    Hi, has anyone ever tried to google this? /wp-content/uploads/album
    The result will be the possibility to access to the album of the sites which used this plugin.
    I’m using this wonderful plugin for my site but I need to avoid this problem. I need that people of my commnity who create albums will be able to keep them private.
    Is there a way to fix this problem, maybe changing upload folder permission or anything else?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    You answered your own question :)
    changing file permission on that folder to 751 will fix that problem for you.

    Thanks,
    I asked to be sure but I hope it can help someone else who has not noticed that.

    In that case (helping others) You could also insert a blank index.html page into the folders and that will also stop people from peeking.

    Yes, or a index with a redirect to the home page. Great idea!
    Thanks
