limit album visibility

I have two albums, A an B. Is it possible to limit the visibility of these albums so that album A can be seen by all users but album B can only be seen by one particular user (and the Admin user of course)?

    This should answer all your questions: https://www.zenphoto.org/news/user-rights/ See especially the section "Rules of protection and visibility for objects" a little down the article.

    I must be missing something because that link doesn't help me. I read that page before I posted here.

    I can't see where it explains how to prevent a user from seeing an album that can be seen by another user. Presumably the trick is to have the albums protected by different passwords but as yet I've not been able to do that.

    Can anyone give step by step instructions? Or is providing that sort of support not the purpose of this forum?

    You cannot directly block any public album from other users. If it is public anyone can see it. You can only unpublish it then only users with rights to it or general superior rights will see (if they are loggedin). In combination with manage rights to the album as well. Or if anyone knows the link.

    Of course password protection is also a way unless the user has superor rights. You can set passwords to an album on its edit page.
