Hello All

I was reading this help page http://help.smugmug.com/customer/portal/articles/83125 about events and still have a few questions. I am shooting some pictures for my wife's employer next week, I am sure I will be asking questions about that later. What I was planning on doing since she works in a rather small office was the following:

1) Take pictures
2) Cull them
3) Upload to a gallery
4) Create the event
5) Give each of the stakeholders a participant login
6) Send them out to look at the pictures
7) Let them mark their favorites
8) Process and deliver their ten favorites.

So here are my questions:
a) is there a way to get a simple list that says five people picked this image?
b) is there a way for some one to unfavorite an image?
c) Is there a way to allow comments but not allow the participants to see the comments?

My goal is to basically let everyone vote on the images that they like and then process the ten highest rated.

Thanks for the help.

    Brad,

    Your workflow seems good to me!

    To answer your questions -

    a) There is not a way to see this on a single page, sorry! You can always check the person's favorites and see which match up.

    b) Yes, when your participants are selecting their favorites, they would be able to select and deselect them.

    c) You technically can do this, but it would require some CSS. Here is the general idea of the CSS that you would be needed:


    .gallery_XXXXXX .notLoggedIn #comments {display: none;}


    Add the above CSS for every gallery in the event and your guests would not be able to see the comments while you can check them out (while you are logged in, of course)
