Issue with 'hidden owner' galleries - 06-01-2009, 10:05 AM


When I click on a gallery that I have set to hide the owner, my name is still showing up on the link in the browser. For me to share the link I have to copy it, then replace my name with www for it to link to the correct photos. It isn't a huge deal, but it is kind of annoying. In the past it just showed up as www.smugmug.com instead of myname.smugmug.com.

If I am lazy and just sending the link to friends, it will always take them to the first photo in the gallery unless I replace the myname with www.

Hopefully that makes some sense, but it is Monday, so I won't be surprised if it doesn't.

If you have "Hide Owner" on, your name should not be in the URL. Can you post the Gallery here?

This is one of my owner-hidden galleries because I post some of the pics.

When I am logged in it shows up with my name still in the link, so I have to manually edit the link, while in the past my name did not show up even when I was logged in. myname.smugmug.com/etc

If someone else visits my site, or if I log out and go to that gallery, the link is fine. www.smugmug.com/etc

Like I said, not a big deal, but if I am logged in and were to cut and paste the link it shows my full site in the link.
