I am working on doing a major site clean up by removing old galleries is there a way to delete multiple galleries? When I go to my galleries sometimes the tools button is missing so I cannot get to the delete gallery option.
What is a good way to delete multiple galleries?

Hello Dennis,

I'm sorry, we don't have a multiple gallery delete tool, it must be done one by one.

With best regards,
Ryan W.

This is a long shot but... do any of the pages with the tools button missing have the breadcrumb removed with CSS like this?

Code:

#breadcrumb { display: none; }

That removes the tools button too.

No and when I did have that type of code it would be enabled only when I was logged out.

The code is not specific to visitors and you use it for your homepage:
.homepage #breadcrumb{
display: none;
}
With that the Tools button, among other things, is removed for you as the owner as well.

Dennis -
Have you removed the galleries already? If you haven't, I just had a thought - you could set them to unlisted which would remove them from view for everyone but you as the signed in owner. Understand that if you set them to unlisted viewers who already have a link to the gallery would still be able to see it.

It looks like you can use the the "multiple galleries" option to set the galleries to unlisted. See the Need to change settings on lots of galleries? on this help page - http://help.smugmug.com/customer/por...lery-settings-.

If you're needing to delete multiple galleries, I've created a tool to do so, but I haven't fully tested it. If you want to try it, PM me.
