  • 0

I am building a website using php and mysql.I have a login that is ONLY for an administrator and nothing more.Administrator can create image albums and upload images into them.Every other user does not need to login to the website.
My problem is that i can’t display the images to the users without being logged in to the website.Administrator can see the images when he is logged in to the website.Are there any ideas what am i doing wrong?Any kind of solution is acceptable..

Here is the code which includes the above:

albums.php

    Why is it that the images only show up when the administrator is logged in? Do you force the user to a login page when they aren’t logged in? If that’s the case then you should only force/redirect them when they try to access pages where they are able to upload/edit images. If you haven’t already you should create pages that simply show the images to the user and don’t take into account whether the user is logged in our not.
