hiding subalbum in menu
Hello,
I am new to Piwigo. I wonder if it is possible to hide the sub albums from the dropdown menu (so that only albums are shown)? This is because I have a lot of sub albums and the menu would be very very long if it shows all of them.
Also, I wonder if i could do "Tag" search without an album?
Thank you very much in advance!

Re: hiding subalbum in menu
Hello ! You should find an option in the profile management, to develop or not all albums.

Re: hiding subalbum in menu
Many thanks for the reply.
Sorry my question may not have been clear enough. What i meant to ask was, would it be possible for me to show all the sub albums as they are inside the parent albums, but have the MENU only showing the albums, not sub albums?

Re: hiding subalbum in menu
Look here : https://photos.revestou.fr/
Only main albums in the menu. (meaning first level albums)
Any sub-album can be accessed via its parent album. Sub-albums are not hidden. (If I had wanted to hide any, I would have made it private)
Here is how I config all users accounts, including Guest, which is for not-connected.

Re: hiding subalbum in menu
Yes this is what I want to do, but I haven't looked at all the pages on the dashboard and cannot find this page. Would you mind telling me where it is?
Really appreciate your help!

Re: hiding subalbum in menu
It's in Users -> Manage, Edit guest user, Expand all albums. It's for not logged in visitors and also used as default for new registered users.

Re: hiding subalbum in menu
That is for Guests. But if you want to edit all users accounts so that nobody see sub-albums in the menu, you can do it via the list of your users.
