Sharing albums
As you create an album, you can choose to share it with other NAS users (choose
whether all NAS users can edit the album, or only the album creator/administrator can
edit the album) or the public (show this album on the QTS login page and please note
that this option is only available for administrator,) or not to share at all (leave both
options unchecked), and set the valid period on the album creation page
.
Note :
As an administrator of the Photo Station, you can also share a public album on
the NAS login screen (the photo wall style login screen can be set in "Control
Panel" > "General Settings" > "Login Screen".)
If an album is set to share with the public, users can click the photo wall on the
login page to check the album.
If an album is set to share with the public, you can right click that album and select
"Email" to email it, "Publish" to publish it on social networking sites, or "Sharing Links" to
generate and paste the album link on your blog, forum, or instant messenger programs.
You can still edit the album content later, and the updated slideshows will be presented
when viewers click the same link again.
