Faq # 30

[Glenn P]

I followed FAQ #30 in an attempt to make a guestbook/contact page, I did add one photo and typed in some text. But I have a couple of quick questions.

1. Since this is not really a gallery, I'd like to only have it show up on the navbar. I put in this CSS code, since I thought it would remove the gallery from the galleries page? But that didn't happen. I'm sure I'm not understanding the use of the phrase, "remove from page navigation".

.gallery_contact .pageNav {
display: none;
}

2. I'd like to have this contact page as part of my navbar, I've added the contact name to the navbar but I'm thinking I have to do that share photo with forums/blogs procedure to get a location to point to, s. Is that right?

Thanks very much,

Glenn

Put the gallery number in this like this .gallery_123456 not contact

.gallery_contact .pageNav {
display: none;
}

Set the gallery to private under customize gallery and it will not show on the galleries page.

For your nav use a link like this. Put in your gallery number.

<li><a href="/gallery_1234567">contact</a></li>

The gallery numbers above might need the security key added to it.
Generic examples shown.
/gallery_123456_gdjeg or .gallery_123456_gdjrh

If you post a link to your site it would be easier to help.

Allen,

Sorry I forgot to include a link, www.glennpittard.com (http://www.glennpittard.com). I added the code you included in your post and made the gallery private but I've missed something along the way. I get a page cannot be displayed error when clicking on the contact link in the navbar.

Thanks for your time.

This is what you have in your nav html.

<li><a href="http://GlennPittard.smugmug.com/photos/258514795_Qr9bJ-S.jpg%3Econtact%3C/a%3E%3C/li%3E%0D%0A%3Cli%3E%3Ca%20href=" http:="" glennpittard.smugmug.com="">Contact</a></li>

You need to link to the gallery and making it private, only a direct link will work so we can't find it.

<li><a href="/gallery_xxxxxx_xxxxx">contact</a></li>

Sorry Al, I'm just not getting it.

In your header nav html the link needs to be fixed. Post the link
to the contact gallery and I'll show how it should look in your nav html.

I think we are on different pages. It's the link for the contact in your menu
that needs to be fixed. A photo does not go in the link, the gallery does.

Allen,

I'm a moron but I finally got it :barb . Thanks for your patience. Do I dare ask how to move the Email Me link from my existing navbar into the new contact area we just got together?

Best,

Glenn

You could put this in the caption.

TEST TEST TEST<br />
<a href="javascript:norobotmail('glenn.pittard', 'midcurrent.com')">Email me</a>
</html>

Yep, got that done.

I notice on my other galleries I was able to remove the large smug mug footer and a few other bullet points here and there. How do I make the same adjustments to this gallery page, since it's primarily just a how to contact me and brief description of me page I'd like to remove references such as Gallery Page 1, buy photos, etc, view cart, etc. I know I did that in the other galleries but I we set this one up a little differently so I'm guessing it has to be treated as it's own page?

Thanks again Allen, very helpful.
