Top-Level Gallery -- Error 403 Forbidden
Hi,
after trying out the new backlight pages module I tried to publish my first top-level gallery but failed with an error. I guess it is just an error in reasoning so this is my workflow:
1.) Create a new publishing instance in Lightroom (in my case: gallery_europe)
2.) Create a new gallery (in my case: Test)
3.) Add a picture and publish
4.) Log into the backlight backend
5.) Backlight -> Publisher -> Top-level Galleries
6.) Europe appears (0 Album Sets, 1 Album)
7.) If I click on "View" it fails with an error 403 (You don't have permission to access /gallery_europe/ on this server.)
The album itself is working. After checking this matter using FTP I figured out that the top-level gallery folder is empty and only the subfolder for the gallery contains PHP files and stuff)
I know I am doing something wrong but I can't figure it out.
--> screenshot FTP (backlight is the subdomain starting folder, not the "backend" folder)

Can you try clicking on Backlight > Publisher, and then Update Album Files and then confirm to update the files?
That should copy over any files into the album/set directories that are missing.

Re: Top-Level Gallery -- Error 403 Forbidden
Well, that's really a solution, but you shouldn't have needed to have done that. It's not something that you have missed. That function is mainly intended to repair things, and shouldn't be needed in normal usage.
