No matter what I do the quick settings will not actually change anything when I apply them to galleries. I have tried multiple times and it never works. I pick it when I upload new galleries nothing gets applied. I go into a gallery, pick the setting , click apply to other galleries, select the galleries and nothing happens.

It is driving my crazy and I don't know which ones I have already corrected. What am I doing wrong?

    I just set up my account last night - 50 galleries imported from flickr. I ran into this same problem and ended up doing the settings on every gallery manually. Seems like it's just a simple thing that should just work; only that it didn't. :-(

    Is anyone able to assist. Not only are the quick settings not working but I changed a lot of galleries to square thumbnails 3 or 4 days ago and although it says they are square in the settings. They are not showing up as square. Makes me concerned what other settings are not working. Is there something going on causing things not work properly?

    Please respond.

    If you're trying to use Quick Settings to change the thumbnails to original *after uploading*, it doesn't work. This bug has been around for a while:

    The stupid annoying workaround after changing the Quick Setting (which doesn't work) is to go to each gallery and go to "Adjust Thumbnails" to make the change:

    http://www.smugmug.com/help/photo-tools-menu

    The option is under Many Photos (More), and the documentation is *WRONG*:
    Adjust Thumbnails

    Click to select photos then choose to make their thumbnails Square or to revert back to their Original thumbnails.

    You can change the entire gallery's thumbnails at once in your Customize Gallery settings.
    (That last sentence is false.)
