It's very important that there's (ACL) synchronization between Joomla and Gallery upon my site. I wish to deny Anonymous Guest access to my albums until they register. However, the ability for "LOOGEDIN" or Registered Users to access albums has been hampered because of the integration within Joomla. Gallery albums with access privileges set for Registered Users, denies all user access because of this integration. Gallery's album permission's aren't applicable when integrated using Joomla-Gallery Bridge. At least not through Joomla on my site integration. Album permissions must be set to "Everybody" for any of my registered users to view, and this is a problem.

What can I do to resolve this issues?

System Info[b]
Apache/1.3.37 (Unix)
Database Version: 4.1.21-standard
PHP Version: 4.4.4
Joomla! 1.0.11 Stable
GalleryBridge v1.5.2
Gallery v 1.5.5 p1
JACL Plus (Access Control Levels)

The permissions and users will not synced between Joomla and Gallery1.
You have the set all permissions within the in Joomla embedded Gallery. All permissions you have set in standalone Gallery1 before the integration in Joomla could not work.
Only the Joomla bridge for Gallery2 will do a complete user and permission synchronization

I can't allow anonymous guest access to my albums. Is it possible that something can be done to authenticate registered users access to albums using G1 Joomla Bridge? Even if it's custom coding that I request? Is it possible, and whom should I ask?

BACKGROUND: I've tried G2 and overall I like it, however it takes up too much real-estate (space); causing users to scroll upon viewing each photo. This gets annoying very quickly and I've a batch of images for viewers to see. My audience is temperamental. What I need is access level control between anonymous guest and registered users only. There's got to be a solution for G1 and Joomla Bridge.
