Site only visible to those logged in??

Lychee version

Which PHP version are you using?

PHP 8.4

Detailed description of the problem

When my gallery site loads, it pops up a login requirement. Clicking cancel to not login, results in not showing my galleries.
I don't want viewers to have to sign in, I want my galleries viewable publicly. It's loading through directories /public/gallery as the main webpage.
How do I make my site visible without requiring a login, which no one who visits my site is going to do....and I don't want them to be logging in and potentially uploading their own images. I'm not making a social media site for hundreds of people. I want to share my photos on my own personal website?
Why are none of the Softaculous image galleries designed for solely the host user to share to the public?

Or so it seems. How do I fix this MAJOR usability problem?

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Open website
2. Login screen pops up, I don't want that.
3. If canceling the login, the gallery is inaccessible to the viewer

Ok, I did find the toggles to make the galleries viewable to anonymous users.
But I still don't want the public to be able to login...

If a gallery does not have any publicly accessible albums, Login is the only option.
Once an album is marked as public (and not hidden), the login pop-up will not be shown.

As long as you set a strong enough password, they won't be able to.
