My first post ever so please be nice. I am trying (unsuccessfully so far) to get the Galleries tab on my menu bar to work. I have several galleries and not sure how to get them all to appear on the Galleries page when I click menu. Do I have to reference each gallery? (I hope not). I have my own domain [www.CostelloImages.com] and find the menu bar tutorial a little confusing for me. I hope this question makes sense. Thanks!

    You are almost there. You just need to add your galleries back to your homepage. The galleries page is just a second copy of your homepage so when you hide your galleries from your homepage, they can't show on the galleries page either. Go to the homepage layout button and pick Galleries to bring them back. Your CSS will hide them from the page with your slideshow and they will then show on your galleries page.

    Thanks! Took about 15 seconds to do. Now all I need to figure out is how to link to my information page. As you can see when you check it on the menu bar my 'internal' smug mug page comes up - not just the info i started to input. If you can help great, if not I'll post in a new question.

    Best, Tom

    I don't understand. You "Information" link goes to this gallery. Do you want that link to go somewhere else or do you want to format the gallery to hide everything except the text that you've entered on that page?

    Thanks for your patience. I thought it might be nice to have a page with information aobut me, my camera equipment/philosophy...useless stuff like that. So, ideally I would like just a page with text.

    And I really like your photos. The US west offers some beautiful places to photograph.

    Best,

    Tom

    Try adding this CSS:

    .gallery_6931817 #breadcrumb,
    .gallery_6931817 #photos,
    .gallery_6931817 .albumNav,
    .gallery_6931817 #comment {display:none !important;}

    .gallery_6931817 #albumDescription {width:700px; margin: 0 auto;}

    This will hide everything but your text in the Information gallery. You can then put real HTML in the albumDescription to format it however you like. Just prefix the albumDescription text with <html> to tell Smugmug that you are doing your own HTML formatting.
