hi all,
i tried to search the forums about this topic but nothing came up.
So, basically I need a tool that let me "hide" some photos from the site, but do not completly delete them. Like a "on-off" switch that i can adjust everytime i feel i need to.
is there anything that does the trick? thank you very much

In order to hide an image, all you need to do is edit the image details in your PP admin and change the post date to sometime in the future, i.e. change the year to 3 years from now. Then they won't show up.

i tried but it didn't work well. The images disappear from the archive, wich is good - but the images are still there when i go to the homepage of my photoblog. any suggestions?

If you are still logged in to your admin panel, then you will see the images. After changing the date, log out, then go check. You shouldn't see them anymore.

PP lets the blog owner see images that are posted in the future so that they can preview the post, as long as they are logged in.
