Just giving first steps with Gallery 2 (which is great) but I've already realized how useful would be to have an additional permission in the existing list:

[core] Delete sub-item

Any idea about how can I do this?
Thanks,

[core] Delete Item is the only delete permission.

The permission system in G2 is extremely complex and the more different permissions you set the slower G2 will get.

Nivekiam, thanks for your reply mainly because you've touched the point: permission system in G2 is extremely complex! My idea is: shouldn't we try to make it easier but with the functions we really need? Gallery is an excellent work but the permission system is not at the same level. Usually Windows applications have a very user friendly permissions setting. Gallery can have it too. I've spent a lot of time to understand and set permissions in my gallery. I believe it can be a lot improved by, for instance, giving users more practical options or by giving users the possibility to define groups with preset options out of a wider choice list.

That's one main reason why G3 is coming around. G2's development is done, no new improvements will be made with G2.

In G3, only group and albums can have permissions applied.
