Can't see galleries? What's up with not being able to access some galleries today? I have been trying to catch up with my commenting only to keep getting page error messages?

This is probably related to the other forum topic about galleries. Jim M chimed in and said they were looking into it.

You can still post, the pancake thingy on any BP page still works, you just can't see what you posted. Something is way wrong, I'm thinking.

I can see my gallery now and the letter I received said that the style was changed because it was causing technical difficulties. Does this mean we can no longer change the background and presentation? Hmmmm....

Mine was changed to the old version too. I was not having any trouble viewing mine like some of you were over the last few days. You would think we would be told why this was done.

I checked the Gallery Settings and I'm no longer able to switch back and forth from basic to the newer style. BP has removed the newer-style option for gallery display.

Hi my friends, In case you did not get my email, here it is: (but first, let me clarify... I'm working on new mobile-friendly galleries. This is really important. It's a big project, but it's a high priority... so the change I made today is just to make sure everyone can see their gallery... until we have the mobile-friendly design created). Have a good weekend! Thanks P.S. Here's the email I sent today: We've just changed the display style. The old style was causing a technical problem that blocked people from seeing or updating their gallery. What's more: the gallery was not "mobile-friendly". Google is making it very clear that they will be giving mobile-friendly web pages better rankings in search results. So it's a top priority here at BetterPhoto to make the galleries and websites mobile-friendly as soon as possible. All of your information and photos are intact... we've only changed the display style and will be updating it again soon, to be mobile friendly. If there are any features that you love in our upcoming revision, feel free to help me know. Together, let's update the photo galleries at BetterPhoto to make them even better (and seen by even more people). Jim Miotke

All my albums are gone- as well as the option to create albums. I really loved that feature which made it easy to find old photos. Please add that feature back!

I've not been able to switch back and forth for gallery display for a very long time! Which I have wanted to from time to time. But that aside....I've looked around in settings to see where that option is or was and to be honest, I can't find it!! LoL! It's been so long since I've tried to use that option that I can't remember where it's at. Since before the actual site changes. and... I STILL have no gallery view. I sure hope it's fixed soon. Seems weird to post and not be able to see how it looks in your gallery. Thanks Jim for the email regarding the changes though! It's appreciated!! :)

Kathy, I compared your gallery's URL to mine. Yours: http://www.betterphoto.com/gallery/big.php?photoID=14909062&catID=&style=&rowNumber=1&memberID=299253 Mine: http://www.betterphoto.com/gallery/gallery.php?memberID=121358 Your is much longer than mine. So, I thought I'd try to substitute your member number into mine; e.g., http://www.betterphoto.com/gallery/gallery.php?memberID=299253 And when I did, the web page reverted back to the same image you have. It's as if your member ID is associated/hardwired to the URL I pasted at the beginning of my comment. Strange. I was hoping that by simply substituting your member ID with mine, that you could at least see all your photos, even though folks that click your gallery would still see the last image. Hopefully BP can sort this out soon, for everyone!

I heard from BP this morning and they told me to go into the Gallery Settings and to turn the "Gallery bypass display" on. Somehow it was reset to one photo at a time. I don't like this style of gallery at all. If someone else cannot see their gallery you could try this!!

I Still cannot see my gallery......I did however try this gallery bypass thing, and it shows one large picture....which I Do NOT Like! I don't understand and I must say I'm getting quite frustrated. I've tried to contact BP through email and on their facebook page.....no response.

Some of you are disappointed because the folders option no longer works. Personally I don't like browsing through folders. I spend much less time browsing images in a Better Photo gallery that is sorted by folders. I never know which folder to look into and there is no way to quickly scan page after page of images. I don't like the small distorted thumbnails that appear on the side when a picture is opened. I think the old style gallery presents much better.

I agree with Irene regarding the folders. But ... my gallery used to have pictures on the black background with just 8 images on each page that looked like photographs on the walls of a real gallery. Now it’s basic and totally flat. I am really disappointed. After all I payed for the appearance I wanted. Can we, at least, have a choice of background color (black or dark gray would be perfect)? I don’t know how long it will take to fix the BP galleries. I just know that my friends and I do not like the appearance of my gallery now.

Natasha, I agree that our photos look much nicer against a dark background. When images are opened in the discussion window they look very nice against the dark grey background. I know we are not supposed to type code into our gallery settings but I changed my background color long ago so it is not white. If BP gives that option in the future maybe my gallery will get screwed up because I've already colored my gallery with coding.

I spent an enormous amount of time organizing all my almost 800 images into albums. I even had business card printed with the link to my gallery explaining that there are albums for food, pets, babies, landscapes, etc etc. Customers could simply check out the album they were interested in. This saved them from having to search through all of my photos. I've sent an email asking whether or not I will get my albums back and have not received a response. Does anyone know whether or not this is temporary? Doesn't seem right that I paid money for a specific product and now they've pretty much taken that away from me. Would love an answer, I can't be the only one frustrated with this.

Barbara, here's what Jim Miotke said in another forum thread on this same topic: "The galleries are not going back to the way they were. We have to move on to a new solution because the Internet audience is "going mobile". It may take some time but we will have the new mobile-friendly gallery in the future." We need Jim to update us on how the new mobile-friendly gallery will impact the desktop version of BP. Sounds like it won't look like it used to but hopefully they'll have some folder options with easy organization.

Thank you. I understand the need to be mobile friendly, however I don't understand why this requires the removal of albums.
