Re: How do I remove this icon?

That's a permalink icon,

Unfortunately, I don't think it can be removed.

Re: How do I remove this icon?

that's the image permalink icon. Permalinks are good to have for SEO as well as social media. I don't think you can remove it using the plug-in. Looks like Matt's still working on the documentation for that.
You might be able to remove it using jQuery though.

Re: How do I remove this icon?

Hi Rod, cheers for the reply.

SEO isn't important for me as I'm using it slightly differently - as a client gallery.

Would just be nice if I could remove it as people are going to click it without knowing what it is.

Rod - I also notice that you don't have the link on your galleries? Any clues?

Re: How do I remove this icon?

which galleries? My main site is still CE3.

I've just spent the last 20 minutes or so trying to figure out the css selectors to remove that icon using JQuery. So far, no luck as it's still appearing in the albums on my CE4 test site.

Re: How do I remove this icon?

On my test site, I can disable the download link with a little CSS

.hs-controls-right li:last-child {
    display: none;
}

Re: How do I remove this icon?

This will depend on other settings. If you've got Image Download enabled, that icon will be removed instead.

I suppose you could use nth child?

Re: How do I remove this icon?

Some gallery images should never be able to be linked to directly, or rather should not be 'encouraged' to by the ease of a permalink,  such as children's galleries.

It just flags up the fact that images (even those in password protected galleries) are actually publicly visible with a direct link - perma or otherwise.

Permalinks are only really suited to blog images.

Re: How do I remove this icon?

every image in any TTG gallery already has a permalink, whether a link to it is displayed or not. This makes it easier for people to share images on social media, something folks have been asking for.

But, like Daniel has demonstrated, you can at least remove the link with custom css.

Re: How do I remove this icon?

if you've also got image downloads enabled, try this css:

.hs-controls-right li:nth-child(even) {
display:none;
}

actually, you can probably use this regardless.

Re: How do I remove this icon?

As Rod said, if one knows the link to an image even in password protected galleries, he/she can see the image. More about password protection is at http://ce4.theturninggate.net/docs/doku … _obscurity.

It just flags up the fact that images (even those in password protected galleries) are actually publicly visible with a direct link - perma or otherwise.

Single-image pages are passworded protected, same as the thumbnail page. The only way to bypass that password protection is by a direct URL to the JPG, not to the page, which is the case with or without permalinks.

Given that we have, by user request, supported permalinks in galleries in one form or another for several product generations and a whole bunch of years, I'd have to disagree.

Re: How do I remove this icon?

I understand the reason for permalinks but the user should be able to turn them off if not needed. In my workflow I don't want them.
The method described above for turning off permalinks doesn't work in Highslide mode as it removes also the rightmost navigation button on the top.
In the Popup Large Image Presentation the permalinks don't work, I get a 404-error. And, dependent of filename structure, the many files of type "*single.html" clutter the folder, they should go in a subfolder anyway.
So PLEASE give us the possibility to turn off permalinks if we don't use them.

Re: How do I remove this icon?

it will probably work if you get more specific with the selector. Try adding #hsId2 in front of the other selectors and also use a number in nth-child rather than "even". This number will depend on how many icons appear, which depends on what features you've enabled, like social media sharing for images:

#hsId2 .hs-controls-right li:nth-child(9)  {
    display: none;
}

Re: How do I remove this icon?

Permalink permanence is one of the reasons I have decided to stay with CE3 and not update to CE4.  I have certain private galleries that I cannot have customers permalinking in to.  Blog, yes.

Re: How do I remove this icon?

Great! Thank you Matthew for 6.1.1. Another question: is it possible to turn off the box-shadow in Highslide UI controls.  I would like a clean page with no shadows.

Re: How do I remove this icon?

I didn't even realize there was a box-shadow on the large images. Had to reduce the background overlay quite a bit to see it. Even then it's hard to see.

try adding this to custom css:

.highslide-wrapper {
    box-shadow: none;
    }

Re: How do I remove this icon?

That didn't work for me. However I found this working:

.highslide-controls, 
.hs-info-overlay {
        box-shadow: none;
}

But I'd prefer if there would be an option in the LR interface
