Hello/Hi/Greetings,

Environment:
running piwigo 13.1.0 on nginx with php8.1-fpm. Relevant installed plugins are LocalFiles Editor, GDThumb, and PWG Stuffs. As stated in title, the stripped-responsive theme is used with interface set to "black"

I have one single category/album where every picture lands. the images get tags and visitors are supposed to browse through the photos by those.

What I'm trying to achieve:
I want two blocks from PWG Stuffs to be displayed on the front/main/home page, one with general info about the site and another one with some selected pictures as "appetiser" (and ofc to transport this is a site centered around my photography).

The issue:
As I do not intend my visitors to directly interact with the "pool album", I don't want it to show up on the home page. But so far every approach I tried either had no effect at all or led to undesired side effects.
Apparently the display of the albums section is handled by a template from the GDThumb plugin instead of the theme template and/but I am unable to find either the call that only handles the albums or a CSS handle that will only affect the display of albums/categories. So far I only managed to suppress any display of thumbnails anywhere on the page or the album display being utterly unimpressed by my doings.

One way I found was to turn off what is called "Main block" in PWG stuffs, but unfortunately that also handles the arrangement of elements to display on the home page and I wasn't able to separate those two purposes.

I'm thankful for any hints at this point that would lead me into the right direction on solving this.

Edit: Setting the album to private also disables the pictures from being accessible to (guest) visitors, so this isn't an option in my case.
