Yes, I’m using Global Uploader. 🙂 Uploading works great, we just don’t want members to be able to see other entries until the entry period ends and the images go “live.” Make sense?

We don’t currently allow members to have Private galleries, so that’s why I haven’t set a Sitewide gallery to Private. I’d love it if I could set those permissions separately (Sitewide/Groups/Members) so I could allow admins to create the Sitewide Competition gallery and set it to Private until all entries have been received. But still be able to disable Private as an option for members’ own galleries. Is that possible? 

In addition, I found these two other related items. I can start a new thread if necessary:

I have the show_author parameter set and the link edited to go to their profile when clicked. This works great for our galleries for members. However, on any public galleries, can I disable this link? Non-members should just have the text and not a link.

Are there additional parameters I can include in addition to “show_author”? I’d like to be able to hide/show things like gallery titles and descriptions in the shortcode. 

LOVE the flexibility of your code. I’m running into little things that I’m trying to figure out, but overall it’s a very nice platform. 🙂 I appreciate the quick response. Thank you for your help!
