Deleting galleries and photos is permanent

In short: deleted photos and galleries are gone for good — there is no trash and no undo. That’s why deleting always asks first. To only close a gallery for the client, set Access until instead.

Delete photos

Section titled “Delete photos”
  1. Select the photos in the grid (click, Shift + click, or a frame — see Ordering photos).
  2. Click Delete on the bottom bar (or press Delete).
  3. Confirm Delete in Delete N photos?
Section titled “Delete a gallery”
  1. Open the gallery and click Danger zone at the bottom of the settings.
  2. Click Delete gallery.
  3. Type the gallery’s title under Type the gallery title to confirm.
  4. Click Delete forever.

The gallery, all its photos and sections are deleted. The link stops working: the client sees that the gallery is unavailable.

Delete on a date

Section titled “Delete on a date”

To have a gallery deleted later, set Delete gallery on in Dates. See Access-until and delete-on dates.

Not the same as deleting

Section titled “Not the same as deleting”
  • Access until — the client can no longer open the gallery, but nothing is deleted. You can reopen it.
  • Delete section — the photos stay in the gallery, just without a section.
  • Allow downloads off — the client can still view, but not save.
