The directions on making galleries and sub-galleries are a bit confusing to me.

This is what I am wanting to do but am not sure how to go about it.

Example...

Family Gallery
Daugher (I suppose this would be a sub-catagory)
Grandson (this sub-catagory would be inside the Daughter gallery)
Granddaughter (another sub-catagory inside Daughter gallery)

Can this be done or is it not possible to make a sub-catagory within a sub-catagory if that is what I am actually trying to do?

Please give simple and easyyyyyyyy instructions...I am brain dead when it comes to this kind of thing.

Thank you so very much for your help.

You only have 3 levels:
>>> category >>> subcategory >>> gallery

You can have mulitple subcategories within a category, and multiple galleries within either a category or a subcategory.

So you could have a family category.
Within that you could have a subcategory for your Daughter, another subcategory for your grandson, etc. But all within Family.

I believe SmugMug is working on a deeper structure for a future release, but for now you'll need to work within the current structure.

Thanks Denise...I kinda thought that was the case. I will be happy when SM makes a better structure. It is surprising that this hasn't been done before now. Oh well, its a hellva site anyway.
