Mass download

For non-commercial accounts (I have "power" if that's still the name), is there a way (or a customization) to provide for download of an entire gallery? I've customized to allow download of one image, that's fairly easy, but I did not see a way to allow the whole galley to download?

I see one can do it for themselves, but I'm talking about for others (not to purchase, just to download for free).

Note I also saw other postings asking for this, some labeled "completed", then others complaining it wasn't completed, but I could find nothing definitive (other than the absence of any obvious method).

Related question: If I build the ZIP file myself (and realizing it is a 2 week availability) can others download it if I share that link, or is there some authorization/cookie that might allow me and prevent them?

    At this time only account holders are able to download an entire gallery at once. As you mentioned visitors must do so one image at a time. What you could do is request the zip file yourself and then send this via email to others you wish to allow to download the images. They would be able to do so during the two weeks it remains available.

    I've been wishing for this functionality for years. Especially for those of us who use Smugmug as a photo sharing site.
