To view visitors

The Manage Visitors page lists all Webshare user accounts and summaries their permissions.

  1. Log on to the HP Photo Webshare.
  2. For more information, see Logging on to HP Photo Webshare.
  3. Click Visitors in the upper right corner of the HP Photo Webshare to view a list of visitors and the following information.
  4. The Visitor link is visible for Webshare Managers only. Visitors do not see the Visitor link when they log on to Webshare.
    • User name—unique identifier for each visitor. User names can only be used once. Initially the user name is their users email address.
    • First name—the visitor’s first name.
    • Last name—the visitor’s surname.
    • Add photos—gives visitors the ability to add photos to an album. Visitors with add photos permission must logon to the Webshare with a user name and password. If the visitor also has auto-approve ability, there are no limitations on the size or quantity of files that the visitor can add.
    • If the visitor does not have auto-approve ability, a Webshare Manager must approve added photos and videos before other visitors can see them. Visitors without auto-approve ability have a limited amount of disk space that they can use for uploading photos and video before they are approved by a Webshare Manager.
    • Save photos—gives visitors the ability to select, size, and save photos from the HP Photo Webshare to their computer. For more information, see Saving photos.
    • Auto-approve—automatically approves photos added to an album by this visitor. Use caution when giving visitors this permission. Auto-approved photos and videos are immediately viewable by all visitors with access to that album.
    • For additional information, see Adding photos to your album.
    • Email—enables the visitor to be notified of new or changed albums. The visitor must have an email address to receive notifications. For additional information on notifications, see Sharing an album.
      • Note
       

      In the footer of the email notification there is an option for visitors to unsubscribe if they do not want to receive future notifications. When visitors unsubscribe, the check mark is cleared from this option.

    • Delete—click the trash can to remove the visitor.
      • Note
       

      Webshare Managers user accounts cannot be deleted from within HP Photo Webshare.

    • Edit—click to change visitor information. All visitor information can be changed except for the user name.
    • If you need to change the user name, you must delete the visitor and create them again. Be sure to add the visitor back to the appropriate groups after they are re-created.
