Photo Sharing
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
## How do I share a photo?
|
|
You can share a photo by clicking the arrow button at the photo's page or in the gallery. This will show the options to share the photo.
|
|
|
|
## Where can I share a photo to?
|
|
Right now we support sharing via HTML embeds, email, Facebook, or Twitter. We want to add more sites, so let us know where you want to share your photos.
|
|
|
|
## How do I share a photo's link via HTML?
|
|
When viewing a photo, click the Share arrow and select the 'Embed in Blog' button. A box will appear with the HTML you can use to embed the photo in your blog, forums, or anywhere else. Copy this HTML, then paste it to wherever you'd like.
|
|
|
|
## How do I share a private photo or album?
|
|
You can share a private photo in the same way that you'd share a public photo or album. When you share a private item, a sharing token is added to the photo URL. The recipient can then use the full URL to view the photo without logging in or remembering a password.
|
|
|
|
## Wait, sharing tokens? How do those work?
|
|
A sharing token is a private URL that lets another person view a private photo. When you share a photo, a sharing token in the photo's URL enables other users to view your photo. Think of it as a password to a private photo, but in the URL. You can revoke a sharing token anytime in your settings.
|
|
|
|
## Can I share an album instead of a photo?
|
|
Yes. Click the Share button that appears when hovering over an album's summary, then share in the same way you'd share a photo.
|
|
|
|
## What happens when I share an album?
|
|
The album's URL contains a sharing token. The recipient will be able to see the album and the full contents of the album, even if those photos are private.
|
|
|
|
## What happens when I share an album with private photos?
|
|
The recipient will be able to see the album and the contents of the album, including any private photos.
|
|
|
|
## I changed my mind about sharing a photo or album. How can I revoke its sharing token?
|
|
In the Sharing Tokens section of your settings, find the photo ID of the photo whose token you want to revoke. Click Revoke, and your sharing token will no longer work.
|
|
Don't know where the photo ID is? Look at the photo's URL. The URL looks like yourusername.trovebox.com/p/PhotoID, where PhotoID is the photo ID. The Photo ID does not include the sharing token in the URL.
