Hello
What you did is the only way I found to achieve this. All my contributors are webmasters. I resigned from managing this site, because I found it too risky.

Hello


Right now I have made all registered users as webmaster.

That is giving all users full and administrative access to everything on your Piwigo site. I would seriously reconsider that move. WebMaster is the default Admin user in Piwigo terms.

I would instead grant the "Administrator" access, since that role is, again as Piwigo implemented roles, not full access to everything.

Again, Administrator role is actually giving less access, but still perhaps enough.

Thanks for the reply.

I would have required that a user group can have access to upload/edit/delete their own contents as well are allowed to tag/comment on other collections. Thats only is my requirement but which does not get satisfied with default user group category.

You can achieve this with the following plugins:


Uploading Photos:

Community - This plugin allows the site administer to assign permission to a particular group (e.g., User) to upload photos into a particular album and subalbums. This plugin also includes a feature called "User albums" where "Piwigo automatically creates an album for each user, on first connection".


Editing/Deleting Photos:

Admin Tools - This plugin enables members who are assigned a particular group (e.g., 'User') can delete and edit (i.e., edit photo name, author, creation date, keywords, and description) photos.

user delete photo - This plugin allows members to delete photos by clicking on Discover - Edit Photos


Tagging:

User Tags - This plugin allows users to add tags to a photo from the information dialog box.


Comments:

No plugin required. Site administrator enables commenting from the site administration page (i.e., Configuration --> Options --> Comments --> Activate comments



Note:
Although Piwigo can be configured for members to create an album, this platform does not currently allow members to edit the name and description of an album. Once an album is created, a site administrator is needed to edit an album.

Cheers! Hope the info above is helpful.
