Which one of these is possible with photoplog lite and how?

1 -I would like to set up a member gallery. Some members are allowed to have a personal gallery. To do that I'll create a new usergroup where I'll put all the members that can have a personal gallery. All the members gallery should be visible by everyone in the forum, also from the guests.

2 - I would like to have a link in the nav bar that show all the members galleries ordered by member.

3 - Every member with a gallery could put a link in the signature with the address of his gallery.

Thanks for this wonderful piece of software :)

1) It's an inherent 'feature' in PhotoPlog that each user who uploads a file gets a gallery.
Example: http://www.photoplog.com/demo/pro/index.php?u=1 (http://www.photoplog.com/demo/lite/index.php?u=1) (the u=X part, X the same as the vB userid, will link to that person's gallery). Permissions on who can do what can be set in the Usergroup Manager.

2) Use the following to add a link to the gallery home in the navbar template:
Content visible to registered users only. 3) Users could add http://www.YOUR-DOMAIN.com/YOUR-PHOTOPLOG-DIR/index.php?u=X (X the same as the vB userid) in their signatures though this is good for cookie users only. Alternatively, you could add a link in postbit(_legacy) using:
Content visible to registered users only.

Thanks for the info. I imagine that is just the admin that can create new categories, or not?

I've thought of categories as private albums of each member but your solution is interesting. The only drawback I see is that a user that go to photoplog see just a bunch of pictures and cannot distinguish between one member and the other, or there's a mean?

Only the admin can create categories in the lite version, but by each image is some "posted by x" text to let you know who posted the image: http://www.photoplog.com/demo/lite/index.php
