Album Types (Auto vs. Web/PC Only)

With FotoSync, you have the ability to control exactly how or when albums appear on the FotoTime website. With a combination of album types and the published indicators, you have complete control over how/when albums and pictures are displayed.

The three album types are:

  1. Auto: This is the default album type and will ensure that any published pictures in the album will cause the album to appear on the website. If no published pictures exist in the album, then it will not appear on the FotoTime website.
  2. PC-Only: This type of album is designed to prevent the album from being added to the FotoTime website. If the album is already on the website, it will NOT remove it (you can remove it yourself manually). The primary use of this album type is to ensure that even if published pictures exist in the album, it will not be added to the website. Even pictures that may be published in other albums will not appear in this album.
  3. Web-Only: This album type is useful for albums that you want to place on the FotoTime website and not keep on your system any more. Removal of the album from your PC will NOT remove them from the FotoTime website. In addition, when you sync, the album/pictures will not be brought back to your PC. However, if the album already exists on a PC, then it will behave very similar to the Auto album in that changes to the album will be synced.
