If someone clicks on one of my slideshow photos, I would like that photo to open at a large size with the caption showing, rather than having the click take the person to the slideshow gallery. How to accomplish this?
Also, how is it that when clicking on a sideshow photo, the person's brought to the slideshow gallery which is unlisted? This happens in owner & visitor view.
Help appreciated.

You have this parameter in your slideshow definition:
clickToImage: 'true',
This configures the slideshow to take the user to that image in it's gallery when they click on the slideshow. You can remove this parameter and it will not take the user to the gallery. I don't know any way to have you taken just to the larger view of the image without access to the gallery.
An unlisted gallery is like an unlisted phone number. It's not listed in the gallery listing, but if you give someone the URL, they can visit it to their heart's content. In this case, if you let them go to the gallery via the clickToImage parameter, then they are allowed to see the whole gallery.

Thanks, John. of course your info worked, as always, but I have another question re: this. What if I want to enable the click through feature, but instead of the click through taking someone to the slide show-bio box gallery, I want it to click through to another gallery; specifically my "special menion" where are slide show photos are replicated?

Is it possible to make all slide show photos click through to the above gallery?
Thanks.

Thanks. Instead of the clickToImage parameter, use the clickURL parameter as described here (http://wiki.smugmug.net/display/SmugMug/Flash+Slideshow). This will make all clicks go to the same URL.
