domain options and customization samples

iammk

Hi All,

I wasn't quite sure which section this should go in so I thought I'd try here first. I am not a pro member yet but have (at least) two questions before I become one.

Is it possible to place your smugmug galleries in a subdomain or folder? For example, www.mydomain.com/mysmugmuggalleries/ or does it have to be at the base?

Is there any central location that's good to check out customized sites besides the few examples listed in the beginning info?

Thanks!

Andy

Hi,

You can make

http://photos.yourdomain.com and have that be a CNAME to your SmugMug site.

http://www.smugmug.com/help/professional-accounts
has more info.

A whole bunch of cool sites here:

I have just set up my domain with Yahoo to point to SmugMug. How do you make such that user only sees www.xxxxxxx.com/gallery/123456 and not see xxxx.smugmug.com (where xxxx = my domain). Similar to Andy's site for www.moonriverphotography.com. You never see moonriverphotography.smugmug.com in the URL when you traverse through the site.

My site name is www.cyberphotogs.com.

Thanks and I look forward to your reply.

You need to change the links in your nav for
http://www.cyberphotogs.smugmug.com
by switching to the relative links.

change this
<div id="navbar">
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.cyberphotogs.smugmug.com" title="Back To Home">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.cyberphotogs.smugmug.com/Public" title="Public">Public Galleries</a></li>
<li><a href="/Personal" title="Personal">Personal Galleries</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.cyberphotogs.smugmug.com/mapgallery">Map</a></li>
<li><a href="/gallery/2163446" title="Please Sign My Guestbook!">Guestbook</a></li>
<li><a href="/gallery/2178243" title="About The Cyberphotog">About</a></li>
</ul>
</div>

to this
<div id="navbar">
<ul>
<li><a href="/" title="Back To Home">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="/Public" title="Public">Public Galleries</a></li>
<li><a href="/Personal" title="Personal">Personal Galleries</a></li>
<li><a href="/mapgallery">Map</a></li>
<li><a href="/gallery/2163446" title="Please Sign My Guestbook!">Guestbook</a></li>
<li><a href="/gallery/2178243" title="About The Cyberphotog">About</a></li>
</ul>
</div>

Hey Bruce,

It looks like you've set up your domain correct. The only problem still existing appear to be the links you've set in your navbar. You'll have to edit them to accompany your domain as well. Go to your customizations and have a look at the header section. There you should be able to see your navbar links. Replace the cyberphotogs.smugmug.com addresses in your navbar by cyberphotogs.com

I hope this helps,
Sebastian
