Is that right? I'm aware of PHP's implied insecurities but most of it is DUE to PHP programmers's skillsets. > Gallery has it's own user management / storage. Can you tell me how to put the photos storage location to somewhere other than the web-root? It's now in /var/www/html/gallery/albums. I tried to put it into /home/photos (defined in the config.php) but the images wouldn't show. (upload is OK) I even tried making a symlink from /var/www/html/gallery/albums to point to /home/photos, but it didn't work.
