Unable to refer to Galleries by URL

Help! I don't know what I have done by I am unable to refer to my client galleries that I set up under legacy smugmug. I created the following folder structure under my account:

/clients/weddings
/clients/commercial
/clients/portraits
/clients/training

Now under new smugmug I can only refer to the top level /clients which displays only the Weddings gallery. If I try to refer to any of the sub folders I get a 404 error. For example:

http://andrewgransdenphotography.smugmug/clients - this works
http://andrewgransdenphotography.smugmug/clients/training - does not work

Can anyone suggest what I have done and how I can fix it?

Andrew

    Since SmugMug uppercases URLs, these should be:
    http://andrewgransdenphotography.smugmug.com/Clients/Weddings
    http://andrewgransdenphotography.smugmug.com/Clients/Commercial
    http://andrewgransdenphotography.smugmug.com/Clients/Portraits
    http://andrewgransdenphotography.smugmug.com/Clients/Training

    The top level displaying only the Weddings gallery sounds like your content blocks may be configured incorrectly. Try this:
    1. Go to Customize -> Customize Site -> All Folders. Make sure there's a Folders content block and a Galleries content block.
    2. For each content block, open its config options by hovering over it and clicking the little wrench icon.
    3. Ensure that the 'Select From' option is set to 'Current Location', and click 'Done'.
    4. At this point you can preview or publish your site to see the changes.

    Thanks for your pointers. Under Organize I can see full folder structure. However, under Customize Site the only folder visible is Weddings when you say there should be more than one. There is nothing under Galleries. I change the Galleries setting for Weddings from Folder to Current Location. Any other suggestions?

    If 'All Folders' does not have a Folders content block, you can add one by clicking on the 'Navigation' heading under 'Add Content Blocks' and drag a Folders content block above or below the Galleries content block (which is titled 'Weddings' in your case).

    Thank you dallasw for your help. I had to revert the folders back to the designer's template to regain control over the folders and subfolders. My attempts were not helped by the point you made in your first reply that the URLs are case sensitive on SmugMug. WHY? All other websites work regardless of the case. I had to clear Safari's history to make it ignore the lower case URLs I had typed in as it insisted on using the previous entry.
