Bulk Settings not working??

caroline

I made changes in Bulk Settings, such as setting the largest image size, right click protection but it does not appear to have been applied to all galleries, for example http://www.carolineshipsey.co.uk/Eve...-Toms-Wedding-

Are there bugs in this or have I done something incorrectly?

You can only select one folder of galleries at a time to apply Bulk Settings to, were you aware of that?

You have Originals enabled in that gallery. Even with right click protection viewers can grab the images (since they are available in the browser cache); you should probably choose a size other than Original as the display site.

You can only apply bulk settings to multiple galleries in a single folder (see Lamah's note above). Was it applied to the Events folder? (I can't tell by looking at the other galleries because I don't know how the galleries were set initially.) Is this the only gallery that shows the problem?

HI Denise and Lamah, apologies for the delay in acknowledging your help.
I misread the instructions in SmugMug Help and thought somehow I had applied the settings to the whole site.
I'm not doing much with my site at the moment and tend to forget how to do things! What I really want is to make sure the same settings are applied across the whole site as it stands, except the wedding photos gallery, and that this happens when I create a new gallery too. Is this possible?

Many thanks
Caroline

Hi Caroline -

To apply settings to all galleries (except weddings) you need to use Bulk Gallery settings - you will need to apply it once for each folder that you have. Select a folder in organizer. Multi-select all galleries in that folder, then apply the bulk settings.

The only way to "automatically" apply this to new galleries I would recommend using a quick setting. Set one up for weddings and one for all other galleries and apply the quick setting when you create the gallery. Be careful when naming it - there is a reported problem where the drop-down only shows a very short piece of the quick setting name.

Hi Denise,
Thanks, I've got it now, my site needs some tidying up and TLC, and not least consistency.
I've posted a new thread about creating a keyword page, I've searched on here and in the help but am probably not asking the question correctly:(
