Ok - I am new to smugmug customization. I have successfully created a header, navbar and embedded a slideshow. BUT. . I can't figure out why my "client galleries" page is identical to my homepage. Whatever changes I make to my homepage, it makes the exact changes to my client galleries.

I need my client galleries page to show the galleries for my clients to login and view their pictures. On my homepage, I just want my slideshow running.

Also, I have tried to add the code for the border around my slideshow and it never works.

Can anybody PLEASE help me?!?!?! I am going crazy at this point!:dunno

Thanks in advance for any help somebody could lend me!

The tutorial currently has an error in it. You need to add the plus signs to your javascript as I explain in this post (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?p=977302#post977302).

Thank you for this; however, I am still having a problem. The galleries are showing up below the slideshow as well as the galleries page. If I choose under hompage layout to remove the check mark by default, they disappear completely.

I am sure I have lost my mind at this point. ARGH!:scratch

Any more suggestions?

You are missing one line from your CSS:

Change:

.homepage #categoriesBox,
.homepage #featuredBox {
display: none;
}


to this:

.homepage #categoriesBox,
.homepage #featuredBox,
.homepage #galleriesBox {
display: none;
}

CSS is actually not that hard to learn. I just read a book, then started trying to figure things out - just doing a Google search whenever I'm stumped. There is tons of stuff online about CSS. It makes a big difference to get the right tools to help you too. I use Firebug and Web Developer, both add-ins for Firefox to let me see what's going on with CSS and to try things out on existing web pages.
