Email Photos Directly Into A Photo Folder

Getting photos from your school community is a huge part of creating an awesome yearbook. We have a great way for parents, students, teachers, and others to provide photos. You can provide them with a link which enables them to email photos directly into a photo folder. This is how to access the links for photo folders.

1. Select Content.

2. In School Photos, select the photo folder for photos emailed by the school community.

Note:  Select Editor Only Folders If you do not want the school community to see the photos uploaded. All photos uploaded to Editor Only Folders will only be seen by the yearbook team.

3. In the menu, select Get Email Link.

4. The email link for the folder has been copied to your clipboard. Select OK.

5. The link will be similar to this:

notification.photos.xxxxxxxxx@treeringphotos.com

6. The parent must send their photos using the email address in their Treering account. After the parent sends the photo they will receive an email notification from Treering.

Notes:

1. Parents, students, teachers and others who are already in the school community with their email address can open the link and start a new email. The new email is where they will attach their photos or add them to the body of the email. When they send the email, the photos will be added to the appropriate shared folder. (Basically parents need to be entered into the school community with an email address to be able to email photos to a folder. When a parent is added to the community they will receive an invitation email so they can activate their email/account. Parents who have not gone through the activation process can still email photos to folders because their email is in our system.)
2. Parents should not use links to the photos.
3. Parents should not add any additional email addresses to the TO/CC line when emailing the photos. The images will not be processed.
4. Parents, students, teachers, and others and their email addresses need to be entered into the school community list, but their email/account does not need to be activated in Treering for this to work.
5. If the link is shared with someone who is not in your school community and they use it, their email will not be routed to Treering and their photos will not be delivered to the shared folder.
6. There is not a designated number of photos which can be emailed at one time. It is based on photo file sizes and what the email provider will allow.
