I need some assistance with my site: wgillettphotography.com
I have 2 pages at the top 10am and 12pm. I need to drag my 10am and 12 pm galleries onto that page. How do you drag galleries onto a page? It seems like it just lets you drag single photos or 48 photos from a gallery at a time.
Thanks for help!

    You'll just need to drag a galleries content block onto the page where you would like it. In my experience it's best to drag it directly below or above the content block you are wanting it next to.

    need more help
    so i do not like how the new settings make you put all the pics in 1 gallery on the same page. is there a way you can do it like before where under my "10am" heading I could have links to my 4 galleries? just seems like too many pics on one page. there should be a way to just put the albums on the initial page and then a click on the link would bring you to all the pics in that album right?

    Have you tried using folders?

    > create a folder called "10am"
    > place the 4 galleries in that folder
    > present the folder(s) on a page.

    See help page at http://help.smugmug.com/customer/portal/articles/1213252-what-s-new-hierarchy-and-folders.

    Go to organizer.
    Create a folder, can be at any level or the top level.

    Go to new folder
    go into customize
    make this folder custom so "just this folder" shows in flyout and highlight it

    drag a galleries box to page, name it "10am"
    Set "select from" to folder
    Set "Folder" to the 10am folder so those galleries will show.

    drag another galleries box to the page
    name it 12am
    repeat above for 12pm folder.

    I've done just this selecting two sub-folder with galleries here

    Add as many galleries boxes as you want for more times.

    If you want to show photos from multiple folders add multiple "multiple photo" blocks instead of folder boxes.
    Add "multiple photo" boxes and point each to a folder like 10am and 12pm.
    "select from" > single gallery > choose a gallery
