I know it can be done as I have seen it in other galleries. Here is what I want to do but can't seem to get it done. I want to have a main category to click then inside the main category I want to have several related to the main category that were taken on different dates like this.

air shows then have inside airshows I want to have Seafair 2005 and McChord Air expo 2005.
Everytine I try it they end up where I don't want them

Thanks
Jim Clark

    Hi Jim,

    Have you assiged each gallery you want to be in the category "Air Shows?" If you've not set up a category for "Air Shows" you can do that via Control Panel >Categories.

    In each gallery's customize gallery menu, there's a place to assign that gallery to a category.

    Here are the relavent help pages:

    I hope I've understood your question. If not, holler again and I'll be right back to you!

    All the best,
    Andy

    What's your site name, please?
