Delete photo

What is this?

With Delete photo you remove individual images from an album — duplicates, blurry shots or photos where someone has asked for removal afterwards. The photo is permanently removed and cannot be restored.

Other photos in the album stay unchanged. If you want to delete the whole album, use "Delete album" instead.

How to delete a photo

1. Open the "Photos" area and click the desired album.
2. Click the photo to open the detail view.
3. Pick "Delete photo" in the context menu or via the three-dot button.
4. Confirm the safety prompt.
5. The photo disappears immediately from the album.

Delete multiple photos at once (web only)

1. Open the album.
2. Click "Select" at the top right.
3. Mark all photos that should be deleted.
4. Click "Delete selection" and confirm.

When to delete photos

• Privacy requests — when someone does not want to appear on a public photo
• Duplicate shots or variations where the best one is enough
• Blurry or poorly lit photos that lower the album quality
• Wrong photos in the wrong album by mistake

Permission

You need photo_albums.edit to delete photos. By default choir directors, the board and photo administrators have this permission.

Tips

• Back up photos beforehand if you might need them later — gone is gone.
• Check the selection carefully on bulk deletion before clicking "Delete".
• Respond to privacy requests quickly — a short reply to the requester builds trust.
