I created gallery for a node, but only my user sees it.
Setting "public for all", but it is not remembered and again is set to private.

Hi,

I did not understand your post here. Could you explain little bit more about the issue?

thanks

See Gallery Assist settings - Others.

The parameter "Gallery Public Status:"

* privat: Only the owner can see the gallery.
* public: Public for all authenticated users.
* public for all: Public for all users and anonymous.

It is set to "privat" and I cannot change it to "public" or "public for all", it remains set to "privat".

I found some way out:

In /admin/user/permissions one should set "view gallery_assist_page content" permission for anonymous user.

Now everyone can see the gallery.

But the setting "Gallery Public Status:" still cannot be changed. It is set to "privat".

The workaround from #3 worked for me. It took me 2 days. :-)

I had already fixed the permissions as suggested in #3, but I still have the problem the original poster has - I am not able to set my gallery to public for all.

Same for me, tried now for a day.. Above suggested solution didnt work for me. Etried to change it in mysql with no success.

I doesn't have that "view gallery_assist_page content" nor "view gallery_assist_page" Only "view gallery_assist content" and that is checked.

I have exactly the same problem. And the checkbox "Display the download link" also in the "OTHERS" Section can't be deactivated anymore.

Same problem here.

Trying to create a gallery that everyone can view
but in

Site Configuration / Gallery Assist / Others / Gallery Public Status

Change to "Public for All",

save.

Check the field....it's back to "Privat"

It's driving me nuts!

TWD’s picture

Actually the work around suggested in #3 works....up to a point.

This module seems a bit buggy.

For some random reason, occaisionally an image will show as broken AND (this is were it gets really weird)
a Dowload dialogue box will pop up inviting you to download the gallery! It downloads something but
apparently without a MIME Type so it's not even viewable. Strange. This is on Firefox 3.5.9 if that helps.

Same problem here!

Is there no solution available? #3 is a possible workaround but no solution... and it does not work for me :-(

So, I had a look at the code and it looks like 'public_status' and 'ga_public_status' are mixed up or not always handled correctly. If I replace all 'public_status' with 'ga_public_status' it seems to work but I am not sure if this conflicts with the other settings for 'public_status'.

I have the same problem.

I have the same problems here.

#3 is *NOT* a solution here, it does not work for me.

#9 here too. I checked the field, save, look again, and it's back to "Privat".

System here is: Drupal 6.16, german, Apache, node-type gallery.

Hm, there is an option to enable gallery in page. Maybe i should try to use the node-type "page" instead of "gallery"?

Hi andyk and people,

The privat, public and public for all feature is currently displayed in the edit and settings form but it is obsolete. A functionality to this option is not contributed. It is historicaly so that I forget one day to comment the lines regarding this feature and have commited the code so. Please escuse me for this. I work currently on this and on other issues.
The goal is:
privat: Only I can see my gallery in case I am not finish or happy with its content or the content is realy very privat.
Public and Public for all: Here it is a idea I had. maybe the admin give gallery content free for all (anonymous included). In this case is the option Public for all enabled, but I want that only authenticated members from the site should see my galleries.
I need more time.
I had not answered in the hope I find a quick solution but it did not succeed.

@andyk

It is equal to which content types you assign the gallery functionality. Or page, book, forum topic, story, blog, image, other node types created from Gallery modules and self created content types.

Workaround #3 works for me (so far). thanks for that dreich77! I had spent 2 frustrating days trying to change the configuration settings just like #9.

Thans for working on this issue, which is in my mind extremely necessary. Any idea when you will be making the fix public?
Many thanks,

Other thing is I can't make visible the following 02 blocks at all.

Hello,

this functionality is now available. Here a little explanation.

  • privat: Only the owner can see the gallery.
  • public: This option limits the user "anonymous" to see the gallery in case that this user can see galleries.
  • public for all: The gallery is public for all roles that can see galleries.

Thank you for your patience and your interest

Regards
Juan Carlos

Sorry, Where is the solutions?

Many Thanks

jcmc’s picture

Hello milindras,

sorry I forgot to write the info. It is solved in the new version 1.16-alpha1.
It is not "mea culpa" that the tarball functionality not allow alphas, betas and release-candidate versions as recommended.

please check the work!

