Sharing Photos, Videos, and Galleries in Website Builder
NOTE: This article is for Website Builder version 6. Your version displays at the top of the screen when you log in to your Website Builder account. Not using version 6? Search for Website Builder version 7 articles.
Once you've published your Photo Album, Website Builder creates hyperlinks to your public galleries and photos and videos. These hyperlinks remain valid as long as your Photo Album is published.
You can create hyperlinks to galleries, individual photos, and videos, and to all photos associated with a tag. You can share these hyperlinks with friends and family so they can view your photos and videos as often as they want.
NOTE: Your galleries must be published for you to share.
