I have private albums with access granted by groups membership.
For some users it just don't work as it should for a reason I can't figure and with apparently incoherent behavior.

I check group membership for the concerned users, it's ok
Albums are listed in the "Albums authorized thanks to group associations" screen as they should.

And still, users don't have access to some of the albums in the list, nor by navigating in the public interface nor by direct access to the url (access not authorized message)

For others users in exactly the same groups and configuration, access is ok
For others private albums, access is ok, so I'm sure that users are well authiticate and recognize.

For the record, users and groups are synchronized and authentification is manage from a external source with a plugin of my own but I don't think this could be the cause as, like I said, I checked that my users are well registred in the Piwigo users and group configuration and authentification is correct.

does anyone have ever seen this kind of problem ?

thanks,
Pascal

Seems that, after few hours and without any change, things are getting to work by themselves.
At the end, maybe the problem is at this in between Piwigo and my plugin. But that don't explain why it don't work immediately after the user/group update, although the update and access authorization is visible into Piwigo user/group configuration. And why for some users only ?
