Hi! I would like to know which portion of the code could be modified to remove the automatic inheritance of the access_caches when we create a new group. Basically I don't want any newly created group to have access to anything until I say so. Any ideas or direction or file to start looking in? Thanks! |

Sorry to bump my own topic but I have a huge issue with the inheritance of groups.
I'll try to explain it once again as clearly as possible.
Gallery -> Album1 -> Album2
Normally, if I give access to Album2 to a certain group, that group must also be granted access to Gallery (main folder)…so far so good?
The issue which i find VERY annoying:
My setup is as follows:
Gallery -> Album1 -> Album4
-> Album2 -> Album5
-> Album3 -> Album6
If I want to grant access to Album5 I need to also grant access to the main folder Gallery….the problem is that by allowing that for a certain group, that group will automatically have access to Album1, Album2 and Album3! which was not intended!
I would LOVE to change the code myself and crate a module for everyone but I just can't seem to find where is the javascript part of the code that gives and denies permission!
Anyone could help me out please?
Thank you in advance!

I know its not a direct answer to your question, but I work around this by creating something like:
Gallery -> Album A (everyone gets access)
Under Album A:
->Album B
->Album C
->Album D
where B,C,D are restricted to each group. Then the contents under B,C,D get inherited from those.
I couldn't quite understand how to control access in code either so I used this as a workaround.
