you can stay logged in as admin on one and view what regular users see while making changes in admin mode. You will have to refresh the non-admin mode screen to see what changes you incorporated).
