I had been re-organizing my legacy site for a while preparing for a total revamp. As part of this I had created several new sub-categories and galleries which were all unlisted (as I didn't want the public to see them).

I did the migration and used them for my current site- with one slight problem. They are unlisted and I cannot figure out how to list them.

In both Folder and Gallery privacy settings my only options are:
Inheriting (unlisted)
Unlisted
Private

How do I turn on these folders and galleries so they are visible?

    Go to the organizer and select the galley and you can set it there.

    Nope. Same issues in organizer. Doesn't give an option to move unlisted to listed. :cry

    If I understand correctly, it sounds like a parent folder issue. If you have a parent, top level folder of 'Weddings' and then have sub-folders and galleries below that, if you set Weddings, the top, to be unlisted, everything below it will be unlisted. You can't have a lower level of security for the child folders than you do the parent folders. Security is inherited, that's why inherited is also unlisted. Change the top folder to public, the others will become public.

    Okay so here is what I am trying to set my site up as


    Home Page

    One Category In
    i-Q7tBTbj-L.png

    Here is what is public
    i-FJ3fNMM-L.png

    As mentioned above. In gallery settings for security and privacy there are only 3 options:
    Inheriting (unlisted)
    Unlisted
    Private

    How do I make these categories/ folders/ galleries viewable??

    Yes I understand that but the security options are the same for the folder. There is no option to make viewable or public.

    I am also experiencing this problem. I am trying to set up a new folder and the the "public" option doesn't show up in the choices.

    Is the folder or any of its parent folders unlisted?
