I was disappointed to find, when logging in recently, that the Share button has some links for slideshows and encourages people to post them on social networking sites. If I wanted to share my photos, I would have used Flickr. I would really prefer to hide this button or feature, but I cannot find out how to do it.

I don't think you can disable this button. I hope some more experienced with zenfolio will let us know for sure.

Here is the way to hide the “Share” button.

Select the gallery you don’t want to share, then select “Customize Visitor View” and select “Options”. In the “Page Elements” part, at the top of the window, select “hide” for the “Share button”.

Hope it helps, Best regards , Jean-Marc

Thank you Jean-Marc. I was expecting to find it among the global options that appear for the home page, so I had missed that.

Thanks!  Very helpful.

 Just don't use it. It's only visible when you logged in. For other users, they don't see it.

I don't see it as an issue at all.

sonnyc,

actually if it is set to 'show', then visitors to your site CAN see it and use it... without being logged in to anything.

Yes, it's seen at all times. however, your customers/visitors will not see direct links to individual photos.
