WP Photo Seller – Not authorised to view the details of this photo after search

[vatis]

In a password protected gallery, search for a keyword and select the image gives the error “You are not authorized to view the details of this photo!”.

Hi,

I will do some tests and look into the code to see if this is a bug.

Hi,

Thanks for reminding me – I will need to revisit this because it is tricky and I want to make sure I get it right.

The small issue with this scenario is that when a person performs a search, the current behaviour is that the plugin will display all matching results – even from the galleries which are password protected and which the user performing the search is not meant to know the password for.

Conversely there will be users who do a search who will know the password to the protected galleries so we have to somehow allow those users to view the results but keep out those who are not meant to see them.

So in summary I need to figure out a way to collect the password from the user. The problem is that the page they are trying to view (ie, the photo details page) is not the password protected page. The password protected page is the gallery page.

I have sent you an email.
