OK, I checked the FAQ and Forum thread searches but I must be doing something wrong. I am just trying to setup a simple website for my photos. I am a very plain person looking for a basic hierarchical design ... main page you click on the navi menu and drill down. If you look at my startup/home page I have a browse link in my menu ... if you click on this it will take you to 4 folders ... in each of these folders are different galleries ..but if you click on any folder you get a blank page ... no galleries or anything ... security is set to all public for now and if I go into organize under admin I see the galleries but when viewing as a user I get nothing. What is the best way to achieve basic viewing and navigation? I've designed sites before but something seems to be missing here in the way things are linked? Any help would be appreciated!

    On the blank page of any one of the folders you click.
    customize > customize site
    in the flyout on the right
    click to highlight "all folders"
    under content below
    click navigation to expand it
    drag a "galleries" and a "folders" box out to the page just under the breadcrumb.
    click the wrench on both, one at a time of course.
    for "select from" set it to "current location"
    save and then click "Done" upper right and "publish".

    Now every folder will show content.

    Great! I knew it had to be easy, what was throwing me off was that I was putting content into the galleries and linking the galleries in the folders and I assumed it would all just show up ... I guess I was just missing that one piece! Thanks so much!
