email icon : emailing the galleries page goes to home page
Sorry for so many posts ~ scouring my site and trying to work out the bugs!
The social networking bar on the top left works wonderfully for sharing pages and images. However, it breaks the link to the actual galleries page when trying to share the galleries page. Instead of sharing the galleries page it shares the home page. It does work for other pages, just not the galleries.php
On email sharing it shows this in the message : Galleries
http://www.kristenwestlake.net
.. but sends the link to the homepage.
Thanks!

Re: email icon : emailing the galleries page goes to home page
on my test site I'm seeing that for any of the included pages in Pages, the link included in the email goes to the home page.
I'm actually seeing the same thing with your site, like on the Contact page. Your About autoindex page doesn't create a link in the email at all, just this in the subject line: &Body=
I checked an album set on my test site and the email icon works as expected. But when I tried the autoindex template used for that album set, I see the same thing in the subject line: &Body= with nothing in the body of the message.
Link to autoindex template: http://ce4.barbeephoto.com/ttg-be/templ … -template/
link to corresponding album set: http://ce4.barbeephoto.com/galleries/album-set-2/

Re: email icon : emailing the galleries page goes to home page
I see what you are talking about Rod.
I like the auto index sharing with the
Subject in the subject line
and the subject again over the link in the body to the actual page.
Will have to figure out why this isn't happening in all instances and why the included pages in pages go to the home page versus the actual page.
More to noodle on

Re: email icon : emailing the galleries page goes to home page
So it looks as though this is the case: When emailed:
The indexes created by pages sends just a link to the home page with subject line and body.
The indexes created by LR autoindex sends the link but with no subject or body
The indexes created via publisher instances creates perfectly with the subject line, body and the link.

Re: email icon : emailing the galleries page goes to home page
I should probably be using CURRENTPAGEURL instead of CURRENTPAGELOCATION for this ...

Hi Matthew,
Is that something that I can do or will it be in a future update?
Thanks!
