Hi I have a folder that I want to share
with 5 folders, each one shareable. I am able to get a link for each of these galleris but it seems to be a problem with sharing the folder directly. My problem seems to be on how to get the right link of the folder and not each gallery directly.

I would like to thank you in advance for your reply

Regards

alex

    Looking at the folder, copy the browser url and send that.

    It looks empty... the folders in the folder are unlisted

    If the folders and galleries are unlisted, you will need to share each gallery individually using the SHARE < GET A LINK option. The galley key is required to be in the URL for unlisted galleries to be viewable to logged out viewers. There is not a way to obtain a unlisted folder link and share.

    If you need anything else, please email us by going to help.smugmug.com and clicking the "Email Us" link.

    Why these things are not clear in smugmug interface. I have been left weeks now guessing asking for help
    that
    -custom urls if they have greek characters, sharing to facebook doesnot work well
    -collect makes a virtual copy and not a real one
    -collecting over password protected does not work well on facebook
    -sharing unlisted folder is not possible
    -I can not collect through a private gallery to an unlisted.

    well some of these might be easy for some to find out, but why in this lovely world I never get a warning from smugmug interface? Smugmug support, I have an 8 month daughter old, I travel every day to get at work 160 kilometers, my wife 80. We are raising our child in a place completely alone. I only have 30 minutes per week to share photos and I DO NOT WANT SPENDING TIME understand what smugmug is NOT able to do.

    At least a simple warning message would be enough to prevent me losing so much time.
    Please forward this link to any "supervisor" that really wants to improve smugmug experience

    P.S Gosh and this is not a free service
