Archiving and deleting

Archiving takes a photograph off your website and out of sale, and keeps everything else, so you can restore it later. Deleting takes it out of your Photographs, and can’t be undone from Studio.

Archive a photograph

1. Open Photographs and open the photograph.
2. Under Archive or delete, press Archive.

It comes off your website, and out of your website draft wherever you used it. You find it again under the Archived tab.

Restore a photograph

1. Open Photographs, then the Archived tab, and open the photograph.
2. Press Restore to Photographs.
3. Choose it again wherever you want it on your website.

Delete a photograph

1. Open the photograph.
2. Under Archive or delete, type “delete” in the box.
3. Press Delete.

It comes out of your Photographs, your collections and your website, and any product made from it is taken off sale. You can’t undo this from Studio.

Good to know

• A photograph that has been ordered cannot be deleted. STIL LAB keeps the file that was sold. You can still archive it.
• An upload that did not finish, or a file STIL LAB could not read, is removed with one press: Remove it from my Photographs, at the top of its page. If it is already in a product, its page asks you to type “delete” instead, which takes that product down too.
• A published photograph that is archived shows Needs attention · it’s archived, so customers can’t see it.
• To stop selling a photograph for a while without archiving it, see Pausing a product.
