Hello folks,
I want to lock up my gallery with a site wide general purpose password. There is a terrific module for doing just that:
login as administrator, go to the album(s) in question, edit album, general tab, go to the bottom Password Protection and simply assign a password.
I did this, and it looked like it did it recursively, but now I'm finding that when I google my name, and old links come up to random galleries, one can still link directly to that page and see all the pictures - no password no nothing.
Did I do something incorrect? I'd like to make sure the gallery and all nested galleries get the password treatment.
Thanks so much!

If you've entered the password and then you find those links and click on them, you won't be prompted for a password again.
Test it by clearing your cookies and internet files, then click on one of those links and see what you get.

I tested it:
this link to the root/drew prompts for a password:
http://kerlee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=21334
but googling "drew kerlee gallery"
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=b5c&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&q=drew+kerlee+gallery&btnG=Search&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=
get's this link:
http://kerlee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=29322
where I can freely look at pictures. It is definitely inside the root/drew folder in the gallery - and not password protected.

Yep, it's not password protected. So it appears the change didn't get applied to all sub-albums. If you have lots of items, the process might have failed as well while applying to sub-items/albums because that's pretty intensive. You may need to hit each sub-album.

I noticed that the web browser did seem to freeze up apart way through the operation. What can I do to fix this? Do I need to increase the php memory limit? or time out time, or something like that?
Do you know of a way to apply this directly via a mysql query? That might be much faster, and yield the same results.

more memory? You can try
Time out? You can try
MySQL query, maybe, but I have no clue what or how.
I'd first try increasing the memory limit, if that still doesn't solve it, I'd try breaking it up and going into sub-albums and applying the change to the sub-albums and not to other sub-albums.

Found out there was a memory problem:
[Mon Apr 26 21:15:16 2010] [error] [client 70.36.234.32] PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted
I upped the memory to 128M from 32M and got ride of that problem only to find another one.
Any more thoughts? thanks!

Were talking about switching to "database locking", so I did at and it did he trick. Thanks!
