Lightbox cannot access a secured directory #5827

Closed tdrees1967 closed 11 years ago

tdrees1967 commented 11 years ago

Hi, I have created an image gallery for specific users that is only available after login. The pictures for that gallery are taken out of the users directory. If the directory is secured, the images are seen within the page, but once I try to open the lightbox for a single picture, it cannot show the image, because the lightbox cannot access the secured directory, whereas the gallery is able to access that directory. Regards, Torsten

The gallery is not able to access the secured folder, it only creates thumbnail images in the public assets directory. You cannot accomplish what you want with Contao out of the box (which however is not a Contao defect).

Since both modules are belonging to the default modules in contao, is it possible to implement this feature in a later version? I saw several people asking for such a feature in different forums. Regards, Torsten
