# Albums: many files, one link

Upload several files at once and share them as one album link with a gallery view and a single ZIP download.

An album puts many files behind one link. Send one address and the people you share it with see every file in a gallery, can open any of them, and can save them all as one ZIP. Each file in the album also keeps its own link.

## Create an album by uploading several files

- ### Drop several files at once On the homepage or from **Upload file** on your dashboard, drop more than one file on the upload card, or select several in **Choose a file**. The card says it: drop several at once and they become one album link.

- ### Name the album Type a name in the collection name field, for example “Project files”. A name is required when you upload more than one file.

- ### Publish Each file uploads and gets its own link. When they are done you see **Your album is ready**, with the album link, a QR code and **Copy album link**. If you were signed out, you sign in with Google first and the files publish after sign-in, the same as a single file.

Drop several files at once to make an album

### Or group links you already have

On your dashboard, open the **Albums** tab and click **New album**. Give it a name, then add files with **Upload new** or pick from **Existing links**. You need at least one file or link to create the album.

## What people see on the album page

An album link starts with `lisview.com/b/` followed by a short code. It opens in any browser with no account. The page shows the album name, how many files it holds and their total size.

- **Gallery:** every file as a tile. Click one to open it in the album, then use **Gallery** to go back to the grid.

- **Download all:** saves every file as one ZIP, in a single click.

- **Per file:** copy that file's own link, or download just that file.

- **Share:** share the album link itself.

The ZIP follows each file's rules

**Download all** only includes files the visitor could already open one by one. A file that is turned off, expired, locked with its own password or still under review is left out of the ZIP.

## Manage an album

In the **Albums** tab, open an album's menu. **Rename & edit files** lets you change the name and add or remove files. **Password & settings** opens **Album settings**:

| Setting | What it does | Plan |

| Password protect | Visitors must enter a password to open the album. | All plans |

| Expiry date | The album turns off on a date you pick. | All plans |

| Allow downloads | Off makes the album view-only: no Download all and no per-file download buttons. | All plans |

| Album enabled | Turn the album link off for everyone, and back on. | All plans |

Deleting an album does not delete its files. Your links stay, they are just no longer grouped. The same menu also has **QR code**, **Share** and **Analytics** for the album.

## Album limits

| | Every plan |

| Number of albums | Unlimited |

| Size of one album | 500 MB |

- Every file in an album is a link of its own, so it counts toward your plan's link limit and storage.

- If the files you pick add up to more than 500 MB, the upload stops before it starts. Remove a file or split them into two albums.

- On Free, your total storage limit applies first. See [Plans and limits](https://linkinseconds.com/docs/plans-and-limits).
