Galley name in URL

komy

Hi,

Is there a way to access a gallery by its name in the URL? ie: I can access a gallery category by http://mysite.smugmug.com/Category1

Can I do the same on a gallery? http://mysite.smugmug.com/Category1/Gallery1

I feel it is easlier for sharing gallery with friends... it's always easlier to remember a URL with names compare to random numbers.

Thanks,
Kevin

Sure, if you are power or pro, use Vanity URL hack:

See http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=20011 for steps to implement vanity URLs that do exactly what you are asking for. You will need customization ability as power or pro in order to add the Javascript that makes this work.

Thanks for the help!

BTW, I've created a new hack that supports the gallery name in URL feature that I am looking for. Details is here: http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=59237
