any unlisted galleries don't show up unless I am logged in. Anyone else having that problem?

how do I share the photos I don't want on my website with people?

    Unlisted galleries are NOT supposed to show up in a regular gallery listing unless you are logged in. That is their purpose. If you want them to show in your regular gallery listing, then make them public, not unlisted. If you don't want them to show up in the regular gallery listing, but still want to share them with individual people, then just email them a link to the unlisted gallery and they will be able to view it.

    They work like unlisted phone numbers. They're not in the directory, but if someone tells you what the number is, then you can use it. Same for the URL to an unlisted gallery.

    Are you sure the gallery is "unlisted" and not "private". Private is only available to the logged in site owner.

    Events should work just like sharegroups, unlisted galleries will show for your visitors.
