So far I have to say I like what I see in Piwigo, but I am a bit confused about one thing about security. Again I am using Piwigo 2.2.0RC4
1. I want to create a few virtual albums that can only be accessed after you successfully register as a user.
Unless I am missing something it appears the only way I can make this work is to create a group called "registered" or something and then manually move registered users into that group? I am hoping there is a way to automatically have a group called "users" which I guess is the name you get after you register and use that as the gatekeeper for access the Virtual Album.
My current gallery has 1800+ registered users that have been active for at least one year, and I fear the task of manually moving users into a specific group to gain access to some albums.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. The security is the one area that is still somewhat vague to me.

you can define a default user
All new user will have the permissions to this user

Or you can create a group and then go to add members and select "target: all" and associate them to that group, and then set permissions for group to access whatever private virtual galleries you have. That's a very easy way to do it.
ddtddt, I don't personally know how to do what you said but I'm interested if you can explain further.

1/ You create a new user and gives you the feature you want
2/ You identify id for this user (exemple 5)
to find edit profile
3) install/activate [extension by Piwigo Team] LocalFiles Editor from screen [Administration > Plugins > Manage]
4) open [Administration > Plugins > LocalFiles Editor > Local config] and paste the following code:
<?php
$conf['default_user_id'] = 5;
?>

Oh thank you very much, I was searching how to change from 'guest' to 'Anonymous'
and btw, as we are talking about that, how can I make for guest users not to input 'author' spot and all of them to appear as anonymous?

I want when unregistered users open an image and they want to add a comment, I don't want users to have option to put Author. That way when an unregistered user makes a comment his username I want it to be Anonymous. (see image attached)
