To post a comment to the Utah-Astronomy picture gallery (as opposed to this Utah-Astronomy list) one must first pass a simple test to "prove" the poster is a human and not a web bot. Well, it seems either a pretty smart bot or a human with lots of time on their hands took the test and then posted a bunch of stupid comments on Rob's album. I've removed the messages and checked to see if anyone else's album had the same problem. None did so I guess Rob just attracts weird people <g>. While making those checks I saw that a few folks besides Rob have their albums set up to accept comments from those not logged on to the system. So I've come up with a checklist to help folks to either turn the option on or off. To set an album so it will not accept comments do the following. To set an album so it WILL accept comments (which the album owner can later delete) do the same as below except when you get to step 6 you will want to ADD "Add comment" instead of delete it. 1) Go to the Utah-Astronomy Gallery at: http://gallery.utahastronomy.com/main.php 2) Go to your album. 3) Login to your album using either of the "Login" buttons on the page. 4) Click on the "Edit" button at the extreme lower left corner of the page. 5) Go to the "Edit Album" section at the top of the page and click on the "Theme" button. 6) Read down through the lengthy list of options. Every place you see "Add comment" in one of the white boxes click on it and then click on the "Remove" button to the right. 7) Once you have changed all the setting you want, go to the bottom left corner of the page and click on "Save Theme Settings". If the system accepts your changes the words "Successfully saved theme settings" should show up in the upper left corner of the page. 8) To make sure the changes were what you want: a. Go to the upper right corner of the page and click on "Logout". b. Quit (do not just close) your browser. c. Relaunch your browser. d. Go back to the Gallery at: http://gallery.utahastronomy.com/main.php e. Go to your album but DO NOT login. f. See if the "Add comment" icon (looks kind of like a squarish voice balloon with an "x" in it's corner) appears anywhere on the page and/or near any of the images before or after you click on them. Questions? Comments? Please let me know. Carpe Noctem! patrick
