Photo Album Folders

URL parameters will also work if you want to embed folders of Photo Albums from your Keep&Share account. Using these parameters, you can embed a collection of Photo Albums and control their initial viewing style and size at the folder level.

When you embed a folder of Photo Albums, you will be able to navigate to individual Photo Albums within that folder and go through the photos in them. Below is an example of an embedded folder of Photo Albums.

Notice that now when you click on a Photo Album in the Folder of Photo Albums, there is now a link that appears in the upper right-hand corner of the Photo Albums that says "Back to Albums". This allows you to navigate back to the embedded folder with all of your Photo Albums.

Finding the Photo Album folder embed code

First you will need to find the embed code for your folder of Photo Albums. Follow the instructions below:

Once you have copied the folder embed code, it will look similiar to the code below:

Right now each individual Photo Album within this folder will have whatever viewing style and photo size that you last saved the individual album in. When you apply size and Photo Album viewing style URL parameters to a folder of Photo Albums, every Photo Album in that folder will display your chosen parameters, regardless of what state your Photo Albums were last saved in. The URL parameters give you a way to give your Photo Albums a consistent style without having to edit each Photo Album individually.

Using Viewing Style URL Parameters

The Photo Album parameters for viewing styles are:

• Light Table: "&vo=lt"
• Film Strip: "&vo=fs"
• Blog: "&vo=bl"
• Scatter Blog: "&vo=sc"
• Slide Show: "&vo=ss" (no auto play)
• Slide Show: slow autoplay: "&vo=ss1" for slow autoplay
• Slide Show: medium autoplay: "&vo=ss2" for medium autoplay
• Slide Show: fast autoplay: "&vo=ss3" for fast autoplay

You can add any of these Photo Album viewing styles to your folder embed code. In the example below, a viewing style has been added to the folder embed code. The added URL parameter is in bold and the entire folder link that you add the URL parameter to is in yellow.

Using Size URL Parameters

The Photo Album parameters for size are:

• Small Photo Size — "&vs=s"
• Medium Photo Size — "&vs=m"
• Large Photo Size — "&vs=l"

When you add any of these size parameters to your embeded folder code, all of the Photos within each Photo Album in that embedded folder will have the same size.

Combining URL Parameters

You can combine URL parameters for size and viewing styles and add them to your Photo Album folder embed code. This allows you maximum control over the appearance of your Photos and Photo Albums.

All you need to do is add both URL parameters to the end of the link for your folder of Photo Albums. The link to the folder of Photo Albums is highlighted in yellow in the example below.

Additional Folder URL Parameters

You can use other parameters in your embedded folder code to control how your folder looks and works. Below is a chart of what parameters you can use and how to use them.
