I find this really strange.

I tagged a couple of my photos.

These photos are in a password protected folder.

I LOGGED OUT.

I searched for the tags.

They came up.

When I click on "see photos in gallery" - then a password prompt comes up. . .

You guys really need to spell out what is going on with the permissions and the new islands thing. I'm glad I tested this on a limited basis before tagging lots of my photos. . .


So someone not logged in as me can search and see my password protected photos that are tagged?

    No, you shouldnt see the photos that are in the password protected gallery. I've verified that password protected photos are not showing up in keyword galleries on my site. Try clearing your cookies.

    Before you change anything, what are the keywords? I'd like to search for them. You can PM me your site and the keywords.

    I did clear my cookies - with the same result.

    I keyworded a whole bunch of photos in passworded galleries and they
    showed in my main keyword listing only logged in. Shame those don't get
    amended to the KW list after entering password, would be great for family.mwink.gif

    Hi, I've looked tonight, and I'm checking on a few things. Back to you on Tuesday, okay? Thanks for your patience :D

    OK so go look for the keyword "choir" now on your site. Do it from a logged out browser (different browser than you used yesterday even better)...
