My SmugMug Site Files (Do Not Delete)???

SpeedRazer

This gallery just appeared in my "Other" category:

My SmugMug Site Files (Do Not Delete)

with this caption:

"DO NOT DELETE. This gallery was created for you by SmugMug. Please do not delete it, it contains important site files. Don't worry, your admirers will never see it, unless you show it to them."

What in the hoohah is this and is it really necessary? I'm going to have to clear out the "Other" category so I don't have to see this mess. I feel kinda violated. :huh

If you use Easy Customizer and you specify some images in Easy Customizer, then it needs a place in your galleries to put those images, thus it creates this gallery to be that place. This new gallery is marked unlisted so nobody but you will see it or the category it's in.

If you don't want it, then don't use Easy Customizer. If you want to use Easy Customizer, then Smugmug needs a place to put the images you upload in Easy Customizer. Your choice. There's no violation going on here. Absolutely nothing your visitors see has changed. It's no different than your email program creating a "Sent Mail" folder for you because it needs a place to put sent mail.

Thx John. I opened the Easy Customizer just to look at it but never actually configured anything. I guess opening it alone created the dummy gallery but it almost felt like a virus since I had no warning and didn't know what to make of it...
