Post Gallery to Facebook

Hi

Is there a way to post a link of a gallery on Facebook?

Thanks

Hi Pat,

Sure, go into your gallery and click on Share -> Be Social and you can share to Facebook there or you can try out our beta feature called Publish to Facebook. Read up on Be Social here and on the beta feature here.

With best regards,

Thanks Ryan. I had a look, unless I am mistaken, I can only share a picture? How do I share a complete gallery?

Sorry Ryan. What I meant was sharing a link to a gallery not sharing the pictures .

Hi Pat,

If you take a look at this screenshot you will see what happens when you post on Facebook. Clicking on any of those links will take you to a lightbox link of the image.

So in essence, you aren't putting the image on Facebook, you are just posting a link and it's a link to the image and the gallery. If you want to publish a whole gallery to Facebook, our beta 'Publish to Facebook' feature will publish the whole gallery there in an album, just as if you had uploaded it to Facebook directly.

Let me know if that answers your questions

Thanks Ryan.
Your test shows one picture so I am concluding if I had 14 pictures in the gallery I am trying to share in FB, the shared link in FB will take viewers to the entire gallery? Just confirming. Will try later when I get home.

Hi Pat,

Yes, like the second link I posted shows, you will be taken to a lightbox view of the image you posted but once you close that you have the whole gallery accessible.
