    Slideshow Theme

    Hi there, I'm just running a trial of Zenfolio and so far I really like it. I am wondering how I can customize the slideshow theme so it looks the same as the rest of my pages. I don't see any option for this? Also, is there some way to make a certain theme the default so I don't have to go through and apply that theme to each album and page? If I check off "use default theme" will it revert to a default or can I choose which theme will be my default?

    Thanks.

    Re: Slideshow Theme

     when 'customizing visitor view' and changing themes and settings, the little 'use defaults' checkbox will set everything to the default setting.  make your changes and get your page type (there are groups, galleries, and photo page types) the way you want it, then at the right end of the yellow customize menu bar you will see "Save Settings as Default".  Click that and it will make the page theme and options you just set, the default type for each similar page type.  if you save as default for a gallery page, then all your gallery pages that have the checkbox checked for 'use default settings' will match what you just set for this gallery page... follow that?   :)

    Janet,

    All Slideshows currently look identical, regardless of your chosen theme. For now, there is no way to customize the Slideshow to a theme, though it is a very good suggestion. I personaly wish we could have a more "elegant" way of displaying the image titles/captions in the slideshow than the little dude with the cartoon bubble, or at least the option to hide him all together, but that's me...

    I will champion your suggestion for themed slideshows!
