| 4 | <p>Each photo has a <strong>privacy level</strong> (a lock). Each user also has a privacy level (a key). There are 5 privacy levels:</p> |
---|
| 5 | <ol> |
---|
| 6 | <li>None</li> |
---|
| 7 | <li><em>Contacts</em></li> |
---|
| 8 | <li><em>Friends (which is higher than a contact)</em></li> |
---|
| 9 | <li><em>Family (which is higher than a friend)</em></li> |
---|
| 10 | <li><em>Admins (which is higher than any other level)</em></li> |
---|
| 11 | </ol> |
---|
| 12 | |
---|
| 13 | <p>Higher levels have permissions on lower levels. For a given user, the higher the privacy level, the more photos he can see.</p> |
---|
| 14 | |
---|
| 15 | <p>For example, if photo "peter_wedding-0024.jpg" has <em>"Family"</em> privacy level, then:</p> |
---|
| 16 | <ul> |
---|
| 17 | <li>Peter (who is an <em>"Admin"</em>) will see the photo because <em>"Admins"</em> can see all photos</li> |
---|
| 18 | <li>Beth (who is a <em>"Family"</em> member) will also see the photo</li> |
---|
| 19 | <li>Mary (who is just a <em>"Friend"</em>) won't see the photo</li> |
---|
| 20 | </ul> |
---|
| 21 | |
---|
[8698] | 22 | <p>A user that has no permission to see the content of a album won't see the album itself, not even its title. The same principle applies to a tag.</p> |
---|
[6023] | 23 | |
---|
| 24 | <p>You can set the privacy level of a user on <span class="pwgScreen">Administration » Users » Manage</span> screen.</p> |

[8698] | 31 | <p>If privacy levels do not fit your needs, you can also manage permissions on albums for a user or a group. You can manage permissions on photos and albums at the same time, without conflict.</p> |
---|
[6023] | 32 | |
---|
[8698] | 33 | <p>You can forbid access to albums. Switch the album access type to |
---|
[5182] | 34 | "private" if you want to manage permissions.</p> |
---|
| 35 | |
---|
[8698] | 36 | <p>You can set a album to private by editing a single album |
---|
| 37 | (<span class="pwgScreen">Administration » Albums » Manage |
---|
| 38 | » edit</span>) or by setting options to your whole album tree |
---|
| 39 | (<span class="pwgScreen">Administration » Albums » |
---|
[5182] | 40 | Properties » Public / Private</span>).</p> |
---|
| 41 | |
---|
[8698] | 42 | <p>Once the album is private, you can manage permissions for groups and |
---|
[5182] | 43 | users with 3 screens:</p> |
---|
| 44 | |
---|
| 45 | <ul> |
---|
| 46 | |
