While working on my website, how can I navigate to different catagory and gallery pages, while still logged in as the owner. When I click on the link thorugh my nav bar, it takes me to the right catagory and/or gallery, but as a visitor rather than an owner. Then, while on that page, it isn't letting me log in to view it as an owner. The only way I have figured out to get where I want to go from my homepage and remain logged in as the owner is to click on the add photos button, then click on the gallery rather than add any, but I know there has to be an easier way.

If you change the links in your navbar to be relative links rather than absolute links, then you will stay on whatever domain you entered the site so you can login on username.smugmug.com and stay there while you work on your site. You would change your navbar to this:

<div id="navcontainer">
<ul>
<li><a href="/">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="/Portraits">Portraits</a></li>
<li><a href="/weddings">Weddings</a></li>
<li><a href="/pets">Pets</a></li>
<li><a href="/artistic images">Artistic Images</a></li>
<li><a href="/information">Information</a></li>
</ul>
</div>

And, any other links you specify in your site, you'd do the same thing. Just strip off the domain and make sure it starts with a "/". For example, the clickUrl in your slideshow definition should be changed to:

clickUrl: '/',

Thank you a bunch!

One more question along those same lines...is there a way to navigate to galleries that aren't linked to my nav bar? Like my slideshow images gallery...I don't want that to be in a catagory or gallery that customers access, but is there a way I can get to it without going through the rigamarole that I posted about above?
