Categories not display associated galleries

dereksurfs

Hello,

I just signed up recently for SmugMug and I am now trying to create Categories to orgainze my galleries.

So far I cannot view any galleries that I place in these categories. Here is my site: http://landandseaphoto.smugmug.com/

I have selected the desired category under Customize Gallery. And a thumbnail from that gallery shows up under the category (eg - Fall). But when I click on the category thumbnail the contents are empty.

I would appreciate help figuring out how to properly categorize my galleries.

Thanks you,

- Derek

You might have the galleries set to private. Private galleries do not show
on any browse type page like your galleries page or category pages.

They should show logged in though. Only a direct link to a gallery
work work logged out.

This direct link to a gallery works which is in your Favorites category.

Al,

Both galleries that I want to display are set to Public access. Also I cannot view either even when logged in.

And when I change display from 'category' to 'galleries' the galleries display fine whether I'm logged in or not.

So maybe their is some kind of category bug right now. Or maybe there is something set wrong in my CSS. But the only thing I turn off in CSS is the display name:
#categoriesBox .boxTop {
display: none;
}

Is there some other setting I need to check to make categories work properly?

Thanks,

- Derek

Your customization is causing the problem. If I remove all your customization code, the galleries show fine. I didn't track down all the details, but if you remove the code that is hiding the galleriesBox, you will start to see things. You may also need to stop hiding the categoriesBox. If you did this in order to change your home page, then you may need to limit those changes to just apply to the home page. In any rate, you can restore your galleries by fixing your customization.

John,

You are absolutely right about the GalleriesBox! I had tunred off too much there. In an effort to get rid of extra text I guess I hid the whole thing.

Here was the problem code in comments and the new code that works:

/*
#galleriesBox {
display: none;
}
*/

#galleriesBox .boxTop { 
display: none; 
}

It works great now.
Thank you very much!!!
