When I first setup Backlight I made the mistake of adding, “galleries” to the “Top-level sets directory” under “Other Publisher Options” in Lightroom Publishing Manager. Now all my galleries have a URL like this:
It looks like you’ve installed Backlight into the “Galleries” folder.
By doing this, you’re stuck with what you have unless you want to start over.
It would be easy, but you would have to re-publish everything I believe.
You wouldn’t need to start over with the design since you can export your templates and import into the new install.
You would want to copy any page text into a text file for recreating page text.
It’s the answer I expected. I am changing web hosts shortly and I may use that as an opportunity to republish all the galleries on the new site before I redirect the domain. Do I understand that I should just leave the “Top-level sets Directory” field empty in Lightroom?
The problem is that Backlight was installed in a sub-folder (in this case, “Galleries”), and the name of that folder will be in the url of all albums, sets, and pages created.o
Backlight should be installed in the root of the site
I am now having a different problem and will start a new thread if you want me to. I signed up for a new hosting site at Hostinger. I have not yet redirected the domain so I can work on the new site before making it live. I was able to install Backlight 5. Hostinger provides a preview system before the domain is directed so I can go to:
