Put SMUGSEARCH in your navbar code, and i'll be right there in the same div. How would that be?

to remove the share button go to gallery tools and customize gallery, and turn sharing off.

Can not remove “this is a brand new gallery with no photos” at the bottom of the page

add this to your CSS:

.nophotos {display: none;}
.loggedIn .nophotos {display: block;}

Hi Andy,

Where do I find this code?

I think I found the code:

<html>
<!-- Site Keyword Search -->
<form name="suggest" action="/keyword/jump.mg">
<div id="keywordSearch">search
<input autocomplete="off" maxLength=256 size=25 name="Keyword" value="" onfocus="InstallAC(document.suggest,document.suggest.Keywor d,document.suggest.submitButton,'suggestRPC.mg','e n')" />
<input type=submit value="keyword search" name="submitButton" class="buttons" />
******** src="/include/js/keywordsuggest.js"></********></div>
</form>
<!-- End Site Keyword Search -->
</html>

And I placed in with the code for my nav bar

Is this correct?

No, just add

SMUGSEARCH as a li in your navbar :)

Sharing is off on the About us page and the slideshow button still appears.

Thanks

ThanksSharing will only suppress the share button.

Found a few things in your CSS that don't belong there.
Start by removing all this from your CSS.
Edit: this is probably why your CSS is not working.

<div id="navcontainer>

<!-- Site Keyword Search -->

<form name="suggest" action="/keyword/jump.mg">

<div id="keywordSearch">search

<input autocomplete="off" maxLength=256 size=25 name="Keyword" value="" onfocus="InstallAC(document.suggest,document.suggest.Keywor d,document.suggest.submitButton,'suggestRPC.mg','e n')" />

<input type=submit value="keyword search" name="submitButton" class="buttons" />

<script src="/include/js/keywordsuggest.js"></script>></div>

</form>

<!-- End Site Keyword Search -->

You are using the Carbonite theme and your nav does not work with it. I'd suggest switching to
another theme to get you site working.

.menu {width:748px; position:relative; z-index:99; padding-bottom:30px; _padding-bottom:18px; margin:0 auto;}

.menu ul li a, .menu ul li a:visited {display:block; text-decoration:none;

border:1px solid #D5B790; border-width:1px 1px 1px 1px;
background:transparent; padding-left:0px; line-height:20px;
font-family:"Gentium","Times New Roman", times, serif; font-size:12px;}


* /The page jumps when the dropdown is selected. Is there a way to
stop this?/This is caused by the Carbonite theme, try switching themes. The nav you're using doesn't work with this theme.


You have two of these in your javascript, remove the last one.

function hasPath(sPath)
{
re = new RegExp("\/" + sPath + "(\/|$)");
return re.test(window.location)
}

There is also other js errors. Re-paste the slideshow javascript code in again.


This will remove the page nav for your journal style pages. Add in your gallery number.

.gallery_xxxxxxxx #albumNav_top {display: none;}
.gallery_xxxxxxxx #albumNav_bottom {display: none;}

The share button in included in the breadcrumb div. Although you should
be able to turn off the share button under "customize gallery".

.gallery_xxxxxxxx #breadcrumb {display: none;}
.loggedIn .gallery_xxxxxxxx #breadcrumb {display: block;}


Go to this page and you should be able to edit the description. Click in the edit box
and "select all", copy and paste into notepad first. You have something unclosed
in there.

You have two menu div's, remove one of them, and only one closing div so your whole page thinks in it.
<div class="menu">


You're also missing two closing }'s in your js.

function ModifyText (){
if (YD.hasClass(document.body, "gallery_4185048"))
{
var objElement = YD.get("comment")
if (objElement != null)
{
var str = new String(objElement.innerHTML);
str = str.replace(/\gallery/gi, 'guestbook');
objElement.innerHTML = str;
}