Thanks
Juan Carlos

Many Thanks for the reply. Is there any way to implement this on 6.x-1.15?
Because I have already installed this & have done many more changes to the codes & etc.
What is the best way?

Appreciate
Milindra

mbequelman’s picture

Hello,
Thank you for working in this area although I'm not sure this is what I was expecting it to work. I installed the new version, and I see how the admin can decide on public, private,...But I was hoping that when a user , not the admin, is creating a gallery he can decide if it is private or not, and if it is totally public or just public for friends. Am I missing something in my installation?

Mabel

jcmc’s picture

Hello milindras,

the only way I see is that you make a diff from your changed version and GA-1.15. After this you can update to the new version and as next step you have two possibilities:
1- apply your diff as patch and check if all your changes are good integrated or partially or not.
2- If partially or not, you should add your changes manually.

Regards
Juan Carlos

Hi, I was able to install the new module and I could now make the change to public for all. However, It is not going through. I still need to login for me to see the galleries, but the setting is selected as public for all.

Thanks,
Josh

Budasam’s picture

Hi, same problem for me too after upgrading to the version 6.x-1.16-beta1. Anonymous users cannot see the gallery. :(

Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi

Same problem here with the latest beta. The choice in the dropdown box is remembered, but the effect seems to be zero. Sorry about this. I like the idea behind this plugin very much, so I hope this issue gets solved soon.

i cant get this to work and i've been messing with it all day.

i am P*SSED! what a waste of time.

tubby’s picture

ok, i got it working with the developer version. not sure how but i think it was something related to permissions. anonymous users still can't see anything though which kinda sucks but i'm happy to at least have gotten this far.

prairiehippo’s picture

I ran into this issue - confused me greatly as I had set all permissions properly. Didn't even notice the Gallery Public Status drop down for a long time.

The problem I ran into was that there is a CSS conflict in the administration settings for this module - at least with the Admin module (http://drupal.org/project/admin). The permission drop box is contained in a division with the class ".gallery-assist-settings-left-half". In Firefox at least, this renders the dropbox un-clickable.

I removed the float attribute from the plugin css for that class and I was able to properly set the value. Hope this is of some use to someone.

Version: 6.x-1.9 » 6.x-1.18

I've updated the Gallery Assist to 1.18 and all galleries have disappeared for non-authenticated users! Public status is "public" for all galleries.
Now I have to change the public status for every gallery? But I have dozens of them. Is this normal?
Is there a way to use "public for all" as the default always?
How can I set "public for all" for all galleries at once?

dreich77’s picture

I've found your answer in another issue page. I've installed Gallery Assist Bulk module and set "public for all" for all galleries at once.

#36 Thanks a bunch, it seems to of at least let me select an option..

For others with Firefox that have this issue... do this..

Open FileZilla, go to sites/all/modules/gallery_assist/css/gallery_assist.css

Go down to line 17 where you see this.

.gallery-assist-settings-left-half {
float:left;

padding: 0 10px;
width:30%;
}

save, upload back to server, clear the cache, ctrl-f5 the firefox screen and your set...

nycm’s picture

removing line 17 from gallery_assist.css resolves the issue for chrome users as well.

sonews’s picture

I tried this solution and it fix my similar problem.. try this too

Go to Admin > Site Build > Gallery Assist
Click Assignments and at the bottom "Permissions settings"
You must allow this :
Gallery Assist (GA) settings::Common
Gallery Assist (GA): settings::Common::Public status
Gallery Assist (GA) settings::Common::Display this gallery as
Gallery Assist (GA) settings::Layout

Then Go to your gallery, click Edit you will have in Gallery setting a new item "common"....
In Common choose the value "public for all" click save that's all

i tried all solutions posted above but only this on works for me... tell me for you.

Hello all
none of the above worked for me....but a combination of various things solved the problem:

First i upgraded to the 6.1.19-beta
Then i installed and enabled Gallery Assist Bulk Operations
I then used gallery assist bulk to set the status of all galleries to public for all
Then I ran the following script on the database for good measure
UPDATE `gallery_assist` SET `ga_public_status` = 2 WHERE 1;
TRUNCATE `cache_gallery_assist_data`;

Then I cleared the Gallery Assist Cache. this seemed to be the clincher.

After that all galleries showed up
Hope that works out.
