Albums — Content

PixCrowd Hub · Content → Albums → Select an album → Content

Control which photos appear in an album, how they are ordered, and what guests can see or download.

Open the Content tab

In PixCrowd Hub, select your event.
In the event sidebar, go to Content → Albums.
Select the album you want to configure.
Open the Content tab beside Appearance and Share.

Photo sources

Choose how the album receives photos:

All event photos — Includes all approved photos from the event. This option is suitable when the album should reflect the full event collection.
Manual selection — Includes only photos specifically added to this album. Use this option for a curated collection, such as highlights or a reception album.

To add photos to a manually curated album, open Content → Photos, select the desired photos, and use Add to Album.

Note: When moderation is enabled, the All event photos option includes approved photos, not photos still awaiting review.

Photo sorting

Choose the order in which album photos appear:

Newest first — Shows the most recently uploaded photos first.
Oldest first — Shows earlier uploads first.

This setting changes the display order, not the photos themselves.

Show photo info

Turn Show photo info on to display captions beneath photos. Choose which details to include:

Guest name — Shows the guest's name, when available.
Upload date — Shows the date the photo was uploaded.

Turn Show photo info off to display photos without captions. The two checkboxes let you choose which information appears when captions are enabled.

Allow downloads

Turn Allow downloads on to give the guest photo viewer a download button. Turn it off to hide it.

Important: Disabling the download button does not prevent someone from saving a photo they can already view, such as by taking a screenshot.

Photo limit (optional)

Enter a number in Photo limit to restrict how many photos are displayed in this album.

Leave the field empty to show all photos included by the album's source selection and other settings. The photo limit controls the album display; it is separate from the event's overall photo allowance.

Save or discard changes

Select Save changes to apply your album content settings.
Select Discard changes to abandon unsaved edits.

Use View as guest from the album page to review how the album appears to visitors.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between All event photos and Manual selection?

All event photos automatically includes approved event photos. Manual selection shows only photos deliberately added to that album.

Can I hide guest names but still show upload dates?

Yes. Enable Show photo info, uncheck Guest name, and check Upload date.

Does turning off downloads make photos impossible to save?

No. It removes the download button but cannot prevent other ways of saving visible images.

Does the album photo limit change my event's photo quota?

No. It controls the number of photos displayed in this album, not the number of photos the event can store.
