While signed in, use title-row Share on Home for Share link (public URL) or Private link (unlisted), and Private Links on My Home Bar for full link management. See Share button.

Password protect your home page

Add a guest password to your Home page if you want to restrict public access to your album listing. This password should be different from your account password and is intended only for visitor access.

Click on "Edit My Home"
Enter your guest password. Make sure it is different than your account password.
Click "Submit" when finished.

If you choose to use the same guest password for any of your albums, your visitors will not have to reenter the guest password to visit the album.

You may also include the guest password in the URL to your Homepage. Your guests will not be required to enter a guest password to visit to your Homepage.

Append the following to the URL: "?pa=<GUESTPASSWORD>"

For example if your username is "smithfamily" and guest password to album is "family", your URL will be: https://imageevent.com/smithfamily?pa=family
