Subsites

From Doc

Subsites allow you to create multiple site in addition to your main site you.phanfare.com, such as you.phanfare.com/soccerteam you.phanfare.com/client1, or you.phanfare.com/coworkers, etc. Each of these subsites can have its own optional password and can contain any subset of your phanfare albums.

Subsites can only be created from the Phanfare web interface at www.phanfare.com. The Phanfare PC and Mac clients have links back to the web for subsite management.

Sharing subsites via Phanfare's email tools

Phanfare's email tools are all subsite aware. If you share a link to an album, you will be given the option of also allowing access to either your main site or a Phanfare subsite that contains the album.

An example: If you have an album called "Baseball championship" and that albums appears both on your main site at you.phanfare.com and on your subsite, you.phanfare.com/baseball, then you can invite people to see the album in one of 3 ways:

  • an isolated link that shows only that album
  • an invitation to your main site at you.phanfare.com
  • an invitation to your subsite at you.phanfare.com/baseball

These three options are shown on the bottom left of the sharing invitation during composition.
