Hey everyone,
it's pretty common for me to share a folder and allow to upload/edit files there. I haven't found this option here, but only the "share link to album" button. Uploaded photos/videos should be uploaded to import-folder, indexed and automatically added to shared album as I understand it right.
Background example: Provide friends a shared album to upload vacation photos/videos.
Acceptance Criteria:
@graciousgrey commented on GitHub (Oct 21, 2020):
@al13nus Advanced sharing is something we plan for the future. We want to provide settings with each sharing link that allow you to determine whether users can view/add or edit photos in the shared album.
@al13nus commented on GitHub (Oct 27, 2020):
@graciousgrey do you have some kind of Roadmap/Timeline online?
@graciousgrey commented on GitHub (Oct 28, 2020):
@al13nus Not yet. Currently we are super busy with building our backend. Once this is done we plan to add a list with planned features on our homepage, so that people can vote for the topics that are most important for them.
@graciousgrey commented on GitHub (Nov 25, 2020):
Related to https://github.com/photoprism/photoprism/issues/406
@graciousgrey commented on GitHub (Nov 26, 2020):
@al13nus We just added our roadmap https://github.com/photoprism/photoprism/projects/5 feel free to vote for ideas that are of value for you!

From issue #758:
I think this is an important feature. Whenever I have an event with friends or family I want them to share the photos they took with me. I would like to be able to generate a public album link where my friends could also upload the photos and videos they took to a certain album just like you can do with Google Photos (logged in), or MEGAdrop.
I think it would be also important for this feature that the uploader enters their name wherever so it gets added to the "Author" metadata field.
This is what I imagine the option should look like:

I imagine something like this for the album (with uploads allowed) page:

And this when the user wants to upload:

Maybe it would be important for the link to have a expiry date by default when this option is set, so it is not open forever.
@streiman commented on GitHub (Mar 24, 2021):
It would be great to have an option to share also private pictures in a folder (which are at the moment shown in the folder but not when using the shared link). Of course this should default to "no private pictures" for privacy reasons.
@lrq3000 commented on GitHub (Sep 18, 2021):
This would exactly solve the use case I wanted to implement! @pluja 's mock-up is especially convincing!
Until then, I guess a workaround can be done by using the (beta) multi users feature: #98
@muety commented on GitHub (Jan 21, 2022):
Having anonymous users be able to upload pictures to a shared album would be a must-have feature for me. I'd really appreciate its implementation! 🚀
@DennyWeinberg commented on GitHub (Feb 9, 2022):
A public shared album WITH a map view would be awesome!! Photo Prism will even compete with Polarsteps then.
@DennyWeinberg commented on GitHub (Feb 13, 2022):
I've developed a service which displays your shared album on a map. Check it out here:

@pizzidellamaremma commented on GitHub (Oct 29, 2022):
I would love to have the map visualization on a shared album.
@lastzero commented on GitHub (Oct 29, 2022):
Did you try our development preview yet?
@pizzidellamaremma commented on GitHub (Oct 29, 2022):
Nope, but I'm going right now.
EDIT: On the album I have shared the feature is not working because photos aren't tagged in "States" subcategory, Iceland has no states (I'm guessing)
@shooftie commented on GitHub (Jul 2, 2023):
This feature is the feature that is preventing me from jumping ship and migrating across to PhotoPrism.
@lrq3000, can you briefly explain how #98 is the solution? As far as I can work out, any user with the ability to upload also has some light administrative permissions e.g. control over their profile settings, etc. I've just spent the past few days trawling the issues and road map and still can't get my head around it.
I don't mind my family having login credentials with "user" status i.e. the ability to manage their own account, but the obstacle of creating a profile for anyone that has photos of interest is insurmountable.
My use-case was my wedding; loads of guests with loads of photos. I would have liked to have created a 'public' album, albeit one behind an expiring URL, into which guests could upload their photos/videos and view/download the photos of the other guests for a period of time.
@MarSan2021 commented on GitHub (Jul 2, 2023):
For me the same - please implement this feature, then we will immediatly use this great solution!
@euroborne commented on GitHub (Jul 10, 2024):
Hi, I see a hint of this in the title, but must have missed any comments on the subject of sharing albums without including metadata. More specifically, imagine a public share where people can see the photos, perhaps with a date and time taken, but without location, camera or lens brands and models, maybe exposure settings. Ideally configurable details to be tailored to personal needs. Sharing with photography enthusiasts might call for different selection from sharing with work colleagues, or even family who might just want to see photos and don't care about anything else. Thanks.
@ArminXG commented on GitHub (Jul 28, 2025):
After almost 5 years, is there any progress or plan to implement this feature?
Allowing someone to upload photos without creating a user and giving rights to all photos is a must have.
