What is this?
An album can contain folders, such as “Rehearsal”, “Concert” and “Backstage”. The folders appear above the photos in the album, each with the number of items inside. A folder opens like an album within the album. Folders can contain more folders.
How to create a folder
- On the web, open the album under “Media”.
- Click ··· at the top and then “New folder”. If there are folders already, you also find the “New folder” tile next to them.
- Enter a name and confirm.
The new folder is created where you are: in the album or in the open folder.
Opening folders and going back

Putting media into a folder

- Drag: On the web, drag a photo onto a folder tile.

Renaming or deleting a folder
Open the folder and choose “Rename folder” or “Delete folder” in the ··· menu at the top. Deleting also removes all subfolders, photos and videos inside.
