Title: Password protection for the entire coppermine gallery
Post by: marwick on June 01, 2006, 07:40:11 pm

One of the features that is easy to implement and would mean a lot for people having private (e.g. familly) galleries is password protection for the entire site. This would mean that a user needs to register/log-on before accessing any picture in any gallery or even the front page.

I have managed to do this myself just by copying one php line (that checks if the user is logged on) to several php pages, but I guess it would be nicer if this was a feature of the product. Users that do not wish to use this feature could have a config switch to switch it on/off.

Thanks

Surely this already is a feature.

There used to be a simple hack for cpg1.3.x as well: http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg13x/docs/faq.htm#registeredUsersOnly
Make sure to use the most recent version before requesting new features.
