I have added the comment box to the SITE WIDE customization page. However, I would like to keep it off certain galleries; is there a code for this?

Thanx,

    Are not comments directed to each gallery? Each gallery has a comment on/off toggle in settings.

    Allen, I meant "Folder" (duh). Sorry about that. Is there a code to keep the Comment box off a FOLDER? If not, I will just make a very deep margin on whatever is above the Comment box. Thanks!

    (By the way, I love how the comments from the Legacy (old) version are populating in the new Smug. Also, Now that I am getting really, really good at working on the new Smug mwink.gifwink, I love it!)

    Unless you manually add a comment box to a folder page and point it to a gallery I don't see how comments
    are relative on folder pages. Can you explain a bit more? Got a link?

    Yes, I know the comment box can be added gallery by gallery but that can be awfully time-consuming given all the galleries I have. So, on the SITE-wide customization page/gallery, I added the comment box to the bottom (so it would show on every gallery). Well, it is also showing on the folders. Would rather it not show on some or all of the folders...whatever I decide. Here is the link to just one small segment of my site...note the comment box at the bottom of the folder: http://oursite.smugmug.com/All-Folders/RichardsPixels/

    Thanks,

    Before you drag the comment box over to the page make sure "all galleries" is highlighted not "entire-site" or "all folders".

    Hi DeeRich,
    I didn't want to edit your site without your permission but I did look into your issue. You have placed your Comments Content Block on your "Entire Site" which is why it's showing up everywhere. On the top right side of the Customizer you will see a bar that says "Entire Site", "Homepage", etc. Click on "Entire Site." At the bottom of your page you'll see your Comments Content Block. Click the trash can to delete it. Now back on the right side click on "All Galleries". Drag a comments Content Block to the bottom to add it in for galleries only.

    Let me know if you still have any issues.
