Password Questions

Zanotti

I have small kids and have had problems with open viewing of my Smugmug account. Its a little disconserting when a total stranger requests a pic of your 9 year old daughter in a swimsuit.

So, as a precaution, I have password protected the entire account and give the password to family who likes to share the photos.

A couple of questions:

If I like a photo and want to link it to DGrin, will it link this photo only, or will the viewers need the password to see it?

I would like to password protect entire galleries, not just individual ones within. For example, password protect all "Children", not just Soccer or Birthday within. Is there a way to protect major headings, not just individual?

Thanks, love the service!

Hi Zanotti

If you provide a direct link on dgrin to a photo of your passworded site, it should show, a password is not needed.

Do you mean to password an entire category at once, vs a gallery? I'm afraid this is not possible, each gallery will have to be assigned a password. You can however assign them all the same password. People will not have to type in that password each time they change a gallery.

I hope this helps.
