Re: Guest Album

Have a look under the Backlight > Settings > Manage Users menu item.

Re: Guest Album

Thank you
Is there any way that the password has to be entered each time the album is viewed. I have set up a test album and once the password has been entered it can be views without using a password.

Re: Guest Album

I think you'll need to close and reopen the browser for the password to be required again

Re: Guest Album

My apologies for providing the wrong advice. I had read that as guest *admin* and not guest album. Logins for albums are set up in the album settings within Lightroom.

Re: Guest Album

This is a quick an dirty option to delete the password cookies for the "Backlight powered domain" after closing the tab or leaving for another URL (outside the page)

1.) Enable "PHPlugins" for your template
2.) Insert the following code

function ttg_scripts( $style, $path ) { 
session_destroy();
}

3.) Enjoy

PLEASE NOTE: Wait for one of the TTG team to double check this solution (although it is working for me) because I don't know if this will affect any other open tabs!
