I always thought that it work, but you are right it doesn't.
It will remove the Upload button from the main cat page and leave it for the sub cat page, but the drop down cat list in the upload form page doesn't show either the main or subs.

I'm not sure what it would take to get what you are asking. I will take a look when I get a chance, but dunno that I'll be successful.

Re: Post Images In Sub-category Only

I was not able to find a solution by using the setting of permissions in the ACP..... as one would prefer.
But I do know a way (hardcoded) that you can prevent the upload button from displaying in ALL main categories. (Notice I said ALL main categories)
Of course the main cat will still be listed in the category drop down list of the sub-cat's upload page ....though it would not be a valid cat for uploading.

If interested, let me know.

Re: Post Images In Sub-category Only

This code will remove the Upload button from all main categories .... Public and Personal

OPEN album_cat.php

FIND

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

$upload_full_link = '<a href="' . $upload_link . '"><img src="' . $upload_img .'" alt="' . $lang['Upload_Pic'] . '" title="' . $lang['Upload_Pic'] . '" style="border:0px;vertical-align:middle;" /></a>';

AFTER ADD

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

$upload_full_link = ($thiscat['cat_parent']== 0) ? '' : $upload_full_link;

And this code will give an error message if user attempts an upload to a main category from the upload page drop down list.

OPEN album_upload.php

FIND

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

if (empty($thiscat))

{

    message_die(GENERAL_ERROR, $lang['Category_not_exist']);

}

AFTER ADD

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

if ($thiscat['cat_parent'] == 0)

{

    message_die(GENERAL_ERROR, 'Uploads not allowed in the main category<br />Please select a sub-category and try again');

}

}
