Hello All... I switched over to smug mug after my web provider webshots went away. I am by no means savvy when it comes to 'creating' pages.
I just want my page simple so my family can access all my photos. Like the legacy smugmug layout. (I shouldn't have switched over)
Can someone give me steps in laymans terms on how to show all of my galleries/aka albums on my home page? I have several albums on the home page but there are also the folders "other" and "vacation" listed where the albums are within the folder where you must click in deeper to get to the albums/galleries. I want all the albums up front.
I am not a professional photgrapher and I'm afraid smug mug looks to be focused towards them. Very confusing on how to change things.
Any help would be appreciated.

I used to have my legacy smugmug the same way -- just a big list of all my galleries (albums) that someone could scroll through and find quite easily. Unfortunately SmugMug got rid of this feature in the New SmugMug. I exchanged a number of emails with them and still can't fathom why they would completely get rid of a feature that was so prominent in their old system (you could display only by folder or a full list of galleries).
I had to settle for organizing things into folders first, which are displayed on the home page, and then having the galleries displayed in there

Ok... How do i change the name of the folder a gallery is in? instead of "other" I want it in "vacation" or otherwise. How do I change the name of an album period?
Also.. There ARE albums that are on my home page. These albums WERE NOT initiated to be in "other" or "Vacation" or "people".... So they are flat out.. on my home page as an album. right there.

My galleries/albums are under 'folders'... ie "vacation", "other" etc.
How can I get rid of the folder a gallery is under? How can I remove the folder level for a gallery..
See the screen print below of my home page.
I have 3 "FOLDERS" labeled:
OTHER
ST. JOHN
CAT'S PROM
I ALSO HAVE individual albums/galleries listed
Van- High School
2009 Bruice Austin
2014 MOM & DAD
How do I get rid of the "folder" info ("OTHER", "ST. JOHN", "CAT'S PROM") so that all of those galleries under these folders show up like the other 3 galleries (THAT ARE NOT UNDER A 'FOLDER')? ("Van-High School", "2009 Bruce Austin". "2014 MOM & DAD")

How did you try to move it?

If you want them to be the "top level" you need to drag it onto the "crazy4bruce" text ... which is your "top level folder". That should work

I tried to drag the gallery "Van-High School" up to "crazy4bruce". It does not take. It says rag to a highlighted area only... and the only areas it lets me put it in are the folders "other" "vacation" or "st. john". UGH!
