All,
This might be a bit confusing but here is what I am trying to do. Please let me know if its possible or if there is a better way. Thanks.

I have a number of old folders on my homepage that are unlisted.
I created a new page for these old folders where I want to have them public.
If I move them to a new folder and remove them from the homepage, the url changes.

Is there a way to keep them where they are (same url), continue to have them unlisted on the homepage but visible on the new page?

Hope this makes sense to someone!
Thanks for the help.
Jim

    You could go to the folder where you would like these galleries added and in a gallery content block then select "Ones I Choose" and add in the galleries you would like displayed there so the linking does not change. thumb.gif

    Kevin, thanks for the advice. I still have a question/concern. These are unlisted galleries. When I add them to the gallery content block on the new page will they still be unlisted?

    I believe they would still technically be unlisted in that they will not show on the folder page that contains the galleries - but you are essentially making them easily available on your site by explicitly referencing the unlisted galleries on a page. If you don't want that to happen then you probably don't want to place them on a page.

    But - the answer that you were given is exactly what you asked for - the galleries would not show on your homepage but they would be visible on the page where you included them.
