Okay, @marxmann I have resolved my issue by updating the child theme files even though there are no WooCommerce files in that directory, and even though it shows as being the same version number as my child theme (3.0) it nonetheless solved the issue of the outdated files.

There are only 3 files in my child theme folder:
functions.php
screenshot.png
style.css

To be noted: it cleared my functions.php to blank, but I saved the contents of that file and pasted it back in so don’t forget to do this if you have custom code in your functions.php file.

Hmm, it seems that after logging in as a different user no new album is created for it. Is the setting “Owners Only” required to be checked in order for this to function correctly?

If this is the case, how do I allow users to see other users albums? The site this will be implemented on is a scrapbooking site, where users share their designs as well as contribute to community projects. So there need to be both communal albums anyone can upload to and private albums only the user can upload to but anyone can see.

Unless I am misunderstanding the “Owners only” to mean: It restricts views and upload/edit functions?

Here are my settings: (the ones I think apply to this issue)

Owners only : Unchecked
Uploader Edit : Checked
Grant an album : Checked
Grant album name : Display Name
Grant parent : Members
Max user albums : 1 (this needs a ‘none’ option if it isn’t overridden by the following setting)
User create Albums : Unchecked

EDIT: Okay after checking “Owners Only” I find it does exactly what I wanted if I change the owner of the community albums to public ?? This also prevents uploads to the parent albums so all my questions are answered with a little experimentation.

Howdy,

I just found this plugin as a replacement for the paid gallery management software I was using previously for a client, and it looks great and works wonderfully. I’ve managed to get it all set up and functional except for one small (and hopefully very easy to fix) issue. Well two really, but one is a request.

The issue I am having is the multi-column display. If you look at a demo site I have set up to test the plugin here: https://demo.skyedesign.co.za/beyond-vision you can see the albums display vertically one after another, while the page width certainly allows for more columns at a reduced width each. The theme is responsive, and I’d prefer 2 columns to eliminate all that wasted space.

I’ve gone through your various options and read as much as I can find on your test site and here, but can’t find any way of making this happen. I notice on your docs & demos site it is displaying in two columns pretty much how I want mine: https://wppa.opajaap.nl/members/

The second is a request: How can I prevent users from uploading to the parent album? The goal is to have an auto-created album for each registered user under the Members (or whatever it is named) parent album, and then any number of admin created albums for specific purposes that users can still upload into as they need. What I don’t want is them to upload to the parent albums and create chaos in the listings. Selecting a parent category should only show the albums contained in them, and not any images. Images should only end up in the child albums.

Secondary to this is, if some code restriction is used to prevent uploading into an album which is not a child, is it still possible to have single listing albums (with no parent) that have no children and allow uploads into these albums?

I suppose a checkbox in the Album Managmement: “Prevent uploads to this album” might work, not sure the effort that would entail though.

Many thanks, in anticipation of your reply ??
Skye.
