Publish to Facebook has changed... now it is useless...

wslam

I used to be able to click Publish to Facebook and the old Smugmug would allow me to choose photos from that gallery to share on Facebook, including password protected galleries.
Now I only have the option to Share to FB, and it immediately pops up a FB share post window?! Where did the old style of publish to FB go?

It took me a while to find it but the old (and actually useful) publish to Facebook now lives in organize. It's the little square with an arrow coming out button.

Select a photo and it will no longer be greyed out.

You need to select a picture for it to become active

Thank you, just figured it out before you replied. Thanks again.

Thank you for all the replies.
But the function you are all referring to, Share to FB, is NOT what I was referring to.
In the 'old' Smugmug, you can PUBLISH to FB. THAt function is gone!
I can no longer MULTIPLE SELECT and then PUBLISH.

Oja

Yes you can. It is in organize in the publish button. Select the images you want to publish (you can select multiple images at once), hit the button and it pulls up the old interface for uploading to Facebook into a facebook (page) album.

Multiple select BTW is done using the command key on Macs. No idea what key you use on windows but it is likely the same as for multiple selection in explorer.

Thank you but I do not see Publish under Organize. What am I missing? See attached image.

Click on organize, then go to the gallery in question. You can then select multople images, then click the share button and it brings up the old "publish to FB" dialog.

Thanks so much. Never would have found this.

THANK YOU! I finally Found it! It's under ORGANIZE SITE! now that is REALLY not intuitive!

Indeed! Took me a long time to find too.

It does not work for me. I choose "create new album". I fill in the new album name and album description. Then when I click save it does not show up in the publish interface. I try and click publish and it says 'Please select an album' but I already did select one!! The interface is broken. VERY VERY frustrating. Help.

edit: think I figured it out. It is a bug with new smugmug and chrome. Chrome won't show me the "you need to log into facebook' button. I only see that in firefox. It is still a bug you guys need to fix.

damn this is a stupid new way to publish to facebook...please fix this so it's like before. this is horrid.

The Facebook interface is not broken. After you have your gallery created and filled with photos, open it in organizer and select the photos you want to publish. Then click the share icon at the top and that will take you to publish to Facebook.
