Allow to see non public pictures

    Hi,

    Most of my piwigo pictures are not public…
    I saw that piwigopress allow only to access public pictures in post or widget.

    It will be a great step if piwigopress was able to know the piwigo rights of the connected users to allow to display available authorized pictures.

    Automatically if it can associate the actual user with the piwigo user rights
    or
    thru a link between wordpress userid and piwigo userid
    (perhaps this could be possible with the use of the wordpress users_meta table and a piwigoid field …)

    I don’t know if it could be possible …

    Good question, maybe a long-term project. But sorry, for now I will not be able to tackle it.

    It would be technically possible.
    1 – Web service to loggin.
    2 – Web service to get pictures.

    But by doing this, any private picture for Piwigo is going to become public. Any direct link to the picture or via the Piwigo url will fail.
    I know it is exactly what condorman17 would like to have but it is not inline with web url principles.

    Another issue is: A picture visible on a private category might be protected and not visible from another web domain (e.g. a wordpress page with a different http address). This is due to .htaccess rules.
    See $conf[‘original_url_protection’] parameter within Piwigo forum or documentation.

    Really complex to deal with for a specific request…
