How disable comments for users selectively
Hi,
in my Piwigo system I have 2 types of user with associated Groups:
groupA: users with Status=User, Privacy level=Friends
groupB: users with Status=Generic, Privacy level=Contacts
Managing access rights regarding galleries and photos for both groups is easy and works as expected.
The only functionality not yet achieved is, that groupA users should be allowed to post comments while groupsB users should not be allowed to post comments.
Under Piwigo configuration [Comments] option 'Activate comments' is checked and option 'Comments for all' is unchecked. I didn't find anything more for influencing comments.
I would be glad receiving any idea to achieve selective rights for commenting.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
There is a plugin called "Comments Access Manager" that enables you to "Select the group of users allowed to post comments:"
Create a user Group for comment edit in Administration/Users/Groups/Add group.
Add users for Comment edit to this group via Administration/Users/Manage. Edit a user name and under Properties/Groups select the group that enables Comment edit
Install and activate the Comments Access Manager plugin.
Select and save the Comment edit Group name in Administration/Plugins/Comments Access Manager and click Settings.

John
