Bug? Deleted gallery remains in sharegroup? Random gallery "My SmugMug Site Files"

frbfrb Registered Users Posts: 18 Big grins
I deleted a gallery yesterday (from my smugmug site), but for some reason it remained in the sharegroup, until I clicked on "Pick Galleries" for that sharegroup, when it was removed.

I can't replicate it now (by creating a gallery, adding it to a sharegroup, and deleting it again) - so must have been something random going on.

Strangely, now I'm seeing a gallery called
"My SmugMug Site Files (Do Not Delete)" which I did not create...

    I believe that gallery is part of the changes that were rolled out on the site last night. I have no idea what it's for, but it's an unlisted gallery so no one else will see it - I'd guess you should just ignore it.

    this sort of happened again.

    I had a gallery with only three photos. Added it to a share group. Deleted the gallery a few hours later (but had'nt deleted it from the sharegroup) and then when I went to my smugmug page I had an empty gallery just sitting there.

    If clicked on the title it took me straight to www.smugmug.com (as if it couldnt find the gallery) but when I clicked customise, i could still edit the settings there. I then deleted it from the sharegroup, and it disappeared.

    Seems like there is a bug somewhere that having a gallery in a sharegroup is blocking it being deleted?

    and again

    I created two galleries and added them to a sharegroup

    deleted both the galleries

    both galleries show up on my smugmug home page as empty galleries, however, if I click on them, I get redirected to www.smugmug.com

    Then go into sharegroup options. THe sharegroup I added them to shows "7 galleries"

    Click - "pick galleries" for that sharegroup

    and it goes down to 5 and the two galleries I deleted previously are removed from my homepage

    seems like, as i have said before, sharegroups are messing with the delete gallery code...

    might want to follow it up
