I'm an amateur at this, so I thought I'd tap your collective infinite wisdom.
What I'm trying to do is have select photo's show up on a page/block/module/whatever, depending on the XOOPS group permissions.
I've used image manager and set up 4 categories of photos (i.e. 1,2,3 & 4).

I would like the photo's to be displayed per the user group permissions that exist in xoops.
So, in other words, an Anonymous user sees all photo's in Category 1.
A Registered user see's all photo's in Category 1 & 2.
A 3rd User Group could see all photo's in Category 1,2 & 3.

I see the tables in phpmyadmin, but I can't figure out the relationship of the user table and the groups table. I think the key has to be in the groups_users_link table, but thus far it has eluded me. Perhaps _group_permission table is involved too?

I guess what I'm looking for is an "if" statement that says...
if uname belongs to groupid 1
then run the sql statement and spit out Category 1 photos.

Am I trying to recreate the wheel here? Is anyone aware of a photo module that can do this?

Many thanks in advance for your input.

I'm using xoopsgallery module and you can set up all permissions that you're looking for.

I'm not so sure if it's what you're looking for but you could check out this thread click here

Excellent!!!
Thanks so much for the quick responses.
!

I'll definitely check out the xoopsgallery module Rassim.
Thanks very much.

And thanks for that thread link snow77. I can almost understand it. LOL I'll save that code snippet for future use for sure!

Oh, and just to let you know.
I found that the imagemanager.php file does everything I need (and much more) within it's "list" function. So I'm in the middle of doing some copy & pasting and reformatting (into a new file) for display purposes.

Thanks again!!
