Collections

A collection is a series: a place, a year, a project. Each public collection is a page of its own on your website, once a public photograph is in it.

Make a collection

1. Open Photographs, then the Collections tab.
2. Press New collection, give it a title and, if you like, a description.
3. Press Make collection.

Add photographs to it

1. Open a photograph from Photographs.
2. Under Collections, tick the collections it belongs in.
3. Press Save collections.

To add many at once, press Select on the Photographs page, tick the photographs, then press Add to collection…. Remove from collection… takes them out again.

Order, cover and layout

• Open a collection on the Collections tab and press Arrange photographs. Drag a photograph into place (on a phone, press and hold it first), use the arrows, or type a number: 1 puts it first. Choose Cover on the photograph for the collection’s card (or leave it on Cover: the first photograph), then press Save order and cover.
• A private photograph is not shown in a collection until you make it public.
• With more than one collection, put the collections themselves in order under The order on your site, then press Save the order.
• Each collection has a Layout (Follow the site, Even, Editorial, Justified rows or Wide) and On your site, Shown or Hidden. Press Save after changing them.

Good to know

• Changes to a collection’s title, order and cover are live on your website as soon as you save them.
• Delete collection removes the collection only. Every photograph in it is still kept.
• A collection can have a profile for bulk uploads. See Bulk upload.
